That kind of reply is a quintessential example of the arrogant self important horsedip that is runing reddit. You personally may want to live in an echo chamber with a bunch of highschoolers, anarchists, socialists, tankies, and the woke but there is a reason why reddit is not nearly as well regarded as it use to be, and its not because people lement the loss of hateful spaces. The idea that you have some sort of moral high ground; that people such as yourself are equipped to be the town censors - it's the peak of Dunning-Kruger effect in action. I have a reddit account as old as yours, the site has far less interesting conversations as it as languished severely, vandalized by by its self-flagulating management. I cannot wait for the day that these woke communities loose favor with society as a whole, their endless purity spiral will destroy them from within.


You say all this in a comments section of a thread masquerading as deep, earnest honest expertise instead of what it is —- self serving self interests for the OPs in group. So we have the multiple positive references to every rich person mentioned. Defending the corporations as not primarily money focused...

Instead of seeing any of that. Your response is to just complain about “woke” stuff?

So much of what you wrote applies to your comment: “arrogant self important”. talking dunning Kruger on others while writing “echo chamber with a bunch of highschoolers, anarchists, socialists, tankies, and the woke”.

It is interesting how the center and right have pointed the finger and says the left are snowflakes and triggered and whine all the time and so on. Yet comments like this and most similar discourse is doing what they are pointing the finger at. It’s wild.


this (your) ideological absolutism is not a hill I choose die upon. It seems you would rather look the other way upon a site harboring this material.

The content is harmful and the admins made it clear they will not allow it within their site. As a user, this is fine by me. By the way the word is `lose`, not `loose`.


Ironically one of the more popular tankie subreddits was recently quarantined for being too anti-NATO.
