Next they’ll ban OMD.

You’ve been banned from Reddit!

Not to mention the founding fathers. There were two camps, you had the Jeffersonian camp that was all about the people should be free to vote and do whatever, then you had the Federalist camp like Alexander Hamilton who didn’t trust the people and felt the gov needed a buffer against the mindless mobs. It is looking like Hamilton was right.

Putting up with? They are actively encouraging it.

Not so much morons as tribalism obsessed to the point they’d cut their own nose off to “win”.

I miss Bush Sr at this point.

Why don’t they just say what they really want? They want you to be docile, not challenge the echo chamber, and upvote everything and smile like an idiot. I’ve learned this lesson and pretty much just block all ragebait subs and mostly sit quietly in the corner. Just watch the ads like a good data point.

I got banned because I posted a comment on an anti vaxx sub (I was challenging one of their comments) and found out a lot of subs had ban bots that just watched who posted to subs they didn’t like. Whatever you do don’t put any thought into your mod work or look at the comment’s context.

Get rid of the goddamn up/down vote system then. It sounds like it is headed towards youtube where they only show upvotes to create a fake “yaaay!” impression.

Which sub?

Reddit doesn’t do anything about them unless the press gets involved. No way they’d crack down on their slavevolunteer labor.

Everyone just refer to his brother Mario

Iss die Reichen

Chew the Aristocracy

It doesn’t? Great, now you tell me. burp

What about “eat the poor” from A Modest Proposal by Jonathan Swift? “Kill the Poor” by The Dead Kennedys? Can I post “Eat the Rich” by Motorhead?

Reddit; hear no evil, see no evil, upvote no evil

Ehhhh! I justa wanna post a little bit here, eh?

Next, space x?

The only explenation I can think of is Trump is running everything like one of his businesses. You are friends with no one. You bluster and pretend, make outrageous demands with no intention of meeting them. He was notorious for not paying his bills and telling contractors to try to get their money. He may be playing the old tactic of asking for $1000 when you know it will be rejected and really aiming for $100 in the first place. He may not even have a plan and just posturing is his goal. He may just put this farce on for a few weeks, then drop it after causing chaos in the markets and with consumers. Then he’ll make some vague declaration of victory, his supporters and congress will cheer for him without asking any questions and he’ll move on to the next performance.

My question is why do his supporters think causing discord with our closest allies for 100 or so years is somehow helping us? I can only guess a combination of a total lack of education (especially history and analytical thought) and willful blindness, like the victim of a scam who can’t admit they were scammed.

We’ll be in joint counseling for years after this mess. Maybe a neutral country like Switzerland can be the moderator.
