I just got word that the Redd(Guard)it admins pulled a comment that alleged that a certain actress who now says that she is 'transgender' was mentally ill.
Mind you, the assertion in question did not assert that this was because she was 'transgender'. Rather, the comment cited her (1) alleged advocacy for free 'sex change' surgery and (2) her allegedly playing mentally ill characters.
This did not assuage the admins. They seem to believe that the moment you claim to be 'transgender', this wipes away any mental health issue that you might have like Christians believe baptism cleans away any sinning that one has done. And if they believe that, it must be completely true.
So just like we are not allowed to question any election results, including those of Saddam, we now are not allowed to question the mental health of any 'transgender'. The individual demanding to be addressed as Chloe Sagal? Perfect mental health. Impeccable. Couldn't have been better.
As usual, please don't tempt fate, but rather, there are always good ways of expressing oneself that don't give these people an excuse.
EDIT: Here is the comment that was removed: https://archive.is/a75yi . Notice the title of the thread.
They get a lot of traffic.
Like the old saying goes: you may not be interested in war, but war is interested in you.
By that logic you advocate using all of the enemy's platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
Fuck using the product of your enemies.
All you end up doing is preventing the growth of alt tech.
Balkanization is inevitable.
Whether or not we should, that is quite different from claiming that they are 'dead'. Not yet. That is something we should try to accomplish.
We should just try to prevent them from making money off of us.
You kill platforms like Reddit by NOT using it.
You don't kill them by staying on it and getting censored and then crying about it.
It is very simple.
Reddit won't die if I stop using it. It would just mean slightly less sanity there.
They are quite desperate to ban us, so why do you think it would not fit their agenda if we self-banned?
Don't make yourself dependent on your enemy's platform, but giving your enemy uncontested access to normies just creates more enemies.
