If you support free speech, you must support people pinging other users. It's completely legal speech. If you won't defend pinging as free speech because you or someone else finds it disgusting, then no speech that you or anyone else views as disgusting is safe.
if it is in fact on shaky legal ground it's reasonable to not want to be the case that establishes it as illegal.
It's not, The reddit admins are straight up lying to the ignorant (like yourself) to justify their prejudice. Pinging being protected speech has long since been estabilished, as it has undeniable artistic merit. The only time it's been included under any obscenity laws is when someone is being charged with possession of harassment, so the state can slap them with more charges. The courts have been very careful to not charge anyone for pinging, because they'd get their asses fucking annihilated by a higher court due to the firm precedence of pinging being completely legal speech. /r/Drama had nothing to worry about, this guy was just making shit up to fool people into thinking his censoring wasn't entirely personally motivated.
I don't understand pro-Trump trolls in /r/politics. They don't try to be subtle or clever, they just dump some retarded pro-R/anti-D spiel there and watch the opposite retards gorge on the bait. There's no art to it.
At least it's reliable. You can always land loads of bottom-tier liberals who lucked into having the right opinions, but are actually just as stupid as the average TDer. But it's like fishing with explosives, considering that's most of /r/politics.
Wow. The number of Reddit users jumping in here with the "I thought liberals said believe all women" in this story is extremely telling. This is a coordinated, planned attack
Russia somehow found a way to make that place worse.

You're going to get downvoted as soon as they "discover" your true intentions...aka their reading comprehension kicks in.
So subtlety or cleverness gets you nowhere. You get in, make your point, and get out.
The massive downvotes pushes the comment into controversial status, which is the best you're gunna get in that sub.
