The funniest fucking thing is that Reddit is anonymous. Nobody knows you're anything, unless you tell people.

You may not get the responses you like (hell, none of us do), but the idea that someone can hunt you without you going out of your way to give them your public information, is the stuff of fairy tales.

Craiglist leads to people being robbed and murdered all the time. But let's focus on people debating ideas we don't like on a single website out of billions on the internet.

    These bloggers are so fucking lazy it hurts. Their idea of "journalism" consists of smashing a whole bunch of SCARY WORDS together taking advantage of the average mouth-breather to translate it into "everything is literally hitler", and call it a day.

    Well lots of us who were in politics know that this happens a lot. But this is opening the door to many other people now, this is going to be good. Delicious even, I don't think they could do anything better to show everyone that there really is cliques of people out there wanting to shove a narrative down your throat.

    For the new guys, this is really what kicked off the big surge with gamers. We always knew the corruption was there, but in this case it's big enough that even my father(aged 64) is asking me about it and it was the big discussion where he works. And most of those people are the ones that browse bestof/all/etc.

    Fun Fact: You can go to Stormfront and actually engage the Nazis in debate and conversation without them losing their shit on their own forum.

    I'm new to this sub, mostly came because I'm pissed at Reddit and Ellen Pao for their change in stance on free speech. Apparently you guys are the biggest sub that is outraged or something. Anyways, feels great, it's like I'm finally outside the echo chamber of bullshit in the main subs, claiming only FPH is angry.

    I think I went to FPH once when I found out it existed like a month ago, due to boogie's video. So this has nothing to do with that subreddit or any specific one, but I'm sure I don't have to tell you all. I'm wondering if we will see some articles against Reddit though, after all, they did leave up some very racist subreddits like /r/coontown, so it could be argued they are completely okay with racism. Anyways, glad to be here where people actually have a brain, well said.

    2. OMG, NEOFAG WAS NOT ABOUT GAY PEOPLE. Can you be any more dense?

    [–]bgp1845 76ポイント77ポイント  (29子コメント)

    the most ironic part is that they made it worse...i'd never run across ANY of the subs - in fact the only i knew even existed was neofag and FPH. but now that she's arbitrarily removed them - the clones/backups flood the front page now. effectively making the problem worse than it was.

    [–]TheFlyingBastard 35ポイント36ポイント  (28子コメント)

    Right. I mean, there are things I really don't like about your average redditor. Mostly it's the bellyfeel and using the word "faggot" while insisting that it's totally not referring to gay people you guys but here is a picture where OP is sucking dicks.

    But that's just me. I don't like it. I am kind of offended by it. But what am I going to do? Would I eject everyone who does that if I could? Of course not, ejecting a massive amount of people doesn't work. If I would like to see change, I'd have to do my best to convince people, to discuss this with them, to convince them that it's not nothing. And if I don't succeed, well that's tough. Maybe later.

    Change has to come from within. Not from outside force. It seems that admins have yet to learn that.

    [–]Karmaze 43ポイント44ポイント  (9子コメント)

    It's not even that, I think it stems from a culture that believes that can "force" people to change. That if you put enough negative social and cultural pressure on people, that they will change their ways.

    I don't think that works. I think what ends up happening is that those people resent the social/cultural violence that's aimed at them and they entrench those beliefs, moving deeper into them. Furthermore, other people who also object to the social/cultural violence aimed at them join them in those beliefs.

    That's EXACTLY what happened here.

    [–]RaveMittens 21ポイント22ポイント  (1子コメント)

    Wow, I've been on reddit this whole morning and this is the ONLY thread I've read that actually feels like the reddit I know - people discussing things with well developed ideas instead of screaming obscenities and names at each other. So I just want to say thanks for that.

    And I think what you said holds a lot of truth and goes way beyond this little instance on the site. Just look at the incarceration industry in the US. This fits our culture on macro and micro scales.

    This. Cultural change of any kind requires time and gradual acceptance. Forcing immediate change always results in resistance. That's a fundamental fact, and one that completely eludes these people.

    [–]Inuma 16ポイント17ポイント  (2子コメント)

    I don't think that's accurate...

    Change requires dialogue and open communication.

    These people want to be nannies. They act like parents treating people like children and have no respect for the idea of different communities, even the ones that play by the rules but are controversial.

    They change culture through force, not understanding. That's why they will fail.

    I think what ends up happening is that those people resent the social/cultural violence that's aimed at them and they entrench those beliefs, moving deeper into them.

    I was raised a Jehovah's Witness, which is a Christian cult. This is exactly the trap many ex-JWs fall for. In their enthusiasm or anger, they force this newfound knowledge on current members because they have this feeling that they can save these people if only they listen. More often than not, they just dig in their heels though.

    Forcing someone to change their mind never works.

