    This is why I just ban people who show up just to post anti-communist hostile shit in the Deprogram sub.

        It really is pretty nice, also starting to have some of that old chapo energy where it makes it near the front page and gets confused liberals and :frothingfash: stumbling in to get bullied.

        We also have quite the nice discord community.

          I didn’t know about the chapo energy and stumbling chuds and libs in the deprogram sub, but I’m addicted to bullying them so much I made the VaushCheck bot. Guess I’m going to have to subscribe to deprogram sub now.

            Yeah we're trying to learn from what got chapo banned to begin with. So no direct links to brigade, a bit heavier hand on anything that could be viewed as :fedposting: etc.

            Also much tighter moderation of reactionary class reductionist shit and generally just trying to keep it good vibes. Basically like this place but sneaking back in to reddit.

              I’m down for that as long as I can bully chuds and libs, preferably with bots that make fun of them.

              My only complaint about the sub (one of my favorites) is that it is constantly flooded with dunk tank style fascist takes which I could get from SLS or similar subs. I don't want to take psychic damage when I click into the sub. I want to shitpost and laugh about old men with giant balls and Yugo actually being Tony Soprano

                That is perfectly valid and something that is much less prevalent on the discord. I do want to start cracking down on the dunk posts not just for that reason but also so we don't get clapped like the Chapo sub did.

    Weird how "da jooz" are apparently in control of everything, but capitalism, especially capitalism run by WASPs remains the ultimate sacred cow.

      First they came for the Iraqis, and I said nothing because I was not in Iraq.

      Then they came for the Street Fighter II Turbo fans, and there was no one to speak for me.

        It is anonymous on reddit. There are so few people reporting content though that moderators start to recognise specific reporters just by patterns in their reporting, especially if they leave a message in the "other" option. Combine this with the user messaging modmail about their report and some reporters identify themselves.

        There's no identifiable information the mods see (unless the report came from another mod or an admin), but the site admins do know who sent in reports in case of suspected report abuse. People can be really annoying with reports, one guy on /r/askscience got so mad his post got removed that he reported every other post and comment for the past week. Again idk it's the same guy that did that but when you get an angry screeds in the mod messages and every post and comment has a report you can guess what happened.

      No it's "I am shutting down the thread because it is making a lot of work for me because you fucking morons can't just let someone disagree with you on the Internet"

      Take your pick

      • Actually, WOTC is being authoritarian, which is communist, not capitalist

      • It's not capitalism, it's the greedy new CEO

      • Don't bring politics into my board games

      • If they were communist they would have gone bankrupt and everyone would have starved to death

        I’d respond with “Dictatorship of the bourgeoisie is also authoritarian.” and then push them into :reddit-logo: :pit:

    There is almost 15k upvotes, which is honestly a quite positive result.

    And mods closing posts so their queue doesn't get spammed isn't really anti-communist censorship.

    Unironic “well capitalism made all of these things including the phone you’re commenting from so checkmate tankies” in the comments
