You know what made reddit shitty? It wasn't the dev team (they were shitty too), it wasn't the website flaws, and it wasn't the banwave of censorship. It was the people. It was you guys.

On a slightly related note, it seems after the last ban-wave, quite a few of concern trolling posts like the OP have started appearing around here.

While I'm personally not in favor of the truly moronic anti-semitic comments that appear on some /s/all posts, it's still crucial that the way they're dealt with is not removal, but upvoting comments calling them out instead.

The much more worrying trend is threads like this starting to pop up, especially from new accounts (who claim to be reddit refugees, but cannot be verified).

This is how hostile infiltration of any platform starts - we need to be extremely vigilant, and remind people of this very thing.
So far the users here have been calling out the bullshit - it's important we remember to not relent on this, as the shills sure as hell wont.

    You get better /s/all content by subbing to your favorite non-political subs and upvoting apolitical content there.

    I want to make it clear that the functional members of the alt-right want this gone as well (we'd like removal of the incels too). Ideally, I'd like a platform that promotes rationalism above all else with a calm and collected user base.
