First they came for...

Twitter just announced something similar, and Imgur's acting the same the past few days. Looks coordinated to me.

http://www.theverge.com/2015/6/10/8761231/twitter-block-lists-share-import-export-social-media-trolls

Twitter is letting you and your friends join hands to block trolls and miscreants Overdue support for blocking large hateful groups on the social media platform

Twitter users will now be able to export and import block lists, the social media company announced today. Any user can curate their own list of users they block on the service, then export the list and share it with others. This will, in theory, help those in the Twitter community receiving harassment from similar sources, allowing users to collaborate on block lists spanning entire groups, not merely individuals.

God forbid some person adds to you a popular list because they misunderstood a joke or just because....

This is clearly just the beginning. By the end of the summer, Reddit will not be a safe space to go against the grain. It'll be Digg version 2.0, tumblr style.

[–]maddata 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

Try making an conservative argument in politics...

try claiming that the robots won't come to took err jeeebs in futurology

FPH was great motivation every day to stick to working out... sad that it's gone. I love how people are claiming that it promoted brigading, when one of it's top rules was don't brigade, don't link elsewhere. Meanwhile srs is an entire subreddit dedicated to highlighting disagreeable comments...

[–]ThrowawayShitlord777 14ポイント15ポイント  (0子コメント)

Censoring reddit.. yeah this will go over well. Have fun with the majority of your users going to another site.

Oh wait there is one, its voat.co , everyone from /r/fatpeoplehate are going over here btw. Make sure to join us if you aren't fupa having lard.

[–]lulzmaker 10ポイント11ポイント  (1子コメント)

Reminder to all those saying ban SRS, it's a shadow of its former self and everyone there wised up when bans came for bridging. You want to know where they all went? /r/SubredditDrama.

The scariest part about this isnt the subreddits that have been removed. Bizarre choice when so many more inflammatory subreddits exist, but that's not that bad. It's how they're presenting it that turns up the dial. If you go to /r/fatpeoplehate it says what they say in the announcement. It's done to 'keep people safe'.

Correct me if I'm wrong but nearly every fucking thing that reddit has collectively stood for in opposing, SOPA and all the other shit bills, were all done in the idea of 'keeping people safe' but were just limiting free speech. Isn't that what reddit just did? Limited free speech? Granted it's shitty things to say but shouldn't they be allowed to say them? What's to stop this from extending further and applying to more and more subreddits? I'm not condoning the behavior, just the right to at least speak their mind. We all have block functions, we can use them. We can ignore them. They're not on the front page or anything. They're routinely downvoted or at least lambasted in comments.

Anyone have a replacement to reddit?

[–]lilTyrion 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

it's "sex sells"...everyone knows it's a thing but it still works regardless. clamping down on things for reasons of "safety" or "the children" is freshmen year manipulation but it still works especially when those clamping down are the venues that set the parameters of the debate.

[–]AustNerevar 1ポイント2ポイント  (1子コメント)

it says what they say in the announcement. It's done to 'keep people safe'.

That really disgusted me as well. They aren't even trying to hide their ideologies, anymore. Reddit has become total trash and I don't understand how the mainstream users cannot see this.

What is this Voat? It seems to be loaded with traffic. Barely loading on my end.

www.voat.co

At least until that turns into the next digg/reddit...hopefully a long time from now.

[–]bunk3rk1ng 16ポイント17ポイント  (12子コメント)

Well first they would need to invest at least several dollars in some infrastructure. That site is slow as fuck.

[–]lavaisreallyhot 24ポイント25ポイント  (8子コメント)

It probably has to do with the massive influx of new people

[–]bunk3rk1ng 3ポイント4ポイント  (7子コメント)

Well duh, I would think they would be ready for this kind of thing. It's not the first time a big sub has been banned and voat.co has been the recommended alternative.

[–]lavaisreallyhot 10ポイント11ポイント  (5子コメント)

Yeah probably but /r/fatpeoplehate was one of the most active subreddits on reddit, like 3rd or 4th most active (even though it paled in comparison, subscriber-wise, to other subreddits).

