Comment on Reddit Falls Short of Ad Growth Targets Ahead of Likely 2024 IPO

Reddit is the most censored platform on the internet, who wants to use that? Before the API fallout, it was barely tolerable with the subreddit fiefdoms and the shitlords who ruled over them with a pudgy iron fist. To be honest I’m surprised it took so long to make an open source link aggregator since it sucked right after the ye olde digg debacle. “They’re our enemies”

Tbh I prefer “censorship” over wide spread fascism. Or I would but the fascism is still rampant on reddit

I’m ok with the platform having open speech, so long as I can find communities within the platform that have basic rules of decorum. If I can’t filter out people, like the assholes I have to interact with at my workplace, to actually engage in intellectual discourse without it revolving into this racial slur or that political opinion, I’ll just find somewhere else to spend my time.

Censorship is fascism.

Censorship is fascism when it’s the government that does it. When it’s a forum then it’s other people telling you that your a fucking asshole.
Free speech is not freedom from consequences, or freedom from judgement.

reddit shadowbanning new users is right, gotcha. Sounds like a great platform please go there.

You’re more than intelligent enough to understand the difference between constitutional free speech and forum discourse.

And are you intelligent enough to understand how reddit works today? By shadowbanning users en masse but no you guys jump the gun because of your nazi leather fetish
