Two days ago I created a reddit account. I got permabanned for making a joke.

The joke was "Curb your autism, go touch grass".

Apparently I was harassing and threatening people.

Reddit has no problem when saying worse things to "transphobes" and "republicans". It also had no problem with pedophiles, groomers and sexual deviants.

Words like Groomer are banned from reddit. Calling someone a degenerate is also banned.

Its like they want to promote degeneracy behavioir and stop all disenting opinions about it.

That makes a safe heaven to all troons, pedos, deviants, degenerates, rapist, drug addicts and all of those pieces of shit.

Reddit is trash and deserves to be shut down. I got banned in less than 48 hours just for a joke, it makes people self centered, and make everyone thinks that being a degenerate coomer the norm.

Fucking troons. Male in dresses are controling the internet.

The thing that really did it for me was reading about how reddit deletes 5% of its posts. That's like, fucking millions of posts per month. They probably have a lot of wordfilters and automation but a lot of that is done by hand. Reddit is a magnet for autists to create shitty little circlejerks and make everyone jump through their virtual hoops. They are always copies of the same fat smelly loser who has nothing else in their lives, they finally found something that lets them pretend they are in control of something. Literally every reddit thread older than a few months always has all of its users, posts, replies etc everything deleted, and it's getting exponentially more useless over time.

The site is fucking obsessed with banning and deleting itself.

Also, their le upboat system makes conversation impossible since any anonymous coward can downvote your post just once, and it will effectively be unread and censored. Youtube is cucky but they at least know to mix in a little bit of the highest voted comments and new ones. Reddit is full on highest to lowest upvotes so obviously as soon as someone makes a shitty pun, everything else is squelched. Everyone I meet off the site, in person or online, that divulges that they use reddit, is always a smarmy cunt karen antifa fag in the making.

Idk, why did you make an account there? Probably for the same reason other people do, because it's popular and you assume you can actually discuss things. That's why it sucks, because it's one of the big sites with a ton of SEO and therefore, because it's popular, control freaks are going to try to perch themselves there like gargoyles just waiting for the opportunity to crack down.

They don't get paid and reddit has no unified culture or spirit to believe in anymore, so the only possible reason they could be doing it is because they're power junkies.
It doesn't require ill intent, basically unless you're habituated to extreme self-censorship I don't think it's possible to make it on a site like that. That's why I've never even bothered.

Yeah, but a lot of times people online exaggerate things because they're whiny. I'm sure it's a completely different experience actually going someplace and saying something seemingly benign and having an actual contemptible fucking faggot somewhere look at it and say "We do not want you here". Probably hurt the poor little guy's feelings.

Reddit, besides the couple of errant subs, which are usually quarantined, is almost entirely centralised and ruled by powermods.

Remember that in all likelyhood, ghizlaine maxwell or her team, was one of the most active powermods (that went dark since her incarceration), and you understand why it's groomer central. Aaron Schwartz didn't kill himself either.

Any sub with significant activity gets pushed to moderate through backchannels according to centralised demands. A lot of it is also automoderated due to certain trigger words that differ from sub to sub.

The most valuable thing for reddit (not the users) is the manufactored consent and groupthink, where people are rewarded for thinking one way, punished for unpopular opinions and there is the illusion that this isn't the case (popular subs like /r/unpopularopinions quickly become a place to share popular opinions).

And the most effective thing is that because of the structure of mods, whenever there is a pressing political issue, every single sub can push it to the top. Even so called neutral and unpolitical subs like /r/science that supposedly ban every post that doesn't refer to a study, will push posts on climate change, covid, internet neutrality and so on, even though they're not part of studies, because of the pressing "human need" or whatever excuse they use.

It's also heavily botted like most social media sites.

The best way to read the reddit agenda is to go to some random subs, sort by top posts and look at the top 20 posts and see the 1 or 2 political ones. And see that those are almost universal among subs.

