    Fucking wow man. Fuck reddit. I got perma banned for arguing with a FAR left mod 3ish years ago. Im liberal as fuck. Believe in rights for everyone, hate ice, despise Trump, believe in welfare, hate racist cunts etc, etc, etc. Politicians arent celebrities to be pit on a pedestal. They are public servants elected to serve… the effing public. What i don’t believe in is BLINDLY supporting someone just because they are affiliated with my party. And thats ultimately why I was banned, I argued with a mod that blindly supported democrats no matter what they did. In the end I took it on the chin and never looked back because fuck that

      See, funny thing is, my two sub bans and my temp bans were because i pointed out that voting against fascism was still a decent way to spend a tuesday.

      I think we live in unprecedented times and we need to correct a clear abuse of power before we have the luxury to return to how we would want to do things.

        Yea but how the heck do we accomplish that? Im not disagreeing with you. It just seems like an impossible task…

          Stop going to reddit? It takes away their influence if no one goes to their shitty subreddits. If they have no one to mod, they’re not modding anything or anyone.
