I don’t think that’s the point. It’s not about if it’s fair; the issue is that it’s stupid and self defeating.

Expect nonsensical crap like this to come out of CNN from now on. Sorry to say, but the new owner is gonna turn it into another Faux clone.

As for my opinion, I don’t believe the claim in the headline for one second. I am supremely confident it’s manufactured BS.

No. I will vote against the full blown, unapologetic fascists, because that’s the worst the GOP can manage, which is all you will ever get from them ever again.

Go back to Reddit.

Your first point…I’m sorry, it just looks like a classic “strawman”. All I will say is that there are many reasons to leave reddit, but this particular argument fails on a simple premise: # most of the time, users upset with specific mods likely did not leave reddit, but rather just created new subreddits in direct competition. But there is no singular reason to leave reddit; even so, the most popular reason currently is something entirely different.

Second, the community explicitly was not closed; it was relocated. As others have pointed out already, this does not remove or restrict your access in any meaningful way.

Last but not least, there reasons are very clearly and directly communicated. I see no fault with their reasoning, or the action they took.

Second frame takes it all away for me…maybe I’m “old” but her face does not inspire me to think “humor” :(

I like your response, just wanted to say that for the record.

Long term, well… I think we will need very drastic change; I just hope we find a path to said change which minimalizes the violence potentially involved.

But anyway, thank you again for the well written reply.

I was addicted to scrolling reddit. Wanted a replacement, rather than getting rid of said addiction, so here I am. Nothing noble about that! Lol

I’m delivering papers, wee hours in the morning, middle of winter. Just had a storm recently, so roads were rather icy. Go to cross the street when my dog starts acting all weird, won’t let me cross. Just as I’m getting frustrated, suddenly a pickup truck comes barreling around the corner. Driver immediately loses control on the ice, truck goes into a sideways slide at a pretty high speed.

That truck missed me by maybe a foot at most.

Goes in my left pocket, cause I always hold it in my left hand. That way I can use my right hand to run my apps.
