CTH was shut down for brigading and abuse though. It wasn't all that different from T_D albeit a better class of troll

[–] CyborgMarx@hexbear.net 19 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah you keep telling yourself that horseshit, just ignore the fact the admins flatly said we were banned for "inciting violence" in the form of "KIll all slaveowners"

Also "brigading" that's an interesting word, is that what you're doing right now?

[–] gowan@reddthat.com 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No because brigading is encouraging a subset of a website to raid something else. A single person cannot be brigading anything as a single person isn't a brigade.

How about many single persons acting individually with no direction?

Not sure that was the reason

Yes because only nazis oppose a system that does not achieve much other than mass murder leading to authoritarianism.

Yes because only nazis oppose a system that does not achieve much other than mass murder leading to authoritarianism.

The British and American empires also led the anti-communist crusade. You'll note the massive stacks of bodies and constant installation of puppet governments each one is responsible for.

If you think the Soviets weren't less mass murder-y by a magnitude less than capitalist or monarchist governments your head is fully inside your ass.

Also revolutions are the most authoritarian thing in existence. It is literally one class exercising control through physical violence and coercion against the class that has been socially murdering them and oppressing them until they collectively couldn't take it anymore and were organized enough to fight back.

To be fair nazis are where you hear that kind of shit from historically

https://www.reddit.com/r/chapotraphouse

This community was banned for violating Reddit’s rule against promoting hate.

Doesn't say anything about brigading.

And since we weren't a hate sub in any way, my only conclusion is they think "kill all slave owners" is hate, since they LITERLALY complained about that and removed our comments saying so. john-brown

Notably; promoting hate against dead slave owners, a protected class according to Spez.

"Remember the human. Reddit is a place for creating community and belonging, not for attacking marginalized or vulnerable groups of people. Everyone has a right to use Reddit free of harassment, bullying, and threats of violence. Communities and people that incite violence or that promote hate based on identity or vulnerability will be banned."

That's Spez's quote on the reason for CTH being banned. Looks like it was for all the threats of violence and harassment, which I absolutely regularly saw from CTH posters, and it had nothing to do with hatespeech.
