WTF? So this is a "grassroots" pro-censorship movement? I was a little ashamed it took me till 2018 to nuke my reddit account, but now I feel ahead of the curve.

You are ahead of the curve, cause the curve is broad and change doesn't come easily.
Help shorten other's curve. Invite your trusted Reddit folks you knew and invite them here. Reddit is still good for that.

Nobody delete their Reddit. What they did was encourage us to leave our box. Get your red pill memes ready.

Wow and the automoderator deletions say "Your comment was removed because it isn't the phrase 'I fully support banout 2018' Feel free to make a new comment showing your support of this great cause."

Pretty snarky. Not a good sign

Do you think all the censorship will even wake people up to what is going on?

We need to support open and free internet and take back our internet rights.

It depends. Socially conscious folks will likely recognize it, and many will leave. Individuals who are actively looking for signs/signals will bail out quickly, and closing popular forums is a less than subtle signal, so the Exodus has begun.
However, it will take a lot to get the majority of Redditors to realize what is happening, and mant don't care. Just like when Info Wars was deplatformed. Many people are shortsighted and refuse to believe that they're next. It will take even more for most to take action and move on from Reddit.

For some it definitely will

Checking in. Still finding my way around.

It's an equivalent forum-sphere. Cept for the curse-sed downvote bullshit.