    [–]nogoodliar 11ポイント12ポイント  (11子コメント)

    This is a shorty story, but stay with me... There was a gay guy on real time with Bill Maher and he was asked how he felt about some popular guy on tv using the word faggot. The gay guy said he didn't care, because the TV guy grew up with faggot being the worst thing you could call someone, so now when he's looking to be mean that's his fallback. It has nothing to do with a hatred of gays, it's just an attempt to hurt someone's feelings. Does it really matter what you say when that's your goal? Calling someone dumb and someone a faggot have the same intent and can be said without actually having any negative feeling toward gay people.

    Plus the word sounds aggressive and mean. Just putting that out there.

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

    So, if an old guy that grew up before the civil rights movement was using the word "nigger" as an insult, if would be okay?

    [–]BrittlethreadConfirmed Illuminati 7ポイント8ポイント  (0子コメント)

    What the OP was trying to say is that: the meaning of the word "faggot" doesn't matter, just that it was perceived as very offensive to gay people. So if someone wanted to offend a gay person, they would call them a faggot; this however doesn't say anything about the offender's opinion on gay people in general.

    My take on this: When society segregates insults to only apply to a certain race or gender, it makes it easier for jerks to offend those people personally. Making a big deal out of it only makes it a bigger deal than it would be otherwise.

    In more eloquent terms: By prohibiting these words, we are perpetuating it's use; it's not a solution, it's part of the problem. This is just my opinion though.

    [–]TheFlyingBastard 1ポイント2ポイント  (6子コメント)

    It's kinda off-topic, from the point I was trying to make, but alright.

    It has nothing to do with a hatred of gays

    I could see that, if only people didn't so often refer back to actual homosexuality by what is posted. If it was just stuff like this, I would totally buy that.

    But often pictures like this and this and this and this and this and - well you get the idea - are posted, which make it very difficult for me to believe that people aren't still referring to homosexuality in a derogatory fashion.

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

    Think of it this way... It's possible to hold two completely conflicting viewpoints. Gay people are equal in every way to non gays, and Ted Cruz probably goes home and guzzles a bucket of dicks every night.

    i completely agree. strangely enough, me and my gay/lgbt friends used the word faggot/fag for just about anything, but after reading some of the far-right subreddits where they use the term seriously, i all of a sudden feel dirty using the word again despite roots in chan culture

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

    Well yeah, it's a matter of familiarity too. I don't mind if my friends poke fun at me by calling me a fag, but that's because they are my friends, they are closer to me and they're not overdoing it or anything.

    It's like making a nazi joke with a German friend, which is very different from making a nazi joke to a German total stranger.

    [–]KosherDensity 3ポイント4ポイント  (1子コメント)

    Using the word faggot is a chan thing, not a redditor thing. On the chans you would be a gayfag and complaining about the word faggot would be what would make you a faggot.

    The SocJus loons follow the general policies of Malcom X when it comes to dividing people up and segregating (Basically they laud MLK while shitting all over his name and promoting Malcom X's ideas instead). So I'm not really surprised that they left that sub up.

    [–]Inuma 2ポイント3ポイント  (4子コメント)

    ... Explain Malcolm X's ideas...

    [–]Vallorn_ 2ポイント3ポイント  (3子コメント)

    Well. I wrote about this before on another website so here goes.

    If you look at the history of Malcom X and MLK... Well, Malcom X was convinced that things like drug use and the like were forced onto black people by a white oppressor (Not saying ti was black people's fault but nobody is forced into drug dependance, and I say that as a person with a recovering heroin addict as family), sounds suspiciously similar to the Patriarchy or other excuses that mean that bad choices that 'oppressed' people or groups make are not their fault but instead the fault of some overarching power.

    Not only that but many of Malcom X's policies were, in essence, segregation mixed with some form of devolution. He didn't want to mix or even work with white people in any way, regarding them as trying to get their power in edgeways if they had any power in black civil rights movements. Reminds me a lot of the old "Trans people are just men trying to infiltrate womens spaces" and "The best thing you can do as a feminist man is shut up".

    So, while SJW's (Rightly) hold up MLK as a good person to follow with regards to equality, their views and actions reek of the same kind of views as Malcom X, but unlike Malcom they did not grow up under a violent and oppressive society (His dad was lynched then left to be cut in two by a tram for example), no they grow up pampered, well heeled and with a trust fund... And they DARE to talk about how they are oppressed... I can even sympathize with Malcom X, his views and policies were, in part, a result of the horrible shit that he grew up with (Like Magneto and his experience with his Nazi tormentors) but SJWs are... There is nothing to explain where these views come from other than an authoritarian and vile streak.

    (Note: I am not an expert on Malcom X or MLK, if I said something wrong, please correct me)

    It won't hold. Eventually these companies need to start making money, so they make decisions not because they are right, or because they believe in them, but because it has an impact on the revenue. This shift was evident in Digg 2.0 and it's becoming clearer now on Reddit.

    Reddit's policy worked in the beginning because until a few years ago this site was the underdog, a sort of non-mainstream alternative to Digg and the people that preferred Reddit chose it precisely because they defended these values of free speech above all else.

    Reddit is now one of the most seen domains on the internet. They have a growing team and a long list of advertisers. Brands use and abuse the system daily to push products, launch viral campaigns and make sponsored AMAs. They are not the underdog anymore, so they don't need the community that made this site what it is. They need it gone, they need a clean face and a sanitized frontpage.

