Why I like saidit. It doesn't have downvotes, and that is pro free-speech. When you have downvotes that discourages people from speaking up. We don't need downvotes. If someone says something dumb here, then it just won't rise up, and that's enough. There doesn't need to be double punishment.

I like it too, but there are some unbelievably retarded Jew haters on here

And people obsessed with Antifa and BLM. Someone posted a link about antifa setting fire to a pigs head on /s/animals.

These people post enough of that garbage to other subs it shouldn't even be in like news, politics, world news.

I like saidit but so much of the content is garbage, posted multiple times to different subs.

And what is the obsession with Ellen? I've seen the same thing about her posted several times.

Exactly. Repetitive misplaced shite. I left Reddit to go to a BETTER site, not to babysit a worse one

There is no site worse than Reddit. Reddit doesn't even represent reality, it's worse than being imprisoned in a liberal arts private college run only for trannies and their allies, why do you like it at all?

I don't anymore. I didn't used to be like that, it has only gotten that way in recent years. It might change again after the US elections. But I'd hate to see Saidit going just as extreme in the opposite direction. Saidit actually has a chance of being a good reputable conservative site. Lets not let it descend into a KKK circlejerk.

Are moderators unable to curate at all? Not quite sure how saidit works just yet.

I don't know either. With Saidit being so small right now, you'd think the mods could control things a bit better and create an expectation for what the site should be like. Now is the time.

It really gets to be a fine line when it comes to censorship, but yes I agree that I don't want constant "i hate jews" type crap in my sub. At the same time, I'm here because reddit banned all feminist communities that refused to jump on the "men can be women" bandwagon. At the same time, there's a difference between saying that I don't think biological men should be considered women just because they say they're women, and saying "i hate all transpeople" or "all transpeople are evil because they're trans". I think reddit similarly is blocking any discussions that discuss their definition of "oppressed" groups as bad actors, even when said discussions are about individuals acting badly or ideologies as a whole.

I just ignore those posts and try and post cool things and engage in comments.

If I want saidit to be better I have to do better as well.

Oh man I am so sick of hearing about antifa, BLM, and Jews on here. It's every bit as dumb, pointless, and obnoxious as the left constantly whining about Trump on reddit.

We get it guys, you don't like those groups. Tell me something new, fun, or educational.

[–]BigFatRetard 4 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 0 fun5 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

To be fair, after months of riots I think the world is sick of antifa and BLM.

Sure would be nice if we could wave a magic wand and make it all stop being current events, but the mayors and governors approve of it all so they refuse to enforce the law.

[–]forgottenpasswordguy 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

I see your point. Especially lately where people are protesting police shootings that were clearly justified for example. I feel like there's no more ground to cover though. The conversations on BLM, covid, etc have gone on long enough to have the same talking points over and over, I'm just ready to talk about something else while this madness burns out. Plus I don't believe these groups and events are as big and influential as people like to think.

Why don't YOU come up with things that are new fun and educational? That way your amazing posts will drown out all the low quality stuff on the front page.

[–]forgottenpasswordguy 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Good point, I share a bit here and there but nothing too exciting. That said if I find or think of something great I'll be happy to share it, I want this community to turn out awesome.

And people obsessed with Antifa and BLM.

And what is the obsession with Ellen?

Why do people have to be broken records about it though? There's no more ground to cover, it's been the same stupid shit every day. Next subject I say!

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

You sure it's not because you disagree with it and hate seeing it exposed?

Ellen is a pretty big deal. As big as Bill Cosby. She was the far left superstar for ages, and now it's come out that she was a completely horrible person, and treated people like shit all the time. That's gonna be a big story for a long time.

If you're referring to hollywood and epstein and all of that junk, I'm sure. Screw hollywood and their trashy culture, let it fall apart.
