I knew I was getting banned for that one, but totally worth it. :D

That's the only purpose those threads serve.

Doing God's work. I too love to piss them off on any platform I find myself in. It is extremely easy.

Good for you man, sometimes you just need to take a stand for what you believe in. I was banned from AskReddit too, which is concerning because they used to be a very difficult sub to get banned from. 5-6 years of reddit, me being me, and I only got banned there recently. I think that points to new and less tolerant moderation.

  1. Mods ... restrict users' posting privileges ... if [their comments are] deemed detrimental ... to the experience of others.

This is the same as Saidit's rules/guidelines for the PoD

One of my favorite rules in a sub at Saidit is that mods at /s/debatealtright can ban you if you are "arguing in bad faith", which I think can apply to anything. I had various discussions about this last month, but now cannot find the same language in the sidebar at /s/debatealtright.

I think reddit is being deliberately run down by military intelligence because they see open discussion amongst so many millions of users a threat to rule by the oligarchy they support. For that reason they install their own mod teams who arbitrarily censor everything and everyone knowing such toxicity will run everyone off break up the entire platform.

You can go to pretty much any sub on reddit and find the mod teams have no interest in the sub topic at all. Their only purpose is censorship. That is in direct contradiction to the original reddit premise of individuals creating subs to build communities that share their own interests and pastimes.

That was pretty obvious the day it was bought out by Chinese interests.

I sometimes wonder how it still seems there are a lot of based comments on reddit if you sort by controversial, when I got banned many times for comments that are a lot more benign, it could be they let some go on purpose from bots designed to be based in order to get people to think it's ok to talk freely and then get banned for their true thoughts, because like you said they want to deliberately run it down and make people afraid to talk freely on the internet. I'm still on reddit with other names but I watch what I say and just use it to talk about stuff that doesn't matter much like my hobbies, not politics and things like that.

There's some degree of tolerance, albeit while walking a fine line and being held to a far higher standard if you're not on the left. I used to post at KotakuInAction, but quit that and Reddit when it became clear that being on Reddit was like sharing a home with your abuser, hoping if you behave yourself that tonight they'll drink themselves to sleep without first beating you.

There's just no point in putting in the time to build a community that can at any moment be wiped away for transgressing the party. That said, I wouldn't discouraging people from engaging over at Reddit. There's some value in engaging reasonably where normal people can see that the supposed Nazis are actually normal people whose views were perfectly fine barely a decade ago.

Update: I posted this to s/SocialJusticeInAction and it had a pretty good run there until...

Not to be that guy but your comment goes very much against the spirit of the thread, nobody asked for retarded politics bullshit to be brought into a harmless banter thread. You come across as a 12 yo kid who has watched too many videos of ben shapiro owning libtards.

Ha, gay.
