I check the kia subreddit every few months out of curiosity, and the last time I looked they instituted rules to ban anyone with a low post count who start arguments with the regulars. I'm not surprised the owner wanted to shut it down, they've pretty much become the thing that they hate.

Reddit also has this terrible mod system that is completely based on seniority. If you have a real lovely mod that became a mod the day before you there’s no way to get rid of them and conversely they can remove any mod whatsoever who joined after them.

Get swole, cosplay as either Kenshiro, one of the less reactionary JoJo's or any of the Pillar Men and challenge them to a fight.

Getting your rear end beat down to the Pillar Men theme would be the worst day of an anime nazi's life.

Joseph, for not beating the poo poo out of Caesar (Italian fash) and Stroheim (literal SS Nazi). Also, for staying racist against Japanese people, even in the 80s.

Points in his favor: Friends with Smokey and Abdul, never racist or lovely to anyone on his boy's road trip to Egypt.

Last I heard, some sociologists or something are pretty sure that a lot of Japan's NEET epidemic is due to brutal parental abuse that used to be acceptable parenting.

The main reason they're terrified about demographics is because they treat minorities like poo poo and assume that if they become a minority people will treat them the same way

It's kind of like how straight dudes are afraid of gay dudes pursuing them. No straight man wants to be "the woman" of the relationship, and they seem to think that's what that would involve.

You are going to get banned from Greece.

If the KotakuInAction dude had been smart, he'd have just banned all the assholes, shitcanned all the mods, and invited some social-justice-minded Extremely Online folks to become moderators. AFAIK, while Reddit doesn't let people shut down their own subreddits, they don't do a drat thing about people completely changing the tone, content, and rules within them.
