There's a difference between being someone I don't like and perpetuating beliefs that are truly disgusting.
"I'm not banning people I don't like. I'm banning people I really don't like." Seriously: There are no bright-line rules or even any examples provided; how on earth is someone supposed to avoid
participat[ing] in what we consider racism, sexism, xenophobia, or homophobia?
If CURRENT_YEAR has taught me anything, it's that the definition of all of those things is very much up for grabs. I'm pretty sure that conspicuous failure to <<<literally shake>>> at the mention of Donald Trump Voldemort's name now qualifies as at least 5 or 6 different -isms.
Only nuance about approved topics. Conveniently, the mod has decided not to post either a whitelist or blacklist (is they're OK with pedophilia apologia but not OK with Trump apologia).
pretty much sounds like a normal "we don't want nazis" post imo. i get that might be unfamiliar to r/drama faggots since they all suck off nazis and love their thick cocks, but most subreddits don't want to be a dumping ground for unironic cucks
I don't get why people here are sperging out about this. it's hilarious he's getting so many people to freak out and overreact to this just because of muh free speech. /u/dumbassthenes good job with this based response.
It's relevant to my identity as a bisexual, Jewish surfer on the North Queensland coast. Why are you trying to police my identity? Do you have a problem with my confidence as a bisexual Jew, for all the judgement that garners from my faith? I don't tell you to refrain from talking about how straight and white people are.
Should r/surfing not be the one place I am free and comfortable to be me?
If anyone should have been referred to as the alt-right it should have been the violent globalist Hilary supporters who nazily attacked Bernie supporters.
NEXT THING YOU KNOW, YOU'LL TELL ME I CAN'T SAY NIGGER IN OTHER SUBS EVEN THOUGHT I'M A BLACK JEW AND A MEMBER OF THE FNQ ALLIANCE OF BLACK JEWS. YOU'RE REALLY GOING TO POLICE MY LANGUAGE, RACE AND BELIEFS LIKE THAT? I SEE HOW IT IT, MR. WHITE SURFER MAN, ONLY THE PEOPLE WHO SPEAK HOW YOU WANT THEM TO SPEAK CAN BE IN YOUR LITTLE CLUB.
I REMEMBER ANOTHER LITTLE CLUB THAT FELT THE SAME WAY ABOUT GAYS, BLACKS AND JEWS, IT WAS CALLED NAZI GERMANY. SO MUCH FOR FREEDOM.
Several therapy programs in the United States now use hug machines, effectively achieving general calming effects among both children and adults with autism.
WRONG. U are banning people for their acts outside the sub. That's why everyone is attacking you. You are making a mistake. Just take back your bad idea and everything will go back to normal.
And so begins the downfall of another subreddit, once power-hungry SJW mods start using automoderator to secretly auto-censor and shadowban people from saying things they don't agree with or like, and use the little authority they have in their pathetic lives to try to control everyone in their pathetic subreddit and impose their delusional ideals.
Do you realize that before stormfront and pol made free speech on the internet a meme, almost all forums were strictly moderated, like even more strictly than the "SJWs" of today? You little chucklefucks who have reddit as babby's first forum don't realize how weird it is to see website admins let conservatards congregate on their site
Nope, you just have reddit as your babby's first forum. This "free speech platform" bullshit wasn't the norm, people just deleted even mild conservative viewpoints.
before the internet became all about social approval, marketing scams and video blogs, websites were dominated by left wing libertarians who loved open source and focussing on the content over the person. anonymity was the default, nobody wanted to know what fantastic gender you decided to be.
reddit's original claim to fame was it's voting and comment-tree system, far superior to linear BBS style forums.
the lack of censorship was a core principle from the beginning, but that was not what made reddit special. that was quite common at the time.
the whole echo chamber thing only became a big problem, when all the dumb people joined the internet, idiots who treat the online world as an extension of high school popularity contests.
what would there have been to delete anyway? there were almost no conservative views on reddit. under Bush (and early Obama) conservatives were mostly wrong. they were the stuck up religious fanatics, their weird obsession with sexuality, and censoring stuff because "moral decay" and "think of the children."
this is not true anymore.
now the political left are the weird ones, now they have the religion, now they have the weird obsession with sexuality, now they want to censor stuff because of the exact same bullshit reasons, only they use different buzzwords to say "moral decay" and "think of the children."
I know I shouldn't be, but i'm surprised there's a surfing sub....you would think surfers would be too busy catching waves to waste their short, shark and skin cancer infested lives on Reddit.
"I got the shark cancer bruh. Doc says I only got 420 minutes left to live. I'm going to spend it having autistic behavioral tics and spasms on the internet."
I hate to agree with limiting speech, but here we are, I'm doing it. This is why we can't have nice things.
I think my friend put it best when he said, "GG Allin couldn't exist today, too many people would take it seriously. Real people would be arguing that murder should be legal and you needed to kill everything you fuck cause GG said so, those people would be fighting anyone who thought diffrent."
Whenever people try to push back against authoritarianism, just remember: WWPDIGGAWSAATTHLSASAMTLMETHMISWAANIDT (What Would People Do If GG Allin Was Still Alive And They Took His Lyrics Seriously And Started A Movement To Legalize Murder Even Though His Music Is Still Widely Available And Nobody Is Doing This).
