    Advocate for antivax bullshit that kills people? Sure! Encourage politicians to stop live-saving cancer research, gut the VA, and reduce safety standards that will have more people suffering? Cool beans!

    Oh, you don’t like that and want to voice your opinion? GFY

      My country is about to strap a guy to a chair and have 3 government employees fire a gun at him. And that’s fine.

        Assuming this is America, that guy requested for that to happen because it’s a less excruciating death than the other chair.

        But here’s why it’s still an issue: being shot should not be the most humane option we give someone lmfao

      Apparently, writing an inspiring post about taking action and ways to protest was just too much for the delicate sensibilities of the internet overlords. I was banned for “inciting violence.”

      Who knew that encouraging people to stand up for what they believe in was such a radical concept?

      I actually had a nice interaction with a mod on that subreddit just yesterday. A comment of mine was being auto-hidden. He explained why, then offered to help. Not the usual petty tyrant mod I expected.

    If you thought Reddit was anything but on the side of Elon, Thiel, and the Nazi plutocrats, you haven’t been paying attention. And it will get worse and worse as time goes on.

    They’re trying to control the conversation to the point that the Overton Window embraces open fascism, and it’s working.

      Take this as a very good sign. They are afraid of implications of spreading this discourse. Go forth widely and proclaim it: “eat the rich”.

      But in all seriousness let’s not loose the momentum. Online or offline we need to continue to push this narrative against capital, corruption, and genocide.

      God, I wish. But I heard reddit even grew when 3rd party API was banned. Why would it be different this time?

    My account got banned about 2 weeks ago for three days saying if you were were a republican you voted for a Nazi and fuck Nazi’s.

    People don’t realize it but Reddit is working on suppressing everything as well. This plus the soon to be paywalled information. This shit is on purpose.

      Are you telling me the president’s closest advisor doing double nazi salutes to a cheering crowd and his other closest advisor doing a nazi salute to another cheering crowd isn’t just a coincidence? Next thing you’ll tell me is Musk likes the name X because he enjoys drawing the rest of the swastika.

        Sucks too. I found some really obscure advice on one thread that really saved me. I had an HTC vive and the sensor boxes weren’t working. Someone commented that the Razer Chroma program fucks it up for some reason so I got rid of it and it worked. Lots of useful info, about to be inaccessible to the masses.

        I’m pretty sure he likes the X because that’s how a ton of illiterate tribal African leaders signed away their land to Europeans, specifically his ancestors.

    I got a 7 day ban for mentioning that someone managed to make Musk’s AI say Musk and Trump deserve the death penalty in a thread shitting on Musk’s AI. I tried to appeal the ban asking how mentioning this was “promoting violence” and I got permabanned with no explanations. Reddit has become a fucking cesspool.

      I posted this comment once before but it fits here so I’ll post it again:

      I got [perma] banned for telling a mod “spank spank spank. Thats the sound I make as I spank you. Yes yes yes. Thats the sound you make as I spank you.” And I don’t regret it

      Spank spank spank the rich

      i noticed when i repealed some of my unfairly banned acc, it was just an AI response, most of the time your repeal is automatically denied and never looked at by a actual person.

      If Spez wasn’t taking the Trump Coin to do ideological warfare on his behalf, he’d either be out on his ass or six feet under like Aaron Swartz. Then you’d have another Millennial corporate shit to hate in his stead.

      At some point, you can’t hate the player, just the game.
