And then banning the bubbles that engage in wrongthink.
- mcherm 5y agoHonestly, I think there has been very little banning of bubbles for "wrongthink", it's mostly been banning of bubbles for "wrongbehavior".
- prepend 5y agoI think it’s wrongthink or potential wrongbehavior. An example is there was a exhibitionist nsfw subreddit, and it was shut down because people kept flagging non-offending posts as nonconsensual. Even though the literal subjects would post stuff like “that’s me, it’s cool.” The sub was removed. Tons of examples like this. It’s not that big of a deal and no major harm. Just part of the reason I think Reddit sucks and I don’t go there. The little serendipitous fun of the internet was all over Reddit. Now it feels like a totally lame person lames over everything.
- dude187 5y agoThat's not really a fair depiction though. They ban based on "wrongthink", because active disagreement of many things is considered "wrongbehavior". The end result is a reinforcement loop of the echo chamber, with a widening of what is considered "wrong"
