> Personally, I'm working on a reddit bot to spam the site/pm users with the truth I hope that is sarcasm. Consent is important, and spamming people with whatever pet theory you've decided is the "truth" is certainly not the actions of a moral person.

  Well, good luck with that. Surely this strategy will work great.

    How so? A sitting United States president was mass banned a few days apart by Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Reddit, Apple, etc. Hell, even Shopify, a Canadian company joined in the fun.

      There is a difference in perspective here. Being a sitting president didn't excuse him from breaking their codes of conduct. A person who broke their codes of conduct, who also happened to be a sitting president, was mass banned.

      He had just attempted to usurp the presidency of the United States, this wasn't censorship run amok

      Are you suggesting that important people should not be subject to the same rules as the rest of us?

  > This is war, That pretty much sums up most online forums these days. Most of one group: This disagrees with my views. I'm going to boycott it / ridicule it / or ask it to go elsewhere / some/all of the above. Most of another: This disagrees with my views. THIS IS WAR, I will destroy it! A few sensible people on all sides try to have a more mature debate, but are drowned out by the cacophony, mostly from those declaring war.

    I think you're forgetting the mass censorship, which you so cutely describe as "ask it to go elsewhere". If the original Reddit, facebook, or most other OG forums were introduced today, that "one group" would do everything in their powers to take it offline. The everyday members of that group also refuse to use that service until it conforms to their censorship needs.

  That's called Righteousness. Until you win hearts and minds, nobody's going to want to hear what you have to say. Strafing a community with truth bombs will not endear them to you, even if you're right.
