  Because they ban people for “harassment” now for using the word fuck (or anything similar) in any context that might hurt some twit’s feefees.

    That’s not it. Swearing doesn’t create content.

    Reddit is boring and dumb because they insert a million sponsored posts. Plus the karma farmers are going overboard. It’s just karma farmers and advertisers now.

      Example:

      *“If you really want to improve yourself, stop concerning yourself with what pronouns others use for anyone or anything.

      Failing that, just shut the fuck up about it regardless of your concerns and you’ll have improved yourself tremendously.”*

      Someone I know recently got a ban for that verbatim as a reply to someone who said they wanted to accept criticism and “improve” themselves after saying stupid shit about how important it was to refer to unknown animals as it instead of they.

      If you don’t think that’s overzealous I’m not sure what to say.
