“fuck u/spez” means absolutely nothing to anyone who isn’t familiar with Reddit, it’s just noise.
“FIRE STEVE HUFFMAN” is a clear, actionable statement that has a clear target and goal and actually has meaning to people who don’t know what Reddit is (like say, a potential shareholder or investor)
Idk where to put this since r/savethirdpartyapps got banned so post this wherever will get noise if you agree
The crime was turning up the censorship. Saying mean things should absolutely be allowed.
“Censorship” lol, cry harder.
Her platform, her rules. Don’t like it? Leave. This ain’t a government, you have no free speech rights here or anywhere else on the internet, don’t like how a site operates/what a site allows? Then leave.
That’s what people are doing now. There weren’t alternatives then. And your attitude is unjustified.
Progressive censors are just as bad as their right-wing counterparts, but live in a delusional world in which whatever they do is right because they’re the ones that do it.
Yup. They can’t imagine a world where the censorship is inevitably flipped back on them because they feel they have the ultimate moral high ground.
Did I say anything about liking their stances? No. They’re a private company though. They can do as they fucking please.
In fact the only way to force them to not censor anyone is to eliminate their (the owners) first amendment rights. That’s why private companies are not beholden to it. Unfortunately this concept is foreign to right wing nuts.
Well, there was and still is 4chan. You can say anything over there, it’s a place full of freedom and rainbows.
I did. I haven’t logged into my reddit account in 8 fucking years.
Hate communities are bad
