Which will kill the site honestly. As it becomes more clear that it is a farrrr left echo chamber more regular people will leave. And as more moderates leave you will see it move even further left and it will become just another socialist spewing news site. The only reason it has a seemingly large influence is because any moderates that go to /r/politics, /r/news, /r/worldnews etc. they are given a large number of the same ideals that seem to be popular so they figure that maybe this is the normal train of thought. As more people notice the echo chamber it loses any significance it once had because all of the people yelling there can be dismissed as members of that echo chamber as opposed to normal people commenting.
It is basically the same way that they painted /the_donald as a crazy right wing community. People just assumed that we were and never ventured into our subreddit. Same concept really. As stupid as their ideals are they are very good at leading the narrative.
Exactly I have used reddit for years and it has changed significantly. Normal people will continue to leave and push the average user more and more left. Soon only socialists and Europeans will be jerking eachother off to how they still can't understand why Trump and nationalism is rising when everyone they talk to is far left wing.
When I first started going there it was extremely Libertarian and Ron Paul support was at the level Bernie support is at now. What a shithole it has become
Jokes that were once upvoted were then looked at as "problematic."
Several years ago in Reddit when someone reposted something and claimed it as OC, everyone would call OP a faggot in the comments and it would get upvoted. Nowadays you would probably get banned for saying that.
Which can be a positive (for our cause at least). One of the reasons that we see more moderates shifting right is because where else can they go? If the media was even a 80% fake news as opposed to 95% we would see a huge portion of the population wonder how they could support such terrible ideals. It is ridiculous how much the left is protected from explaining their decisions and their shitty views.
Now I am not saying that Republicans do not have their bad eggs (there are many), but our movement is trying to remove those. But Democrats seems to be committed to bringing in even more radical ideologies.
I'll say that given the choice between your average Republican or your average Democrat, I'll take the Republican every time. The vast majority of all politicians are absolute scum, but I find the decent-to-scum ratio is higher in a population of Republicans than in Democrats.
Same here. Not sure how much the political compass test shows, but I'm actually slightly left of center on it. Of course I'm called a Nazi or alt right in real life

Or the "regular people" will just be converted. Censorship works and we need to stop pretending like it doesn't
Im done. I dont go there anymore. Owned by the Communist Chinese, leftist Propgandists, and foreign cucks. Im done. Everyone on td.win should be done forever with it as well.
I agree and I love the smaller communities. But even the sports communities get extremely toxic whenever politics do come about. Luckily they have not infected my favorite small subs but I hardly go there anymore out of spite.
For me, once it started effecting video game bullshit with politics it ruined a lot of fun conversation. ‘Video games MUST be like this or else you’re a bigot’ fuck off, I just want to kill something.
‘Why do these two fall in love, why can’t you fall in love and have a gay relationship’
I’m all open for that kind of stuff in video games. The more options and whatnot the better...but fuck, let a writer be creative and write the story they want to write and not the story you want them to write to make you happy. Play something else.
Skyrim came out in 2011 and you can be a homosexual furry if you want. Then when you introduce mods, the only limit is what your imagination allows.
Personally, I played (and still sometimes play) that game because I found the gameplay itself to be enjoyable and the collection of story-expanding mods to be substantial, but to each his own.
I was wondering why my tranny prosthetic leg guy kept cooking his grenades too long and blowing himself/herself/xirself up . Thought it was my controller or a glitch, turns out it’s a feature.
From day one the news about that game was a shit snowball rolling down hill. I was already on the fence from the first stories I read about what they were up to but there's no chance i'm buying it now.
Anita Sarkeesian is a dumb cunt, self-employed shill.
Remember gamer-gate? Oh, that was all about sexism in video games, and male vs female gamers, right?
Wrong. That's what it got turned into by Anal Skeezian and her ilk. It was originally a story about a female indy game developer who got a game journalist to give her awesome reviews in return for sex. And the indy game dev tried at first to cover it up with the story of "well we were dating at the time, and I realize now it was a conflict of interest, but I didn't think of it at the time...." Bullshit. The two were never dating. Straight prostitution, good game review for sex.
But we can't have that be the story. Can't have the story be "Shitty female game dev whose only completed game to date is a shitty & depressing visual novel sleeps with game journalist in return for hype for a game she's working on".... Because then we would think women are shitty game developers and/or programmers who use their body to get what they want and cry sexism when it doesn't work.
Like that woman who complained about the "bro-culture" at Uber.... Remember her? She was the QA (quality assurance) lead. I can assure you, from personal experience using the shitty Uber app, that she was bad at her job.
Now, I'm not going to say that women suck at programming. The first programmer ever was a woman (Ava Lovelace), and there are plenty of women who possess the math and logical skills to excel in computer sciences. What I will say is that diversity hires suck ass.
Developing a compiler was a logical move; but in matters like this, you don't run against logic - you run against people who can't change their minds. I had a running compiler and nobody would touch it. They told me computers could only do arithmetic.
Her programming language, FLOW-MATIC, was extended and is now known as COBOL and is still in use today.
She was an amazing woman in other ways too, the first woman to earn a Ph.D. in mathematics from Yale University - in 1934!
I'm totally against women in combat, because we live in a culture and a society that imposes on every man the concept of women and children first...If you had a man and a woman trying to go through some dangerous woods, the man's instinct would be to protect the woman. Therefore you weaken the man.
I've received many honors and I'm grateful for them; but I've already received the highest award I'll ever receive, and that has been the privilege and honor of serving very proudly in the United States Navy.
I heard she was just a very manly woman and not really trans and she just kills Joel, Ellie, and her lesbian lover because of how evil they were in the ending of the first game. You play as her to show the standard CYCLE OF REVENGE needs forgiveness crap.
How are subs like t/tumblrinaction looking these days? They were never necessarily conservative, but they were still a beacon of hope for people who weren't deranged sjw's.
If you have a really old account, I have one that's 10 years old, go see if you ever submitted anything to /r/politics or something like that way back in 2010/12/14. Read the comments, and compare them to today.
I was on Reddit since 2010, it's so crazy to see how "opinions" have changed. The first time I believe I noticed these changes was 2015-2016, but crazy enough I think the changes from 2018-Now are even bigger.
Of course we saw lots of changes before 2018, but you could still find reasonable voices, even if they were peppered about. But now, you can't find anything. The front page, everything, everyday is anti-trump, anti-conservative. Every post, every comment. It's totally under leftist control.
I just browsed a bit of plebbit today.
It's pathetic.
There are no conservative voices left on reddit .. none.

