Even if Saidit is where these subs go to die, it's the only option when the assholes' side have WON. They've made it clear that those who say the emperor is naked will be beheaded, and everyone has to agree it's the finest clothing in the world, it's the greatest thing ever, and beg to suck the emperor's covered dick.

Even if no one comes here, the only hope is that this move by the power mods is proof they're going mad with power, and as they do, they'll only ban more sites that don't bow down to them and solely be about their ideology, and the more they ban, the more come here.

Well said. I really don’t like this whole “but this shows we’re winning” way some people are trying to cope with this. We’ve lost, there’s no way around it. The only way that woke ideology ends is in something horrible for everyone, and then we’ll probably be under the jackboot of something every bit as awful, just different.

I think it's moving towards the end, but only because sooner or later the real life effects will show themselves. What happens when thousands of detransitioning girls speak up about being led into gender affirming surgery and hormones as teens, rendering them sterile and disfigured? I hate the thought but there's a gender hangover coming. And I'm fearful, as a gay dude, that the rage will not be just towards the media and gender health pipeline but the gay community itself by associaton.

Troons own reddit. Trying to argue with them there is like sitting in someone's kitchen bitching about their cooking. It's not a fight you can win.

But the fight isn't on reddit. It's in the real world.

And at least then, the one positive is the same people fighting hard on Reddit would keel over asking the cashier at Burger King for additional ketchup...aka the one way we haven't had open war.

Nah, they can ban subs but most people don't actually agree with them. If Musk actually acquires Twitter just watch how people's real opinions explode.

Is Musk planning on making Twitter more open to free speech? Why?

Yup, he plans to strictly limit permanent suspensions and make it totally free speech.

That is IMO why its so threatening to progressives. Imagine Twitter where the anti-woke can freely express their positions without fear of moderation for "hate speech." It would be an enormous blow to the woke's attempts to suppress speech.
