[–]TheUniverseIsEmpty in whatever

Everytime there is a subreddit quarantine I laugh.

    [–]TheUniverseIsEmpty in whatever

    The reasons are so absurd.

      [–]go1dfish in whatever

      Yeah they are literally language policing now

        [–]TheUniverseIsEmpty in whatever

        They won't ban or quarantine bpt for being racists, but they'll quarantine waterniggas for including the n-word.

          [–] in whatever

          some subreddits have automods that autodelete comments with certain words

            [–]TheUniverseIsEmpty in whatever

            Itst absurd.

              [–] in whatever

              Whoever banned waterniggas is one dehydrated motherfucker

                [–]TheUniverseIsEmpty in whatever

                Look at offmychest. You get banned for POSTING in a certain sub.

                  [–]TheUniverseIsEmpty in whatever

                  Quarantine is not a ban. It's a "let's consider a ban," warning.

                    [–] in whatever

                    I've seen "paticipation in hate subs is grounds for a ban"

                      [–] in whatever

                      Banning is meaningless anyway, as its trivial to create another account

                        [–]TheUniverseIsEmpty in whatever

                        It's actually against Reddit's policies, but the admins threw that out of the window anyway.

                          [–] in whatever

                          Punishing people in one sub for what they did in another ?

                            [–]TheUniverseIsEmpty in whatever

                            Yeah. It's against Reddit's official policies to ban users for posting in a sub.

                              [–]TheUniverseIsEmpty in whatever

                              The admins don't give a fuck so it means nothing.

                                [–]TheUniverseIsEmpty in whatever

                                AgainstHateSubreddits is a hate subreddit, but it has the same agenda as the admins so it's also unbannable.

                                  [–] in whatever

                                  I'm never surprised when centralised pwer is abused

                                    [–] in whatever

                                    You gotta decentralise in the first place

                                      [–]TheUniverseIsEmpty in whatever

                                      Hey, goldfish, if you're still here, whatever happened to your Reddit account. I heard you talk about it a while ago. But I don't think anyone asked why the admins killed it.

                                        [–] in whatever

                                        Admins of a site acting badly is about as surprising as a dictator acting badly.

                                            Did the admins just nuke it from orbit? They've done that before.

                                              [–]TheUniverseIsEmpty in whatever

                                              Usually they suspend now.

                                                They refuse to log him in, if you try to log in as go1dfish the error message is different from the rest, or so it was about half a year when another nabber looked at his account

                                                  On injecting global policy into people's listing source: it may already work that way, but please display it as two separate listing sources, I don't want user actions to be mixed up with admin ones

                                                    Censorship is a tool, the end goal of your censor is not to limit your speech but to limit your thinking (self.whatever)

                                                    ensorship may fulfill different goals: it may be aimed at specific content or it may serve as a moderation tool, for example preventing people from arguing against each others. Even in the latest case censorship is aimed at specific words or behaviors. Free speech alone is not enough to defend our self from those who want to limit our speech, these people will use against you every tool at their disposal. The internet is only partially censored: there isn't much you can't find out there, the difference right now is only in what you see first. Reddit is a clear example of this attitude: they scaled the UI so you can see less posts and if you scroll down you always see plenty of controversial comments that don't align with the most upvoted.

                                                    The sad fact is, as can be seen with controversial comments, its the users themselves who censor the content with the power to vote, effectively contributing to the problem. The confirmation bias is to strong in large communities to sustain a quality debate.

                                                    True enough. As long as ISPs are dumb pipes the internet will be free. People can always self host and use P2P. It gets easier every year. Nothing (good) will change about the gentrified privately owned spaces that involve concentrations of money and that's fine.

                                                    [–] -0 points

                                                    The ISPs are filtering and censoring though.

                                                    [–] -0 points

                                                    Filtering, yes, things like port 25 email. This has been done for ages. Censoring? I'm not sure what you mean. Could you provide an example or even just expand on what you mean by ISP censorship? I haven't seen that personally.