2012 to 2015 Reddit was awesome. 2016 on it slowly eroded away into the crap it is now since around late 2018.
Also the interface is terrible. It is basically unusable except in the old mode.
Reddit is a great platform - if you want to be woefully misinformed on a wide variety of topics such was world politics, movies, sports, science, etc.
Several years ago in Reddit when someone reposted something and claimed it as OC, everyone would call OP a faggot in the comments and it would get upvoted. Nowadays you would probably get banned for saying that.
It's always funny to me when people claim that I'm a far-right extremist.
Political compass test says I'm basically dead center. It doesn't get a whole lot more centrist than my views.
I'm only a "far-right extremist" because the Overton Window has moved so far left that anyone to the right of Lenin is a right-winger.
Which can be a positive (for our cause at least). One of the reasons that we see more moderates shifting right is because where else can they go?

We're all human. Nobody's perfect.

There’s more to reddit than just politics but even that is being squeezed out.
I used to go to reddit for sports and hobby subs but now I end up going elsewhere to get the information.
I still use reddit but my time there has been cutdown drastically.
I agree and I love the smaller communities. But even the sports communities get extremely toxic whenever politics do come about. Luckily they have not infected my favorite small subs but I hardly go there anymore out of spite.
For me, once it started effecting video game bullshit with politics it ruined a lot of fun conversation. ‘Video games MUST be like this or else you’re a bigot’ fuck off, I just want to kill something.
Heh, kill something. Imagine an FPS where the enemy is trannies. Takes the fun out of it because 40% off themselves before you get a chance to.
It was more
‘Why isn’t the hero a woman? Sexist”
‘Why do these two fall in love, why can’t you fall in love and have a gay relationship’
I’m all open for that kind of stuff in video games. The more options and whatnot the better...but fuck, let a writer be creative and write the story they want to write and not the story you want them to write to make you happy. Play something else.
Plenty of RPGs have those kinds of options.
Skyrim came out in 2011 and you can be a homosexual furry if you want. Then when you introduce mods, the only limit is what your imagination allows.

Ba dum tsssss
I was wondering why my tranny prosthetic leg guy kept cooking his grenades too long and blowing himself/herself/xirself up . Thought it was my controller or a glitch, turns out it’s a feature.
It exists and is called Battlefield 5.
Just got banned yesterday in the Games subreddit for calling The Last of Us 2 a tranny trap.
The devs of the game have concealed that you'll be controlling an alleged Big Mike for half the game. Thanks to the leaks, I avoided the surprise D.
From day one the news about that game was a shit snowball rolling down hill. I was already on the fence from the first stories I read about what they were up to but there's no chance i'm buying it now.
Get woke, go broke.
Are you SERIOUS?! You have to play as a Tranny!? WTF IS EVEN GOING ON IN THE GAMING COMMUNITY?????
Oh. My. Gosh. Youre not even kidding. You play as Abby who is CLEARLY a MALE for the entire second half of the game.
This is insanity. Peak clown world.

You're asking the wrong questions. Hownid he getting his hormones in a post apocalyptic [email protected][email protected]!
Shit is stupid.
Same here, that character is beyond disturbing. They won’t be getting my $$$
You can’t be serious... gaming has changed a lot.
Anita Sarkeesian is a dumb cunt, self-employed shill.

The person who invented modern programming was also a woman - Rear Admiral Grace Hopper

Good post pede. Even now years later I never knew the full story of gamer gate
https://humanevents.com/2019/08/21/the-real-history-of-gamergate/
This was the first shot fired in the now raging SJW culture war.
I’m still confused why my call of duty game has women with prosthetic legs and men in frilly outfits now....
It was visited by honkler
What the fuck...how does it even add to the story of Joel and Ellie? Man...oh no...
I heard she was just a very manly woman and not really trans and she just kills Joel, Ellie, and her lesbian lover because of how evil they were in the ending of the first game. You play as her to show the standard CYCLE OF REVENGE needs forgiveness crap.
They're controlled opposition now. The real conservative voices are either quarantined or banned.
Is lockdown skepticism compromised? It was decent

My plebbit account is only 3 years old.
But I can imagine.
ShariaBlew owns r/politics now .. as well as the rest of plebbit.
