Well, I don't seem to be banned from here, so a few rebuttals.
First, they called me out for having AZ flair in
/r/The_Donald. K. I also have the same flair in
/r/SandersForPresident. I also subscribe to both subs. I find American politics to be interesting. I follow all of it. I also live in AZ.
The quote of me where they say:
I also want to add that my interactions with subs that represent each candidate have been nothing but super nice, cordial, and dare I say, professional.
Is 100 percent true. Mods of all of the aforementioned subs were super nice. I'll also add
/r/SandersForPresident
to that list because at the point I made that statement they hadn't been featured yet. I'll further reiterate that I think they're all patriotic Americans who are supporting a candidate who they think is best for their country. I mean, of course they are. No one becomes an activist to be a troll.
Further, I am pretty sure that Mr. Trump and Sec. Clinton have cinched their respective nominations, so Americans will have a choice to make. That is up to everyone. Not me or SROTD. We just let them talk about their subreddit. That's all.
That said,
/r/subredditoftheday
featuring each campaign during our town hall is no more an endorsement of hate than CNN inviting on all candidates to their show during theirs.
A key element of fascism is the state censoring speech, which is what these guys aim to do. They even dug through four years of posts to pick what, five examples? SROTD has made one post a day for years. Their analysis is dishonest to say the very least. I'd call it an outright lie.
The rest of what they said about me I don't take issue with because it's accurately quoted.
Example:
Funny. I was going to reply to that and say the truth, which is that we've invited every major sub for the remaining candidates to come here. Yesterday was
/r/hillaryclinton, the day before was
/r/KasichForPresident, the day before that was
/r/TedCruzForPresident. Tomorrow's planned feature should now be obvious. But no. "It's It's because we're just trying to regain relevance by featuring hate subs because we've been losing popularity for a while and featuring KiA was a boon for us."
That is objectively true. The only thing I'd add is that we did
/r/SandersForPresident
the day after I said that.
Point being, going back through
1460
SROTD posts to cherry pick four or so examples that they "hate" is disingenuous. It's ridiculous.
