Pointing out that something doesn't solve anything is no argument against it. I don't think jogging will make me live forever, but I still do it.

- nemothekid 11y agoYes it is. "Jogging" isn't something that doesn't solve anything, jogging solves lots of things, and hopefully by jogging you can live longer, if not forever. Banning 1 hateful subreddit on an open forum does nothing to solve to issue of someone being called a hambeast, or someone being an asshole in general.
- cactusface 11y agoJogging solves things A, B, and C. Banning a subreddit does not solve D and E. But, jogging does not solve D and E either. Maybe banning a subreddit solves some things like F, G, and H?
- fenomas 11y agoSorry, typo - my post should have read "Pointing out that something doesn't solve everything is no argument against it". In other words, just because banning /fph won't entirely solve the problem of People Being Assholes doesn't mean it's a bad idea.
