Reddit has become such an absolute shit hole of censorship.

in regards to your question, there is a fallacy out there that the nazis where somehow on the "left" because they came from the national "socialism" workers party. If they existed today they would very much be on what we consider the "right"

i guess the leftist equivelent at the time was the socialists workers party (marxists)

i sympathize with anyone who loses their job, SJW or not.

His prerogative to fire his employees, although i think its not ideal to fire someone for propelling "cancel culture" as it will only make them more fanatical.

Hollywood BEGS Johnny Depp To Drop Suit On Amber Heard. The man was fired from Pirates of the Caribbean by mere accusation with zero evidence. The media doesn't even apologize to Johnny Depp for painting him as a wife beater even when he's innocent. by Chipit in Movies

i have heard the tape and i agree it looks bad for Heard.

I was very against Depp being fired from Pirats of the Caribbean, like i said cancel culture is horrible. I'm not defending Heard or Depp i am just advocating for sanity where we do not take stances based on information being fed out by the other party.

I'm suprised it took them this long to add this customization to their game, horrendous that they are banning people for speaking against it, although i have a hard time coming up with reasons to be against this ?

There is a court case currently ongoing. Perhaps we should show a little sanity and wait before forming opinions based on information that could potentially be false ? and let the legal system take its course.

Cancel culture is horrible and if both sides are just going to cancel each other without any judge or jury we are heading for a dark time in history.

With the way both sides fanaticly support either Amber or Depp it is hard for me to come to a conclusion.

Just going to do what everyone else should have in the first place and wait for an actual court to rule on the situation.

So Reddit bans people who do not share their views, you find something you disagree with and your immediate reaction is "fuck this place, i'm leaving"

Other people having differing opinions then your own is not the end of the world and you can still use a platform despite their opinions ?

Saying things ( or not ) to fit in is something i relate to strongly at my office.

I keep wondering if some of my coworkers are also experiencing the same thing i am. I made the mistake once of correcting someone on something the US president had said or in this case had not said.

After that some coworkers have warned me that i am being targeted as a Trump supporter and a possible racist/misogynist.

One of the dangers of "cancel culture" is you need to be cancelled or have someone or something you agree with get cancelled in order to see how truly poisonous it is to the advancement of society. Had GC not been "cancelled" can most of you say with certainty that you would be sceptical of cancel culture ?

For me this is the only feminist circle/group that is not praising cancel culture.

Hypothetically speaking if i was nagged/convinced into having sex with someone ?

if i regretted it afterwards i would probably feel like i was used and as you say uncomfortable. The sex would still have been consensual though, i don't see how it would not be ?

I am currently living in a very woke nordic country and it has gotten to a point i can't question or discuss anything that is not in the narrative. I can't talk to my wife, coworkers or even friends about anything that does not fit this femcentric socialist narrative. And now Reddit is in the final steps of becoming this echo chamber where all dissent is silenced and only selected views and opinions get to be voiced.

All i want is to be able to question things and formulate opinions through discussion.

If you agree to sex because you were asked many times or felt bad for the person, then that is consensual sex.

im open to discussion why you think its not ?

look i do not want to defend violence against anyone. I want to stress that discussion platforms should not be moderated to fit the narrative of a certain section of society, all sides should get place to voice their opinions and hopefully said sides will be willing to hear one another out.

if you automaticly decide you cant have an argument or discussion with me based solely on the fact you disagree with what im saying, you will just get stuck in an echo chamber hearing only things you want to hear, much like reddit is becoming.

Thank you for the reply, seems you are up for having a discussion despite disagreeing with me.

I don't think a subreddit posting photos of women should be banned, i do agree that it is morally reprehensible to post pictures of women without their consent, a discussion platform should not be an opinion police and decide what is moral or not.

You feel like violent pornography and incest should be banned. Reddit admins feel like TERF subreddits should be banned.

Why is one better then the other ?

Reddit is free to do what they want to with their platform, at least i am of the opinion they should be.

Personally i feel like any platform worth its salt should allow any and all discussion, banning discussion is wrong no matter the subject. Continue discussing how unfair your ban is and that x or y subreddit should have been banned instead of GC. I just hope you eventually see the hypocrisy.

i had forgotten about fatpeoplehate, i really enjoyed the sanity of that place.

for a sub with the word Hate in it, it had a lot of sane rational discussion.
