A lot of people on this community already had a problem with WOTB being in /s/all. Actually a lot of saidit has a problem with reddit users being in saidit in general.

The Reddit culture has affected everyone that's a regular.
Association influences people, and conservative views are brutalized there, and conservative people are associate with actual evil intent.

Going along to get along changes a person. What was unacceptable at Reddit years ago is now the norm. It will continue to degrade, and degrade the expectations of the community. This isn't a criticisms of you.

It's difficult to see the changes in ones self in this midst.

Things will never go back to the way it was before the strike. It was bad enough then.

You don't know what you don't know. There are very few remains places on the Internet where actual facts can be discussed openly, where new visitors can be exposed to them.

Cloistering away from s/all is a step away from learning about what really has us all enslaved. That truth simply cannot be discussed on Reddit.

Being in /s/all requires that /s/WayOfTheBern respect saidit's guidelines. But not being in /s/all allows you guys to do much pretty much whatever tf you want as long as it's not illegal.

I think the mods prefered the ability to shadow ban rather than being on all.

It is easier to ban someone, than to get 50,000 complaints from people who are blistered by moonbeans.

They are busy as it is, and they're used to this reaction being regarded as legitimate.
As long as the people regard it as legitimate.

Saidit certainly questions the legitimacy of censorship, etc. As you can see.

I strongly suspect the WotB mods each have it in them to be a benevolent leader. Although that takes way more effort, and time, etc. They're the mods of a culture of relative dissent. They are themselves victims of censorship, etc.

That's not the solution to the society they want to live in.

Suppression of other voices is part of Reddit culture. Let's call it neoReddit, because this Reddit isn't who you guys were. Hopefully, not are.

Censorships is something that people there became accustomed to. But there's a fundamental contradiction that eliminates the possibly of a solution.

It prevents the WotB from knowning the who/what/why of the system. Prevents the discussion of legitimate solutions that are powerful beyond comprehension for most.

Without accusation from me; censorship is a moral crime. I'm not pointing fingers.

Everyone deserves freedom of exchange of ideas, and freedom comes with reading what's regarded by some as bullshit.

That can only occur one way.

There's a philosophical reason for 1st amendment primacy among "classical liberal thought".

If this was reddit your community would simply get banned. Here on Saidit you just stop getting free advertising.

That's funny, and true.

But, we also have the freedom of thought, and debate, and the chance to learn information that the wealthy and powerful don't want us to know.

Censorship it's the tool of the powerful.

Information is the shield of the people.

Everyone deserves this fundamental right. Without it, we're doomed to slavery.

I was shadowbanned from r/Conservative when I requested my flair. Conservatives are only allowed there if they're the liberal kind. It's just another shitlib sub now
