more and more - noticing reddit is behaving like a late soviet union - banning shit left and right.

Someone made a post about “Which subreddit makes you think like this” -> “Finally, Pure Retardium” meme: https://www.reddit.com/r/repost/comments/1h3w0oi/what_subreddit_makes_you_do_this/

and many people were posting and commenting.

Then reddit just banned and removed that post. not only that - everyone who commented got a mod warning: “Do not speak negatively of other subs or specific users. This is called brigading and is against TOS.”

reddit - fuck off

    It’s all the platforms. As long as you pick a platform with massive money behind it.

    Wtf, talking shit about other subs is brigading now? What is this, middle school?

    It is my God-given right as a Bills fan to talk shit about the Jets and their fans. It’s a good thing I left there, because if they tried to pull this shit on me I would point out that they are impinging on my religious freedom.

      right! saying something negative - that’s not even brigading.

      Also, while we have fallen on hard times in recent years - but with Drake Maye we will absolutely destroy Bills (next year, or a year after) for sure.

    Reddit is now total hive mind. It’s starts with the Admins who have zero concept of how free speech works. At reddit you can be totally civil, follow their guidelines, and still be banned or punished somehow because you dared to wander just a bit out of the hive.

    So why the fuck are you still using it?

    Purge your account content, delete the accounts, never look back. That is quite literally the only answer to Reddit’s decay, and your only recourse left bwcause you have zero power over their site.
