Almost anything on Reddit as seen as a micro aggression if u oppose something/anything there.
For God’s sake_don’t oppose anything amoral there_you’ll be corrected ASAP. Complete LIB/Socialist playland!!
It’s a joke!

The Trump subreddit is pretty good.

It seems to me every conservative should find alternative platforms and move there completely. I don’t care if that succeeds in shutting down these free speech hindering liberal hell holes or not and I don’t care if every liberal stays there.

Can I force them to find me a Baker, to make a Cake with Guns on the icing?

Absolutely! But not before you are first refused by a Baker, sue and appeal to the 9th Circus Court for an affirmation ruling based on precedence and discrimination.

Why should conservatives banish themselves to lonely internet echo chambers populated by a small handful of old men yelling at clouds while watching Bonanza reruns? How does that further conservatism? Reddit is the 4th most popular website in America. That's where our messaging needs to be.

Donald Trump didn't win the election posting here on Free Republic. He posted on Twitter, the 8th most popular website. Facebook is the 3rd most popular website in the world, Youtube is the 2nd.

The reason why these sites are taking steps to silence conservative voices is because we succeeded.

Running away to our own little dismal corner of the internet wasteland is not the answer. Growing balls and fighting back is.

Dear Reddit, cars are used in the commission of crime more often than guns.
Please ban all car threads too if you want to be intellectually honest about it.

4th most popular website in the world. It's where people are.

Did I miss something important?

No, grandpa. Go back to yelling at clouds and watching Bonanza reruns.

You know the grand irony of the YouTube gun shift? It was a gun-related post by the Florida school shooter that gave authorities a GRAND opportunity to have PREVENTED the tragedy altogether.

YouTube has gone crazy. They banned a video of JD’s Variety Channel.

He is a kid who does metal detecting and the video they banned was one that he discovered part of a child’s cap gun in a yard dig.

Since then they have demoniterized and/or restricted several of his videos.

This is a war against all topics of interest to conservatives, Constitutionalists, and Christians.

They are trying to silence us.

Reddit isn’t just limiting conservatives, they are also limiting themselves. This latter will start to show well after the former.

I joined R and read there daily while dealing with a specific legal issue, as there is a fairly good legal sub there, at least technically, although wildly left-leaning. And then I found the AWW pet sub and was truly smitten. Then I ventured out to ASK... and studied it a bit, and a couple of other semi-mild ones. Once I checked out the random sub and was shaken for the rest of the day. Most of that site’s subs are cesspools of depravity beyond description. It was both educational and terrifying. I had to leave for my sanity’s sake. I tried to fight back for a while, but it was like a force of nature against anything mildly civilized. And I never went near the obviously sick subs.

Everything a Democrat touches turns to shit.

They take things that don’t belong to them to give to people who don’t deserve it, in order to buy their vote.
