Fuck it. I'll take my media raw. I'm not gonna block something just because it offends me and if shit posters start taking over the place well thats just society baby! I prefer it that way to giving some central entity the power to 'clean' up everything how they see fit. Not gonna lock myself into an echo chamber if I can help it.

To all the admins, thanks and take your time fixing things and if instances go offline for a while, thanks for giving me a social media break!

reasonable take, if redditors dont like it they are free to go back to reddit where saying slave owners are bad actually can get you a full removal and the CEO is literally someone who used to work for the CIA.

One of my strikes on Reddit came from saying slavers deserved to die. I can say that here without too much concern. But I also think it's counter-productive to continue saying it.

The double standard that applied to this while allowing redditors to daily bay for the blood of russian people is telling.

The CEO of reddit isn't simping for Russians the way he did for slavers from South Africa.
