I'm kinda glad he mentioned that r/CTH got banned to balance out the r/thedonald ban.
it was the reverse, though. thedonald was a ghost town at that point. thedonald was banned as cover for purging CTH
Yeah. People can mock internet posting activism all they want, rightfully, but CTH did do good things to Reddit. It exposed a lot of people to a different view of things, myself included, and lead a lot of people to better politics I think.
And for those on the other end, it made so many chuds and radlibs lose their shit. It was great.
Ya this is my theory as well. Donald Trump isn't a threat to capitalism.
I never watched the podcast and didn't use reddit at the time the sub was banned, but before I became a socialist google would keep giving me ads for the podcast on my browser homepage.
