I don't actually mind the presence of conspiracy subs, but I would like a site that consists of more than JUST said people. General discussion is important.

If you start a general discussion then you will get one. If you are having problems with people saying things in your general discussions that you would rather have censored because you think they are conspiracy theories then you shouldn't leave Reddit.

Nobody said anything about censoring people, calm your tits.

Yes, let us remember to communicate, and to do good, for these are the kinds of sacrifices that please God. I hope you find like-minded people who want to speak the truth.

like if you want to discuss sports or movies, and not in a controversial way, why not do so at reddit?

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (1 child)

Or games. Reddit is great, they have a sub for every game, and a few for the stock market. Beyond that... No, thanks.

Nah, even the games subreddits are becoming politicised, or suffer from mods who feel the need to micromanage every single post with a thousand rules.

Because we're banned from reddit like 99% of everyone who didn't manage to become a default mod. And when we were on reddit the mods didn't ever let us do anything and often banned us.

why would you get banned from reddit if making vanilla posts

[–]Vulptex 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (5 children)

Because the mods didn't like my post

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (4 children)

yeah must have been a controversial political or conspiracy post then

Or it was crossposted from a subreddit they don't like, or you got in the way of the mods' karmawhoring, or they don't like you, or they don't like the topic, or they consider it not "high quality" enough. Or if you don't have more karma than GallowBoob and your account isn't older than /u/reddit.

i know what you mean but all subs on reddit have to follow their strict rules so it might not even be the mods fault and it isn't personal but they have to ban you or they themselves get banned. I'd be like ok ban me but they have the moral failing where they love the power of being a mod too much

[–]Vulptex 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

No, notice how all the mods on every major subreddit are exactly the same. And notice how they mod certain subs with admins. And notice how their submissions and comments and subreddits are suspiciously more visible than everyone elses'.

They've also had several "default mods only" chats with the admins, which was proven after someone leaked them talking about editing peoples' comments on /r/The_Donald with spez. The admins even admitted to plotting one of the major banwaves with them, I'll see if I can find it. Some of them are just labor pawns but there is definitely an upper echelon of collusion between certain powermods and admins.

reddit is done, I mean it is just for talking about on controversial stuff now. Maybe you can post on r/conspiracy but they ban you quick there too, it can be interesting to read posts there tho sometimes. So that'd be my recommenation if you still want to make lame boring vanilla posts, can't here as they get no traction, but make a new name and do that at reddit, then discuss high IQ important topics here.

I don't think it's unreasonable to want a single network which contains all the content, instead of needing to go to a different site for anything that the majority of one site doesn't like.

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Oh, you're right. We just haven't grown to the point where we can have a sub for each game.

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

that's reddit

there are subs here, go try to make a post on sports or movies, no one will reply
