It’s amazing, there really aren’t that many old heads around who remember the first year of the old sub, we had a fuckin struggle session about whether Native Americans are “ethno-nationalists”, and at the same time the rest of reddit was arguing whether Muslim men are genetically predisposed to sexually assaulting white women

I've been Reddit-sober for so long now that I'd honestly forgotten what an absolute shit-show that site was.

There is no “edge” on this site, if you lost a debate in some dead thread, take your L’s and move on, shit is not that serious

I'm still a bit sore over my conflict with the ban-hammer in previous social media settings. Yes, I know its necessary from time to time, but I'm inevitably biased against it unless I see the full case laid out. There was a point on this site when people were being banned for controversial takes on veganism and... just... come the fuck on.
