reddit General

[Tom Nook's Gloryhole]

I can imagine the soyjack'd admins going "Surely we've appeased the hivemind enough to stop complaining for a long time now?"

And the hivemind responds: "Ban /r/conservative or we riot!"

They're acting like Texas became some sort of dystopia because they banned abortion.

nice snoovatar. glad to see some diversty on the farms

Roe was never good law. It created a "right" out of thin air that was certainly not what the founders intended to provide when they wrote the Bill of Rights.

Hell, Roe isn't even really the law of the land for abortion rights anymore - it may form the foundation, but it was firmly supplanted by Planned Parenthood v Casey.

These assholes don't even know the basic legal history of the "right" they claim to hold so dearly.

 

[Cherenkovblue]

What really sucks is many of the forums and many of the people I was friends with in the old days have become exactly the Reddit professional offense-takers that we'd have made a laughingstock of online 15 or 20 years ago.

I don't know what the fuck happened to them or why it didn't happen to me. It's mystifying.

Life for them didn't turn out the way they thought it would and its easier to blame everyone but themselves... especially if everyone else is doing it.

Obviously we need to bring back bullying.

Ideally now that NNN is banned the admins will turn their attention to all the troublemaking moderators.

Imagine the rending of garments and gnashing of teeth that would occur if, after such a glorious victory, they all got permabanned for their trouble.

They would genuinely think of themselves as martyrs, mentally comparing themselves to people who got killed by nazis for hiding jews or something.

FUCKING SOCKS

NNN got S O Y E D
We Heckin did it Redditerinos! I'll crack open an IPA and suck my girlfriend's dick to celebrate such a glorious event!

No one has a right to murder. Close your legs, whores. Also: Seethe. Cope. Abstain.

This is the worst outcome to this shitshow. Or the best, depending on how you look at it. The powermods now think protesting works and they have leverage over Spez and the mods (they don't). The anti-vaxers have been proven right that TPTB are trying to censor anti-covid talk (they're right). The good news is we'll get more milk from the powermods as they start going after other subreddits. Probably the conspiracy subreddits and all the anti-left and pro-right subs. Some of the anti-vaxers might give us more milk, but i'm doubtful.

edit: the powermods are probably go overboard with the banhammer now. Just saying "I don't think any additional shots above 2 is necessary" will be banned. And normies who wouldn't normally give a shit and would have stick to the program now question things. Not a lot, but its a small snowball that'll eventually grow gigantic.

I'm always curious how leftists know that "the right to bear arms shall not be infringed" was never intended to be applied to modern weapons but the founders cemented modern abortion rights in the 1800s using language that doesn't mention anything close to that idea.

So, is it too early to take bets on the replacement reddit name?

Because my money's on r/No2Normal

NoTwoNormal was made and banned already

Imagine applying that logic to other things. Water isn't fit for human consumption because it's used to wash dishes and hydrate cattle.

"You mean the stuff in toilets?"

 

[DerKryptid]

Suddenly, literally all no new normal users realized that they were wrong and completely reversed their opinions on the occasion or their sub being banned.

Looking forward to the massive rapefugee exodus to /pol/ expecting wholesome chungus shit

Personally, I think it doesn't matter. Reddit is an echo chamber with some controlled opposition so people don't get bored. You take that opposition away and power-tripping jannies will create shitstorms all by themselves.

And if Reddit admins give into their demands, it will just give them more reason to abuse their power. It's like an autistic Cold War. The question is who gets doxed/threatened/left-wing-mobbed first and all potential victims give me no reason to feel bad for them.

To end on a more positive and not relatively bored note:
NNN might be banned, but jannies will forever work for free.

 

[fiddlecauliflower]

Being able to link across sub-reddits is the one thing that prevents them from being perfect echo chambers caused by the site's core design.

Clearly it has to be destroyed or precarious ideologies might start being challenged by the undesirables.

It's one of the most retarded rules I've ever seen on a website. I know they used to threaten to shadow ban you if you voted on posts if you were linked to it via another subreddit. I don't know any other website that bans you just for using it as intended.

 

[Tom Nook's Gloryhole]

I've turned around on this, I thought this was bad for drama however it's made me realise something.

The reason why the jannies didn't go all in from the beginning was the threat of being demodded, if literally NOTHING comes from this and none of the powerjannies get the can then imagine what happens when they decide to go all in again. They'll be able to shut down reddit far worse than this because what's spez going to do? Cry again?

So give it a few months and we will see the final reddit civil war.

 

[AnOminous]

The only use for meetup organization threads is to send a bunch of idiots into the wilderness to a location that doesn't exist.

That sounds as fun as setting up a Pokestop in an isolated location and just mugging whoever shows up. Beat the shit out of them and steal their iPhone and lunch money.

I pulled that off of Ovarit actually but thank you. It occasionally provides good milk.

Good, we don't want your kind in our state anyway. Also, "no abortions after six weeks" seems like more like enough time to fix any "oopsies" but I guess this is sort of like a rare "take away an inch, they act like you took away a mile" case.
