It was called cringe anarchy because it made fun of anarchists.
I truly do not agree. Reddit has played games with changing the definition of hate speech constantly. Many subs that were well moderated were closed for very minor things that weren't upvoted. And if Reddit admins sit down to dinner with pedophiles (repeatedly, and only throw them out after mass protests...)
I completely disagree. CA in particular was quite well moderated and didn't brigade either. Reddit admins were notorious for using these as excuses to target subs they wanted to get rid of, while being lenient against other subs (AHS was basically a dedicated brigading sub! But merely saying something negative about certain subs could get an immediate warning.)
Man, that's insane. It reminds me we had an electrical engineering teacher claim the human eye can't perceive screens refreshing more than 30 times per second (never mind all our computers use 60hz monitors...)
I will strive to embody these adjectives.
That's kinda true. Then again, consider the history of any right-leaning sub or sub that makes fun of the left: Admins force unwanted mods into their subs. New accounts make "threatening" posts faster than mods can stomp them out, and get screenshots to other subs as proof the whole sub is terrible. T_D banned fir a post arguably advocating for violence against police... a few weeks before BLM kicked off, and every left sub was loaded with advocations for violence towards cops. Cringeanarchy got flooded with CP posts from AgainstHateSubs alt accounts and promptly shut down. (Cite: https://youtu.be/yUV9TyfYaEQ ) All this was, overtly or covertly, supported by reddit's admins.
Now, if you're still a r/conservative mod on Reddit after ALL THAT... you're controlled opposition installed by reddit admins, or you want to a reddit mod so bad, you'll compromise your values for it.
Average redditor lol
Now I can eat popcorn while watching some couple's life burn to the ground around them, but without the icky feeling (from supporting Spez's empire, that is).
Bit of a catch-22, because reddit is also counting all those 3rd-party users as part of their userbase when talking about how many users they have. These 3rd party app users also generate some of the content that draws undiscerning users to open reddit and view ads on the way.
Ok well SOME of that probably happened...
Damn. Different kind of wrong than I expected! It's hard to imagine teachers getting away with that nowadays.
Pro gun, pro choice... not a lot of candidates for me to pick from, hah!
