I didn't downvote you, but the subreddit had nothing to do with race. I never saw anything about that during my time. Whatever your thoughts are on interracial relationships or media agenda, it's an easy way for a subreddit to be banned. If anyone wants to oppose that, Reddit is 100% the wrong platform. Even as parody, it'll be shutdown super quick -- there's not much twisting you can do on the topic.
The whole biological sex-based semi-parody focus was doomed for failure too, of course, because even if that was allowed, there were a lot of comments while I was browsing on /new/ that explicitly stated that trans men and women are not men and women. That assertion of gender is definitely not allowed on Reddit. It's why the subreddit creators went out of their way to say that trans mxn and womxn are mxn and womxn (or something along those lines).
Maybe they'll successfully contest the ban, but the community was waaay too active for there not to be "hateful comments" (hate as defined by Reddit, of course), and there was visible TERF activity as has been acknowledged in multiple places -- including 1 of TheDonald threads covering the ban -- so I don't expect any permanence since liberal Reddit admins need nebulous excuses to get rid of what they don't like.
Lastly: having this (super straight) sort of content on places like the WIN platform is completely pointless. It HAS to be on Plebbit or other mainstream media, pushing their own rhetoric against them.
It was inevitable. As a meta point, I saw too many comments basically on that subreddit supporting "radical feminism" or "feminism" that is not "liberal feminism".
Sorry, I don't fuck with that. TheImpossible1 doesn't always get it on the money with his examples or commentary, but as a general movement not reliant on anecdotes, it is anti-men and no amount of caveats will change that.
Let the TERFs and "super liberals" eat each other.
Have a separate list for companies/brands and celebrities.
See The Traitors of America list for an example - https://archive.vn/wvWe2
Sticky this. I'm expecting a very thorough and complete list.
Edit: u/DomitiusOfMassilia if pings work on WIN.
Excerpts:
In the six “Safe Sleeping Villages” set up by the city of San Francisco during the pandemic, the cost of maintaining a single tent-camping spot is $5,000 per month, or $61,000 per year - more than it would cost to put each of these people in a market-rate apartment.
San Francisco counts about 6,400 people as homeless, although that doesn’t include people living out of their cars, or the thousands who flit from temporary shelters to relative’s residences to friends and neighbors — anywhere they can find a place to lay their body down. Many of these people have jobs that don’t pay them enough to live within 50 miles of San Francisco.
“But we really need to dive deep to see if this a sustainable model… without any federal reimbursement.”
Austin, Portal, San Francisco, Seattle, etc., are all liberal shit holes that are ravaged by a homeless crisis...and it's not from a lack of available resources.

The closure notice was pretty abrupt, so I didn't recall the details despite reading it at the time, but it's as how u/Lurker404 says.
Doesn't seem like they're going to be that inclusive, better hope you visually shape up:
In the interview, Clyburn said a debate about reparations would lead to a debate about who would be eligible due to extensive family trees that have come about since the abolition of slavery more than 150 years ago. Clyburn said that some white people could make claims to reparations, saying they have family ties to former slaves.
“Is that a fair way to do it?” Clyburn asked. “I say not.”
Well, yeah, it's Congress. All they do is whore themselves out for political favors 1 way or another.
In the case of Democrats, super cynically trying to keep minorities on the teeth of welfare...beyond simple humanitarian means.
Meh, money printer's going to keep working overtime either way. Especially if they're serious about student debt -- those rates are a fucking joke.
“If you start talking about free college tuition to [historically black colleges and universities] and you start talking about free community college in Title I and all of those things, I think that you are well on your way,” [White House senior adviser Cedric Richmond] said, noting that a timeline for Congress’s commission to study reparations wasn’t known.
Democrats, true to their platform, are pushing reparations and minimum wage agendas, despite the US debt being almost $28T.
There were some dark times recently in the stock market, due to Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell's choice comments within the past week or so. Some cynical might suggest his comments about the economy being 'a long way' were intentional.
Either way, inflation has been warned about for a while now, and it's picking up tone. The COVID-19 relief stimulus is attempting to be pushed through the budget reconciliation process. It contains a lot of pork as most spending bills.
Now, we're seeing the push (again) for reparations / free college, and most assuredly we can probably see something about healthcare later in this regime's tenure, I assume. These are the economic times today.
People can support Trump without being completely blind or intellectually dishonest. That's my fundamental issue and I've seen plenty of it across multiple communities because, of course, it's all on the WIN network. It's far better to face things head on than being deluded into thinking everything's fine.
I don't dislike Trump and I don't advocate anything against him since his platform is the best current offering, whatever its flaws. But I don't like the complete lack of intellectual discourse that's possible without skewing all of reality; it's the other, opposite, lesser extreme of having to put up with liberal politics, and neither's good.
Limited tax cuts that expire in a few years.
Expire for us but not businesses.
I can't be the only one who thinks that something stinks here.
You're not, but this is a Trump cheerleading platform, which lends to some user base overlap, so it's rare to see any meaningful talk. Anything that can even be considered as slightly critical of him gets downvotes from some folks, but usually not with factual counterarguments. Basically, it'll get approvals from those who agree and some disapprovals, but no meaningful dialogue that might be enlightening...which makes it an overall waste of effort.
Trump's the best president in my lifetime, but standards have been set low. I think Ron Paul would have been better, but that's an alternative reality. Trump's hands are tied by Congress since he's only part of the executive branch, but there are a lot of excuses that conveniently absolve him of all fault. He has to take some responsibility but fans only assign softball ones.
Election fraud is a weird one. He deserves blame for his regime failing to address the system, but I don't think anyone could have expected the Supreme Court from pussying out. I didn't, and thought it'd set a landmark decision to fix things once and for all. Unlike Big Tech and other matters this should've had him with some form of agency, even if late, but it didn't. It's a complete miscarriage of justice.
I'm not really into episodic stuff since I favor RPGs, but:
- Pokemon, obviously, is a good play
- Advance Wars if you're into strategy
- FF Tactics Advance for easier strategy
- Harvest Moon if into farming
- Metroid takes maybe a few hours per run
These are all for GBA, never played DS and it's been a while so I forget most of the titles.
There's also the standard staple of Mario, Luigi, Wario, and other Nintendo games that might fit.
No politics this year for some reason - https://www.rt.com/usa/516805-golden-globes-trump-politics/
I picked up 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim second-hand that u/Daucus9/ mentioned. Played the first few character intros and really liked it.
However, I'm busy with a project and that's all I did. Made 0 progress on Danganronpa 2, which I should have finished by now.
Ah, I see. Good point. Another user also pointed out:
I don't recall seeing that, maybe I missed it or it was put up after I last browsed it, but tons of red flags all over the place.
Would have been nice if it just stuck to the satire.
