So the ChiCom-loving morons at Reddit finally sent me this important (/s) message this AM, that most of you probably got weeks ago.

Complete bullshit. They don't even say what message it was. They're not even trying to make a pretense that they are encouraging good behavior, they are just acting as totalitarian autocrats like their Chinese masters. How can you know what it was they didn't like? Why aren't they man enough to say what the fuck it was that upset them so?
In short, Fuck Them.
Sounds like you need some re-education for that wrongthink.
How people do not see this for what it is is truly staggering. It is straight 1984 without even trying to hide their intentions. Fucking batshit crazy. Free speech is no longer free.
Not "good behavior" -- APPROVED behavior.
Not supposed to. You're just supposed to shut up and comply.
In short, because then they would be forced to actually argue the idea/policy rather than just silence you instead. Ideas and policy suggestions from the "New Left" are such utter garbage and they know it, they cannot survive sustained honest discourse. The only way to keep them alive is to forcibly silence dissent.
Hear, hear