    Voat will hold for a few years, maybe a decade if we're lucky, but eventually all start-ups need to start making money.

    nothing lasts forever, having a site last for 5-10 years would be optimal, but now we would know what to look for, and could speed up Voats decline before this level of absurdity hits. 5-10 years for a website is a good run, honestly.

    He basically came up with the concept that capitalism is constantly renewing itself. Different Ages have different ways that capitalism forms up such as how the industrial capitalists and slavery capitalists collided to determine the future of America.

    3: The simplest way to explain the behavior of any bureaucratic organization is to assume that it is controlled by a cabal of its enemies.

    sad fact is, the only organisations able to resist SJW's and weed out their entryists are far right websites and anarchist shitholes like 8chan

    the more bureaucracy there is, the more entryways these people have.

    They're very much free speech, so I doubt they'll ban SJW subs, but they have implemented a few features to render brigading useless, and they're interested in implementing more.

    Also, no default subs, so there's no standard targets for cancerous admins.

    That first article had me laughing so hard. Is the author a puritan right out of the 1600s?

    Several Voat posts praise free, open conversation and rail against power resting in the hands of the few.

    How the fuck is this a bad thing? This is idealistic in the western world.

    You'll also find links to stories about Bernie Sanders and medical marijuana.

    And I'm sure there's posts about how great Ronald Reagan is. Or how Jeb Bush would be the bestest president ever. Pick your poison. What is your point?

    Underneath the anti-Reddit rants of Voat's front page lies a steaming heap of porn.

    Porn? On the internet? Say it ain't so!!

    Voat might already be over: Its servers weren't built to handle this flood of traffic, and it's near-impossible to access.

    Cause that's never happened to reddit before...

    Give them a week or two to upgrade, and they will be fine. Then I can leave this social justice shithole.

    I can't tell if it's lack of research or wanting to follow a certain narrative (or both), but it's not that people are mad we lost a sub dedicated to making fun of the obese (and show the unhealthy/medical reasons to not be obese), it's the fact that it is CENSORSHIP. 1st world countries do not censor people, period.

    If the WBC is allowed to picket funerals of dead soldiers and hold up signs that say "thank god for dead soldier" under free speech, we (the Internet) sure as hell should be allowed to make fun of fat people.

    This is the attitude I got from some people who complain about Reddit on /r/subredditdrama They think it's a hateful racist sexist misogynistic pedophile defender haven but still post here, but complain about it, instead of making better communities...or taking place in the big communities. (But then if you point that out they'll say default subreddits are hateful and bigoted which is why it matters more...) Someone told me minorities don't feel welcome on subredditdrama. I said I was a gay autistic and I didn't really feel that way, Ieven though I got an autistic iama on the front page there once. They ended up saying how much they felt bad I fell for a reactionary movement like Gamergate. It made me feel so patronized and angry.

According to the CEO, they're banning the abuse, not ideas. So if you want a sub for peado dog fuckin' (I made that up but there may be a sub already for it, I'm not searching for that though) that's fine, we'll host that. Just don't abuse anyone while you're on there!

    The fact that fatpeoplehate was banned alongside hamplanethatred with a couple other subs with hardly any readers, makes it pretty transparent that they were going after a specific set of subreddits that target obese women. They don't give a fuck about protecting black people, gay people, trans-gendered people, dragon-kin, squirrel-kin, wolf-kin, potato-kin, puppy-kin (not to be confused with dog-kin), kitty-kin (not to be confused with cat-kin AKA feline-kin), babysnail-kin, rock-kin, THE LIST GOES ON AND ON

    What they do care about (for some reason, I would put my bet on money) is catering to overweight females who spend a lot of time and money on the internet poking each other on facebook and complaining that someone laughed at them today at the supermarket because they had to ride their little scooter around and it was too big to fit through a narrow aisle so they had to go around. Oh and playing those ANNOYING FUCKING FACEBOOK GAMES THAT IF YOU'RE FRIENDS WITH THEM THEY WILL INVITE YOU OVER AND OVER TO PLAY WITH THEM, EVERYFUCKINGDAYYOUFUCKINGCUNTSTOPFUCKINGINVITINGME

    This is exactly what will guarantee the success of whatever reddit alternative springs up. I hope it's not voat personally for various reasons (comment voting is no way to have a free discussion).

    These people cannot stop following this drama though. They cannot stop gossiping about them. They are reporting on content makers, and no matter how distasteful the content might be people will always follow the content. Hopefully now you're seeing that a massive amount of the people judging

    I wish people would be more honest about it. FPH posts rarely got anything above a few hundred votes, yet these posts in /r/all were frequently hitting the 4K and 5K mark within hours before they started removing them. There are a lot of people who cannot help but follow that. Whereever the content goes the "haters" will follow

    If you lay down ground rules/principles for what constitutes a hate group, then there would be more hate groups on tumblr and facebook than on reddit.