[–]ZippityD 2ポイント3ポイント  (3子コメント)

Really? That's a lot of people. More than the defaults?

[–]lavaisreallyhot 5ポイント6ポイント  (0子コメント)

No, it had around 150k subs, but it had greater activity than many of the defaults.

So in this list: http://redditlist.com/

It was within top 10 on the left list, the "Recent Activity" list.

Edit: Oh hey, even though it's been banned, it's still ranked 13 in Recent Activity. Look at that.

[–]crrc 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

yes

[–]ryan-ryan 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Literally, the most active.

[–]turdovski 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

It's run by one guy right now. The more people flock there the more help/funding he might be able to get.

[–]Crackmacs 7ポイント8ポイント  (1子コメント)

It's not usually slow at all. Been using it for 3~ or so months, this is the first slow down. Maybe ddos? They've had huge reddit influxes before with no issues.

[–]butter14 4ポイント5ポイント  (0子コメント)

No, it's because of the massive influx of people visiting the site because of these new rules. Reddit is becoming the new Digg.

[–]FranktheShank1 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

it was fine up until the FPH ban. Reddit hug of death

[–]SnowyGamer -1ポイント0ポイント  (1子コメント)

I've visited this site a few times, and for a complete knock off it sucks. Maybe it's because the user base is so small, but it's so bad.

[–]turdovski 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

Reddit was exactly the same in the beginning. Chicken and egg problem, site will suck until more users come, but more users won't come until site doesn't suck.

[–]CoolDeal 13ポイント14ポイント  (10子コメント)

I don't see any anti-female/feminism subs in that list of deleted subs, so I don't understand your comment. FPH was an equal opportunity hate sub for the most part, I believe.

[–]Amannelle 1ポイント2ポイント  (4子コメント)

It was an amazingly encouraging place, imo. They were all in arms against one thing and one thing only-- obesity. They were quick to snuff out any racism, any sexism, any ageism or homophobia. They were quick to uphold and compliment people who overcame their obesity. They simply targeted one thing, and that was HAES.

[–]Sallum 4ポイント5ポイント  (1子コメント)

They were quick to uphold and compliment people who overcame their obesity.

You are joking right? They didn't care if people lost the weight. FPH's motto: once a fatty, always a fatty

And I love how people are forgetting how often people were banned there. So much for free speech.

[–]Amannelle 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I was banned there too for being slightly overweight. Doesn't change the fact that it was a sub that let people express their disgust in a world where they are otherwise powerless to do so. I don't blame them. In fact, I hope to join them as I keep losing weight. They actively congratulated people who lost weight, and even one woman who talked about her cycling routing (once having been made fun of) was being heralded as an "up and coming shitlord" that people hoped to have join them someday.

[–]CoolDeal 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

They also did things like take a progress pic from a weight loss sub and use that to harass that person. Also took a pic posted in the sewing sub that showed the OP sewing and put that in the fricking sidebar of the sub. They also outright banned anyone trying to make a point against the hate.

[–]Amannelle 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Did they actually harrass those people PERSONALLY? Like, message them, follow them, downvote brigaide them, etc? Talking about it on their own sub is their own business, or are we policing conversations too?

[–]JJWattGotSnubbed 1ポイント2ポイント  (2子コメント)

What if it comes down to someone really high up in reddit is really fat and just didn't like the sub. I'm not sure I would be surprised at this point.

[–]quicklypiggly 1ポイント2ポイント  (1子コメント)

This is about as sensible as saying that r/shitniggersay was removed because there must be a black person on the staff, implying that it was not removed because it is a horrible place that flies in the face of established societal strictures.

[–]JJWattGotSnubbed 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

No, I think that and a few others were removed to cover their asses, or so it seems. I mean if they are saying brigading is the issue, then why pick on the small hate-filled subs, there are tons of others which brigade worse than fph, and especially those other smalls ones which were banned. Looks like fph was singled out in this instance IMO.

