Reddit died sometime between 2015 and 2017. Something just changed. Idk what it was but when I first went there in 2012 it had this freewheeling, Ron Paul loving, call OP a faggot kind of energy. Sure there were commies and losers a-plenty, but somewhere along the line it just became the world's largest astroturf.
I noticed that as well. I don't know exactly how, but it has to be China. Maybe buy out the powerful mods, astroturf, and the system eventually tips.
Ellen Pao. No coincidences...
They did buy both Politics sub, and Bernie sub.
I recall the mod of Bernie who was the guy who created the sub as far as 2011 or earlier, announced that he will be part of Bernie campaign and therefore he can no longer mod the sub. So he is interducing few mods he trusted.
They then backstabed the movement. They prohibited talking trash about Hillary, and always froze the sub so to focus on phone calls ( which mostly were fake numbers)
Then the moment Bernie lost, they froze the sub because he Bernie is no longer relevant.
Very dirty game.
One last thing, Hillary sub was a dead sub. 10 comments per day is the average.
The whole Ellen Pao thing is when reddit really jumped the shark. I was there for over 10 years.
I used reddit casually at best in the past - The_donald, on election night 2016 is the only time I went near any political forums. I went to a couple gaming forums, and the Opie and Anthony sub, until that show imploded and the sub for it lost it's damned mind. Which is what fans of that show did anyway.
But show me an era, or forum, or any circumstance where liberals have been able to tolerate free speech, and haven't tried to immediately take over any forum or gathering of people and imposing themselves on it.
Everyone is rightly concerned about the Dem controlled government going after the 2nd. But I'm also seriously concerned about them going after the 1st. They're outright saying conservatives and GOP should be punished, if not outlawed. They've always muttered it, but now they're being open about it. And that scares the living shit out of me.
The first amendment was narrowly saved by a 5-4 vote a few years back. That's gone soon
Wasn't it Correct The Record back then or it is the same thing?
