Or simply 'moderator harassment' for calling them bootlicking faggots when replying to those automated bans for participating in subs that didn't censor criticism of the covid hysteria.
I caught a ban from a sub for replying to someone who posted "_hoot _lon _usk" with "_ou're _etarded" and I received a threat from the site admins when I asked the subreddit mods why I was banned but the other user calling for an assassination was not.
i remember one of the "free speech" sub mods banned me for supporting null and then categorically refused to tell me why or what rule i'd broken, eventually referring me to the admins or "abusing mods"
But Reddit’s moves might come back to bite it. Its most fervent users are clearly angry with Elon Musk and with a social media ecosystem that’s already been happy to suppress frank discussions of identity, race, gender, and class warfare under the censorious mandates of the Trump administration.
Make it make sense. :')
Redditors continue to post anti-Elon and pro-Luigi content despite being removed and “filtered.” Users have threatened to leave the platform en masse before, but they might actually do so now that the most basic and fundamental mechanism of the website (i.e., voting) could lead to them being punished. It’s almost as if Reddit wants to drive away the very people who made it the front page of the internet in the first place.
Reddit needs to be shutdown for the greater good. Into the wood chipper it goes.
Reddit isn't the "front page of the internet" fucking Google is. Reddit is, at best, the letters to the editor section of the internet. A couple pages deep, and nobody really respects it.
They are basically intertwined now since every other search result is some reddit post. Not bad for technical queries, but anything about entertainment or politics is always from the woke perspective
As much as I'd love it if destruction of their echo chamber made them more sane and calm down, you have a good point. Just look at what happened when the NSFW section of Tumblr got nuked.
Oh, no. He has reserved a method more in His nature for round 2. "But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men." 2 Peter 3:7
Somebody like Elon needs to buy it and gradually close the vice on leftists like they did on normal people, but also let them keep their own heavily monitored btard style cesspit of communist degenerates. The individual subreddit format is perfect for that. Hell I'd even let them have their own version of a front page that they think is connected to the search engines but is effectively shadowbanned and disconnected from the real world. Freedom of speech not freedom of reach.
Inciting violence isn't freedom of speech though, that's been court tested.
The reason why reddit is "cracking down" is because law enforcement is reaching out about the daily death threats posted there.
I was getting 20+ people banned a week reporting "luigi" threats, before I got banned for "reporting people too much" despite over 85% of the people I reported being banned.
While I would enjoy the subsequent seething and gnashing of teeth that shutting Reddit down would cause, I also don't want Redditors coming to the places I left Reddit for.
What an insipid article by a retarded leftist author (of mother jones articles no less)

O'RLY?! I didn't see you say dick when Reddit used the same tactics against TheDonald and other conservative groups, let alone ones like TheRedPill.
You also didn't seem to care when we pointed out that the tactics would be used against you, too.
Nope nope, you wanted to own the chuds and now that you're facing blowback you're whining and crying that it's not fair and a threat to honest dialogue. Well welcome to the party, pal.
Oh - and don't think your little white wash of Luigi's supporters of actual domestic terrorism here didn't go unnoticed either
The ultimate irony is that I'm still pretty sure Luigi is at best a patsy. At worst, he's a smokescreen who had nothing to do with it and his life has been destroyed because he was in the wrong place at the wrong time and they needed a fall guy.
The r/FreeLuigi moderator also pointed to another factor that she and many other Redditors believe led to this change on the website: Elon Musk. President Donald Trump’s extremely online lackey has aimed plenty of ire at Reddit from his perch at DOGE, first attacking the federal workers he’s been firing en masse for discussing the chaos on r/FedNews, then expanding his purview from there.
Ah, so we're doing a satire article.
Banned for antisemitism against mods, who definitely are not all jewish trannies.

what a fucking joke of a site.

Thank fuck I don't use either of them.

The problem is, Reddit now is a containment vessel. Where will the radioactive locusts go if Reddit dies?

At this point, I have come to the point that only Almighty God could bring sanity to the Left. At that might be iffy.

Sounds like still reddit isn't fully complying with the law then. Your testimony may be useful in the coming DOJ lawsuit.
bluesky.

Domestic terrorists making threats on the lives of public figures is quite a bit different from banning pro-Trump subs for existing.
Mentally ill ideologues are the only group who are willing to moderate a site as big as reddit for free. Reddit reaped what they sowed.
The ultimate irony is that I'm still pretty sure Luigi is at best a patsy. At worst, he's a smokescreen who had nothing to do with it and his life has been destroyed because he was in the wrong place at the wrong time and they needed a fall guy.
To be honest, when I first heard about that CEO getting killed by "Luigi Mangione" I thought that the Italian Mafia got him.
I love these kind of article how they pretend Reddit is what it was like 15+ years ago and not the Commie shithole it is now.
rofl, yeah. Clearly a doublespeak propagandist.
Looks like the Tradcons and Reddit uave finally found something they agree on.
It's way too late for little fake half-measures like this to stop the radicalization. It has to be mass arrests and even that might not work.
It's probably only because he's white.
No they're not, they're just pretending to publicly.
I like that they found a way to blame Elon:
pRedditors are mad because all their fat bitches want to fuck him.
