Censoring Reddit's History of Free Speech

30  2018-01-11 by WarSanchez

For those long/mid length users here, it's pretty obvious reddit has been trying to censor it's past as to allow it to shape it's future.

As in they want to remove all the old negativity, this includes censoring subs by either forcing them to go private or deleting them altogether.

Here is a very interesting take by one of the more well known OG Redditors known as /u/go1dfish.

I think it's very important to know the stances and politics of any service you use to know the who/what/why about it.

Thanks for your time.

While not required, you are requested to use the NP (No Participation) domain of reddit when crossposting. This helps to protect both your account, and the accounts of other users, from administrative shadowbans. The NP domain can be accessed by replacing the "www" in your reddit link with "np".

They want to IPO, I hear.

Most corporations cater to the loudest and materialistic fish in the sea: the oppressed, luxurious, reactionary, identity obsessed youth (or, recently divorced).

The spender, who is emotionally spending as much as they are emoting about things they really know nothing about; things sound good, taste good, feel good = that's good.

This is the age of catering to the consumer-prime. The biggest collective fish in the sea; the emotionally infantile that consumes as hedonistically as a baby on breasts or bottle.
