[you said] they banned you and that's censorship and all censorship is bad.

I never said that, as I explained to you multiple times now.

Ps. You're really focused on my lesbianism when literally I brought it up once in jest to your jab about sucking dick...

My entire argument centers around people playing identity politics to help destroy websites, and my entire post has to do with echos of behavior of these people on Reddit. You played an identity politics card when I told you to suck dick (which you should).

You've also ignored my arguments (just like this time, see above) but always respond to these kinds of jabs, so I repeat them, as it's satisfying to know you don't have the ideological backing on this site to do anything about words that you would otherwise be able to silence. Hence, suck dick, get fucked, etc. No one cares about the proclaimed identity or genital-sexual-attraction of the person behind your username.

Brigading you mean that thing where a user not interested in a sub purposely invade it to troll, downvote and make pointless inflammatory posts...

You're surely used to torturing definitions like this, aren't you? Explain to me how a single user visiting a post on the top of /s/all is in any way brigading.

You're being purposefully disingenuous and demonstrating once again a lack of critical thinking when it suits your arguments. Who do you imagine you're convincing by doing that?

The rest of your comment seems to confirm that I must've hit a nerve by dismissing information you voluntarily brought up about your identity, which I called pathetic, as it is; you attempted a technically pathetic appeal to try and attain empathy and score rhetorical points, but I just don't give a fuck about something you must hold close to your heart.

I don't give a fuck what your gender is or what you claim it to be, or who you desire to rub genitals with. I care about the fact that there's a subreddit (subverse?) on this site that is demonstrating the same pathological signs as early Reddit. You haven't accepted this premise even for the sake of argument, yet want to launch into hypothetical discussions about what you imagine I'd support for its users at large--again torturing what I said to pretend I applied it to anyone but the specific person I discussed, and due to mod abuse.

The problem with Reddit is that cancerous groups of identity-politics playing scumbags became more and more powerful, and had their increasingly disruptive, brigading behavior accepted by the admins if not endorsed. It started with shit like SRS and spread from there.

The post I criticized is indistinguishable from the "intersectional" crap that started appearing on Reddit a few years ago, and the behavior of people like yourself is extremely similar--except if this were Reddit this conversation wouldn't be possible. Fortunately, here you have to just accept being told to suck a dick, repeatedly, and you don't get to play victim for privilege points by bringing up irrelevant details like what genitals you prefer. Which was pathetic, by the way. Why would I give a single fuck about that?

Spam is marketing junk, so clearly it's not spam. They're not as high quality as other comments that were removed, like ones expressing support but raising questions about how appropriate it is to make posts like the type they were posting. And why aren't you levying the same accusation of low-quality against a post that's literally "FUCK MEN FUCK MEN FUCK MEN YALL EAT A DICK"? I question your ability to rationally think about this topic, as you should've immediately volunteered that flaw in your argument.

It's fully justified to say "suck more dick" as a response to garbage of that quality. My comments, by the way, were well received and upvoted, and it wasn't until my post here that the mods of that sub banned me.

Actually I didn't mean it in a sexual way. I meant it as an insult. I figured feminists would be upset by someone telling them to suck dick, which is a good test to see how tolerant or intolerant they are of insults.

American Students believe america invented slavery by sproketboy in Education

That's because American students are taught that America invented slavery

A big part of American history education is to teach the emotional response a student should have. They're taught an emotional response to slavery, but not an emotional response to the sacrifices that Americans made to end it, nor to the completely ruined lives during Reconstruction. No emotional response either to whites being enslaved or being indentured servants, nor are they taught anything about who was funding slavery and transporting the slaves. They're also taught the proper emotion to experience when hearing that blacks were capturing other tribes of blacks is that it's a shame...a shame that white people made them do it.

Taser is non-lethal

They're not non-lethal, they're less-than-lethal. They're weapons that can cause grevious bodily harm, especially when used improperly. You'd also have to prove the officer knew that the suspect grabbed a taser and not something else off his belt, and that he wasn't 100% sure he wasn't using another weapon when he aimed and fired at him.

doesn't justify death

Look up Graham v. Connor. You can use deadly force to prevent someone from attempting to disarm you. You can use deadly force if it's objectively reasonable under a totality of circumstances known at that time. Like, for example, a violent suspect who has already committed multiple felonies turning around and firing a weapon at you.

"I started with day over day growth,” he told me, using publicly available data released by China. “[I then] took that data and dumped it into an AI neural net using a RNN [recurrent neural network] model and ran the simulation ten million times. That output dictated the forecast for the following day. Once the following day’s output was published, I grabbed that data, added it to the training data, and re-ran ten million times.”

This idiot just trained an RNN to very, very inefficiently determine the coefficients in the polynomial function the Chinese government is using to produce the reported numbers. A Twitter user discovered the model weeks ago, and his predictions conform to within 0.1%, with his model having an R2 of 0.9999, proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that the published numbers are an estimate at best, intentionally fake at worst. https://twitter.com/evdefender/status/1225450497827647488

I hate this trend of people talking to their cameras for 10-20 minutes when really they could cut the padding, compress their content, and present it in 3 minutes, tops.