The current CEO, spez, looked for weirdo shut-ins to Janny. These weirdo shut-ins were porn addicted social misfits who craved power and view criticism the same as attacks on themselves.
Tranny Jannies power trip because they can, if they can attack you for being inferior for being a bigot or stupid they will. Autism is another identity for them, they see it as attacking a monolith.

Not having porn on a website generally avoids Janny trannies because they’re coom brained weirdos, but it does attract actual women which can also kill your community. It’s odd how much trannies have made me realize how subtle women act compared to the parody that is troons.

A common answer it the idea that its the fault of the so called "Average redditors", this idea is false, the only power normal redditors have is social pressure, if you don't give a shit, they don't have any power. The main issue with reddit is powermods, the admins and the fact that reddit is astroturfed by the CIA. Its a fact that the majority of posts on the front page end up deleted. Why do you think the majority of posts are from these shitty subreddits? Gif of weird thing? Shitty article? Hyper-liberality. When you're on reddit that isn't astroturfed you'll realize that most people there aren't hyper progressives and are just hobbyists. Anyways reddit is a shitty website and its kind of sad to see what it has become.

Yeah, Reddit is trash, never got into it and it's best I remain that way. The fact it hides comments that are downvoted... Reddit is a seriously sad joke.

Honestly thinking about it just leaves me speechless. How can a discussion platform encourage hivemind thinking like that and be popular, humans are truly disappointing. I should be an alien.

There is some nice bitching about Reddit in the Reddit General thread in Community Watch:

Reddit is beyond saving, even if you removed all mods and replaced them with sweatshop Indians who give no shit about IDpol. It will forever remain an echo chamber, where any doubt or disagreement gets downvoted into oblivion. You can't even discuss niche interests there without being affected by the echo chamber mob. There are plenty of alternatives to plebbit, I don't see a point of visiting that site in 2022 for reasons other than to obtain material for Kiwi Farmers to laugh at.

As others have stated, the site fell apart a couple years ago. But I do think the site has gone into overdrive with the.censorship and banning.

Someone indicated Bardfinn has a spread sheet of some 40k users who express wrong think... There is no Blocklist like Twitter to simply block all ahs users and those people have sock accounts anyway.

I think it may be worthwhile.to have an account to ask questions,.say for example if there is a feature on windows 10!you want to ask a question about... But as far as using it a avenue to expresd yourself... anyone with a remote semvaln e of sanity will get banneqd, or deal with lots of bullshit in any case...

I love the looks on the faces of the guy in the light blue plaid and the maroon polo upper right corner. Redhead in the back practically hiding looks cute. The housewife on lavender behind the dog looks perplexed and disgusted. Not sure what to make of the brunette standing next to her. The rest are spiteful mutants, with may be one or two exceptions....

Apparently my reddit user is over 9 years and it was a different site/community back then. The two biggest shifts in reddit from what I've seen was the 2016 US election snd tumblr banning porn. Both seem to have caused a influx degenerates and an increase in censorship, janny-fuckery and manipulation.

Something about the Reddit experience just feels so off but I can never put my finger on it. This goes way deeper than overt political signal boosting or censorship; there’s something just creepy about the overall tone you get from the site. A previous poster said that there’s no unifying Reddit culture but I’m not sure I agree.

There seems to be a weird drive towards overt politeness which makes everything seem extra artificial. Because of this, no one seems bothered to be even slightly skeptical of obviously fake stories as that may come off as unacceptably rude. Obviously, that’s extremely ironic for a site that fucking loves science so much.

The front page is also littered with posts that I genuinely cannot understand why a human would upvote. I don’t mean idpol I disagree with or topics I just don’t like; I mean absolute sub-boomer tier humor or things that stretch the definition of “mildly interesting”. Posts that I can’t imagine a human having any reaction at all to.

This all comes together to give the unshakable feeling that Reddit is extremely manipulated but you can’t ever get a specific sense of exactly how or to what ends it’s manipulated
