I love how the sentiment on Reddit is "stay here so we can fight it!"

As if the user base has any aggregate control. It’s not as bad as purely algorithmic sites like Twitter, but still.

The sub was shadowbanned from r/popular so we aren't really growing from there.

Reddit mods had power but then became turn coats as soon as their power was challenged.

"We're going to protest on Tuesdays! Every other week!"

They all caved when Reddit threatened to take away their mod status.

That's when I knew that they were just as power hungry as spez.

Under fascism, all corporate media is controlled by the enemy basically by definition. It will always be leveraged to undermine resistance to the regime, and that goes double for social media since it gives them so many more tools beyond mere propaganda to subvert groups trying to organize.

Using the enemy's platform is a monumental failure of OPSEC bordering on the literally suicidal.

even after I still won't trust the admins

I mean avoid using reddit by all means, but doesn't this post still being up prove that they're not being censored?

TrumpAndElonMustGo3 • vor 10 Std. AS IF TO PROVE MY POINT, TRUMPANDELONMUSTGO2 WAS BANNED FOR THIS POST.

Please welcome me! TrumpAndElonMustGo3.

I can do this forever. Fuck Elon.

Huh, that indeed does strengthen the case.

But why was OP banned without the post being removed, still quite a mystery
