Warning: Elon Musk now has Huffman bending the knee. Whitepeopletwitter, iselondeadyet and loads of other Elon critical subs have been banned or suspended.

Just a warning, Reddit is no longer a safe place for free speech, it is compromised.

    Last time I checked you couldn’t start throwing death threats, addresses, names , relatives addresses and names, willy nilly on a private platform, then complain about being banned from it when the admins of the subreddit don’t do their jobs complying with said private company TOS

    That’s not free speech

      The mod of a sub I watch confirmed earlier that Reddit is threatening moderators who don’t comply with removing the names of Elon’s goons from their subs, claiming that spreading those names is doxxing.

      Those names, by the way, are Gavin Kliger, Ethan Shaotran, Akash Bobba, Luke Farritor, and Edward Coristine.

      But nice scapegoat you got there.

        Let’s be real for a minute - yeah these twentysomethings are disgusting bootlickers. But there’s always gonna be people like that. No one’s gonna kill them all, and Elon will always find them.

        The problem is this: people voted for Trump knowing this was gonna happen. That’s the hard to swallow pill that we all gotta take. Most voters did something really fucking stupid, and like countless people stuck in mentally challenged societies of the past, we have to suffer with them. That’s just how it is.

          I desperately hope the EU grows some balls and walls us off from the malign influence that is Musk and Twitter. We’re sleepwalking into our own Trumpian dystopias.

        “Scapegoat”. Do you think death threats towards others is acceptable? It’s easier to completely end discussion of those you mentioned rather than police every thread and remove threats.
