Sorry to undo the effort of paying a domestic abuser $10 to own this poster, but I am going to lose my dang mind if I keep seeing multiple posters who appear to be Baloogan.

if you're at all familiar with reddit, you know they hold free speech in the highest regard. it's sacrosanct, and that little red-eyed alien has sworn to protect it with his life. even when minorities are being mocked, or pictures of dead minorities are being handed out, reddit will defend your right to say and do such things.

but today an exception has been made. one subreddit has been so vile, so cruel, and so thoughtless recently that reddit has threatened to ban them all on its own, without demands from outside groups...

quote:

Dear Reddit Administration:

No, r/anarchism will not remove comments with terms like “BASH THE FASH”. No, we will not meekly follow commands from the site administration with the threat of quarantine or deletion.

i can't believe reddit finally found a persecuted minority they want to defend :allears:

don't worry something awful is a safe haven for pedophiles and serial sex offenders. they unironically had an extremist left subforum called laissez faire which, man, reading those archives really shifted the way I felt about being on the left. you can only reread "if you stare at a woman in any way shape or form, you are essentially raping her" so many times before you realize that its just a mass delusional hell pit where people go to wring their hands. sort some of absurd communal penance. these people feel guilt for their own existence lol.

The reddit pedocaust was a remarkable series of events, and one that made me proud pleased cautiously approving less suicidally embarrassed than usual to post here.

All jokes aside it was a grand moment and I'm glad we had as much to do with as we did.

Reddit is basically usnet with a hamhanded attempt at fixing the moderator problem and something like one million times the userbase that usnet had at it's peak.

It's userbase skews shithead because the real world skews shithead.

remember when that guy performed db analysis on the reddit userbase and found that the best crossover indicator for posting in the white supremacy and other racist subforums there was how much they posted in the gaming ones

tl:dr: mod of white supremacist subreddit asks if "just shoot them" wrt to immigrants is incitement to violence, and the reddit admins assured him it wasn't, unlike saying "bash the fash"

they're just following fox protocol, i.e. everyone knows "fascist" means "president trump", so even the most flip anti-fascist sentiment must be considered a direct threat on the president and his family

nothing weird about that at all, in fact,

Once again our dead gay forums don't get their deserved name-check as the originator of all this madness:

But the typical internet meme doesn’t exactly come from nowhere. Its very Darwinian life cycle often begins among thousands of other memes on a group of obscure message boards frequented by the internet’s most devoted users, mostly young men, who Photoshop captioned images for their own amusement.