The increases in autism isn't occurring in communities who don't vaccinate.

You do know you can't block users yet, right?

The only other time I've seen a user act like this much of a sensitive baby, who has to telegraph to everyone that his feelings are soooo hurt that he needs to block users, is on Voat. Did you come here from there?

"Free speech" commenting extension Dissenter becomes spyware, banned from Firefox. by wizzwizz4 in Internet

Certainly agreed. It makes me think this is just a big misstep, and hopefully they'll fix it and the extension will continue to gain in popularity. It's a pretty fantastic thing to have on the web.

Flashback: John Kerry Said Arctic Would Be ‘Ice-Free’ By 2013 by useless_aether in ClimateSkeptics

"A fair statement would be that some scientists have predicted summer ice free Arctic Ocean as soon as 2013, but others expect it to happen a little slower — say 2040-2060," Schmidt wrote.

Differences occur when research focuses on the area of the Arctic — based on aerial satellite photographs — or on thickness and volume of the ice as well as area, according to Maslowski. In both cases, scientists have seen melting, Maslowski said. However, when estimates are based on the latter method, as Maslowski and his team of researchers have done, melting seems to be happening much faster.

"There is no crystal ball, there is no final prediction, just estimates," Maslowski said. "All we are trying to show is that we better start thinking [ice-free summers] could start earlier than 2100 or 2030. We should be prepared for the worst-case scenario."

There were a great number of scientists at the time who made less extreme predictions, and who pointed out that there's no community consensus on when the summer arctic ice cover would disappear.

They didn't become greedy in the sense that they were motivated to install spyware. See my comment here: https://saidit.net/s/Internet/comments/jib/free_speech_commenting_extension_dissenter/xrb

They implemented a privacy-invading feature that was hugely requested (and useful), leading to the extension being flagged as being privacy-invading.

The question should be whether or not it's opt-in or opt-out (I think it's the latter), and if it was the former whether Firefox would be wrong to ban it--especially considering they're going to extreme lengths to prevent you from running third party extensions through anything but their walled-garden extension page.

I had wanted the badge notification feature (which shows the number of comments on a URL) and searched around to see if anyone had brought it up before, and they had. It turns out that before Dissenter got popular the owner had said they'll never make that feature, as it requires a pingback on every URL to determine if people left any comments. (How else could it work?) He pointed out the obvious privacy implications of telling the Dissenter servers every URL that you're visiting.

Dissenter then became popular and tons of people requested that feature, and it looks like they implemented it, against their previous judgment. Now it seems Firefox has flagged it for being an invasion of privacy, even if you can disable the feature.

😑 That's all I have to say; teachers were struck with air pellets during a school shooting drill at an Indiana elementary school, they were left bleeding and with bruises when it was over, says the executive director of a teacher's association. by Jesus in conspiracy

If you see the media coverage of school shootings (multiple sources, multiple networks, multiple purported eyewitnesses) and say that it's insufficient to serve as evidence that it happened, and in fact your political theories are sufficient evidence that it didn't happen, then you must look at the media coverage of this shooting drill (few sources, few purported eyewitnesses) and conclude that it also obviously didn't happen.

But instead, you conclude that the airsoft incident happened and the real ones didn't. Why? Because you're pursuing a preconceived conclusion and not thinking critically.

A frame of mind where a piece of evidence comes along that exposes a flaw in your previous logic, but instead you perceive it as actually supporting that logic, is called a self-reinforcing delusion.

Hi, I'm sick of reddit by Darkri in Introductions

[–]SuperConductiveRabbi 7 insightful - 3 fun7 insightful - 2 fun8 insightful - 3 fun -  (0 children)

I was there 4 years ago (right after Whoaverse) and it was pretty different. There was still an element of 4chan /pol/ style ignorant shit ("everything is a Jewish conspiracy! You question it? You're a Jew!"), but it was more relegated to non-main subs.

The more Reddit banned disreputable, fringe subreddits, the more hateful and ignorantly political Voat became. It was a positive feedback loop, shutting down more normal users, which drove them away and emboldened the most radical and noisiest, which accelerated things more, etc.

Ironically, Voat proved its own point about unchecked immigration destroying an existing culture. However, if they had followed their own advice (shared about fifty times a day, even on pictures of cats) any cultural immigrant or even sympathizer would be tortured and shot in front of their family. Then they'd blame the Jews.

New Zealand on verge of hysterics, removes Jordan Peterson's bestseller 12 Rules for Life by Vigte in politics

You mean the shooter made his own false flag? He stated in his manifesto that his intention was to create as much divisiveness as possible, including making people in the US freak out about the 2nd amendment to such a great degree that it's spark armed conflict.

I don't think that qualifies it as a false flag, however, since he was the one carrying out the attack and not trying to pretend to be someone else.

Ironically, it says to reject identitarianism, reject extremism, focus on yourself and what you can immediately improve, and bear as much responsibility as you can. Traditionalist, rational, and conservative ideas.