I can understand why the homophobic communities might have been removed (still, free speech?), but fatpeoplehate? Obesity is 99% of the time a lifestyle choice. Sexuality is not. Why are they being protected?

[–]docbloodmoney 51ポイント52ポイント  (0子コメント)

The other subs were only removed as a distraction. They all had so few readers that nobody knew or cared about them. This is completely about FPH

[–]SnowyGamer 13ポイント14ポイント  (0子コメント)

Because this is just the start. They are probably going to implement a lot of stupid shit this summer, essentially destroying their site.

[–]Insula92 2ポイント3ポイント  (2子コメント)

Having sex or attempting to live as another gender are just as much lifestyle choices as eating too much and exercising too little.

[–]Amannelle 2ポイント3ポイント  (1子コメント)

That is a good point, but other people don't suffer from transexual or transgender people. Having to reengineer facilities to accomodate extra-large people, capacity decreasing on transportation, clothing sizes becoming larger and larger (and harder to find for skinnier people), healthcare costs skyrocketing, productivity declining, not to mention the entire culture around HAES and the bodyshaming it constantly does at fit and skinny people. The whole thing is an issue that will only keep growing (no pun intended). Even though I still classify as overweight (and am working to become fit again day by day) I REALLY appreciated FPH. It was an excellent source of motivation for me and my mum, and it really made me realize how skewed my own personal view of "healthy" was.

[–]LightBetweenMirrors 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

You're forgetting the biggie -- preventable, obesity related disease costs the healthcare system $150 billion per year. That's $10 billion more than the entire federal education budget. Just so people can stuff their faces with shitty food.

[–]AustNerevar 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Fat People Hate is really a terrible subreddit...doesn't mean it should have been banned, however.

Everytime I've tried to explain eating disorders to somebody from FPH, I get called a fatty. Seriously, any valid point you might have is met with ad hominems. It's like trying to debate an SJW, it's pointless.

[–]exvampireweekend 3ポイント4ポイント  (2子コメント)

I don't think it's about who is the right victim to harass or not, it's the harassing in general, "but it's their fault they are being harassed" isn't a good excuse.

[–]querent23 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

as much as addiction is a lifestyle choice. some things are harder for some people than for others.

[–]LightBetweenMirrors 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Something being difficult doesn't excuse a person from lifestyles that affect everyone else. Obesity-related illness needlessly costs the healthcare system $150 Billion per year, more than half of which is paid by tax payers. More kidney and liver transplants are due to preventable, obesity-related diabetes than all other diseases combined. Businesses lose over $60 billion in revenue every year due to lost productivity from obese workers. It's not a personal choice. It's affecting the entire country in a very deleterious way.

And 2 out of 3 people are not drug addicts. The same cannot be said for people of unhealthy weight.

[–]butter14 6ポイント7ポイント  (4子コメント)

Enough is enough. Reddit was started to be a free and open site to communicate with others not a place that was constantly being monitored by admins that can actively ban any sub without notice.

Sure these subs suck ass, add nothing to the conversation and a generally bad places to visit but I would rather them exist then face admonishment of my first amendment rights ability to express myself freely.

This is how it starts people. I've been a redditor for over 5 years, made thousands of posts and I'm fucking done. I'm actively looking for another community.

Yeah, that's old news. There was massive uproar then, too (literally none of the top comments were agreeing with the decision), but the admins ignored that too. Look up (?|?).

I understand the things about banning homophobic subreddits, that's nothing that can be helped because you don't just choose to be gay. Things like /r/fatpeoplehate should be left alone. Sure, people might not like that idea. No one says that you have to visit there and it's definitely not a default subreddit. Obesity isn't something you're born with, it isn't something to be proud of. You might as well be injecting poison in your body slowly because it's just killing you.

One big reasons why reddit won over digg was the fact that you can isolate your self by unsubbing from annoying subreddits and go to places where it aligned with your interests.
