Endorsement requires providing an active promotion of an item, person, or idea.

Meanwhile, if legalizing/decriminalizing something is an endorsement, then I would argue anything short of killing people is an endorsement of their beliefs, opinions, or ideological views. Decriminalizing or legalizing is a passive toleration just as letting people live whom share things you despise is, after all.

It depends solely on the field one is considered a genius in.

Automatically subscribed to every 'sub' upon creating an account? Why? by Cydramech in SaidIt

There are hundreds of thousands of subreddits, so if Reddit had an opt-out system, any user would be burned out if they had to unsub from each one individually. Thankfully, the other posters here were more helpful.

And yes, there is a good reason to not be subscribed to any particular sub, regardless of activity: it holds no interest to begin with, and more importantly, uninterested subs only inflate any actual interest there may be in a sub.
