So Arstechnica has decided to start some shit with /u/spez and reddit recently.

93  2018-07-10 by ActuallyToiracse

A reddit user was banned and ran to ArsTechnica to complain about muh freeze peaches or hate speech or something... pointing out the utter hypocrisy of reddit admin /u/spez for banning him for "harassment" (lol harassment) after saying reddit isn't the thought police.

...which was then posted to nottheonion.

After some casual digging a user in the comment section found out what probably got our autist protagonist banned and it turns out to be harassment.

Idonno, he's just sperging out protesting everywhere. Guess you can argue it was to incite a mob on /u/spez, but

1) /u/spez seems to do a fine job getting a mob on his own that I doubt this would have any significant impact

2) Is this really breaking any rules? I don't see how this is much different than most meta bullshit.

1  ActuallyToiracse 2018-07-10

Yeah there's enough fuckspez out there that even if the user's a sperg the topic of the day can be fuckspez.

I think you're probably more likely to cop a harassment temp ban for calling to harass an admin after attracting the attention of that admin through PMs and throwing an insult at them.

Is there an operation to become a bot

1  wwyzzerdd 2018-07-10

Currently there are only operations to become a thot. But soon brother, soon.

1  Ryaca504 2018-07-10

I will wait patiently

1  zergling_Lester 2018-07-10

Yeah, it's called "bot surgery".

1  Ryaca504 2018-07-10

do they have to install a usb port into the back of my head

1  zergling_Lester 2018-07-10

No, in the nether regions, and it's either a port or a plug.

1  Ryaca504 2018-07-10

oof

1  bG9sIG5pY2UgdHJ5Cg 2018-07-10

First they pull apart your urethra, then they jab in a USB port and sew it up. Then you have to come back in a week to get it re-done because they accidentally put the port in the wrong way around.

1  Ryaca504 2018-07-10

it will look strange with a wire plugged into my weener

1  waronirony 2018-07-10

You're last hyperlink is fucking obnoxious, each word is a different link and two of them are irrelevant

1  ActuallyToiracse 2018-07-10

I'm sorry, I'll space them apart for your fat fingers.

1  AnnoysTheGoys 2018-07-10

RIP Arstechnica. Prepare to get inundated by every mongoloid on Reddit with an axe to grind.

1  rhyme-ocerus 2018-07-10

It's been garbage since it when Snowdentard years ago, nothing of value will have been lost

1  HodorTheDoorHolder 2018-07-10

I ALREADY POSTED ABOUT THIS!!!!!!!!!

1  ActuallyToiracse 2018-07-10

yeah but you're silly

1  HodorTheDoorHolder 2018-07-10

True.

1  ffbtaw 2018-07-10

Did the right hate Pao more or the left /u/spez?

1  RevCostanzaJaypeg 2018-07-10

/u/spez is hated by both the right and left, making him the perfect centrist admin

1  shitpersonality 2018-07-10

/u/spez should be an honorary mod.

1  Mikeavelli 2018-07-10

Pao did nothing wrong.

1  Neon_needles 2018-07-10

Yeah, reddit does some serious cherry picking. They banned certain subreddits in a claim to crack down on violent/hateful speech, but yet The_Donald still exists and that has plenty of hateful and sometimes violent posts and comments

I love posts like this because if TD goes the look on people's faces when anarchism, Chapo, LSC, socialism go with it will be fucking hilarious.

1  NardDogAndy 2018-07-10

Like when all those female 'comedians' started getting banned on facebook for saying shit like 'men are scum' as a 'protest'.

1  amkaps 2018-07-10

Damn. What happened to the internet? We're regressing.

1  rhyme-ocerus 2018-07-10

They really, really, really don't understand that "haha kill all capialists" isn't going to be received any better than "haha kill all Muslims".

I'd cheer for it, but I think "haha you fucking idiot" will be next against the wall. On the other hand, if Reddit really cracked down, this sub wouldn't be nearly as fun anyway so maybe it wouldn't matter if drama were banned

1  reallymakesuthink_ 2018-07-10

Trumpists ought to be slaughtered.

1  AlertTheSPLC 2018-07-10

The Mayocide will take care of that.

1  bjt23 2018-07-10

Only speech I disagree with is hate speech, and the powers that be will definitely share all my opinions because of how correct I am.

1  broden 2018-07-10

But everyone is born Muslim, it's not the same for capitalism.

1  mrv3 2018-07-10

LSC literally used quotes from Hitler to justify violence. I can't believe people are blind to it. It's honestly crazy just how retarded they are

"Trump is a fascist baddie, Nazi's are bad and to fix this let's listen to Hitler and beat people up while wearing brown black and hating on the Russians demanding war!"

They are two more Trump tweet away from unironically saying Hail Hillary.

1  portodhamma 2018-07-10

I love how you think LSC is pro Hillary

1  mrv3 2018-07-10

No, I think LSC is pro political violence and as it happens so was Hitler so the, using his quotes doesn’t surprise me.

1  holditsteady 2018-07-10

At least r/drama would go too, so some good might come from it

1  Mikeavelli 2018-07-10

My only regret will be having nowhere to read about the drama that comes from it.

1  Yiin 2018-07-10

You could read it on SRD probably

1  totalrandomperson 2018-07-10

I would rather eat a cactus with all of its spines intact.

1  Redactor0 2018-07-10

🤢 🤮

1  ChipChippersonAMA 2018-07-10

Honestly I'd be estatic if they banned all of those subs

1  nithingpole 2018-07-10

A person's opinion on T_D still probably tell you a lot about their authoritarian tendencies.

1  RecallRethuglicans 2018-07-10

Why would those go?

1  Mao_Zedong_Thot 2018-07-10

Autagonist

1  Mao_Zedong_Thot 2018-07-10

reddit is exactly as much of a gay shitshow as you would expect it to be and /u/spez is just a generic Silicon Valley wypipo retard. He is no better or worse than any other half-talented middle-of-the-road Obama Generation nowhere man.

1  prizzle92 2018-07-10

what a fucking nerd. why do they give a fuck about a reddit ban

1  carthoris26 2018-07-10

For a week. He's banned for one week for being an insufferable cunt and it's the end of the world. I'm sure he has plenty of alts, but he can't even pretend to step away from the site for seven days.

TDS is real.

1  ersevni 2018-07-10

It's so fucking stupid lmao. Spez is the fucking ceo of reddit he could ban literally anyone for any reason lol its his site.

1  LemonScore_ 2018-07-10

lol, the twat that wrote the Ars Technica article is calling people happy that the ArenaNet devs were fired a hate campaign and his latest tweet is backing up Rian Cuckson on Gamergate: https://imgur.com/a/gsr6fp9

1  Systemsmodel 2018-07-10

People on this website literally hate free speech and the admins are a bunch of thin skinned immature assholes

1  Gtyyler 2018-07-10

Concerned parties refuse to leave reddit for an alternative, part 237.

1  Cypher211 2018-07-10

Imagine caring about politics on reddit. IDGAF what Spez does or who he bans.

1  bG9sIG5pY2UgdHJ5Cg 2018-07-10

/u/spez ban this guy next plz
