[2015-08-11]The Reddit We All Want It To Be (anti-censorship)

I'm curious to see how long it'll take until Theymos or one of his cronies deletes this post, but here we go....

Reddit is one of the most popular platforms on the Internet when it comes to sharing content and having a discussion about any topic you can imagine. Such a great platform sooner or later attracts the wrong crowd, and in the case of Reddit, that wrong crowd goes further than just the users. Even subReddit moderators are not free from blame, as quite a few of them enjoy restricting free speech and picking their own favorites.

You hate Reddit because it's run by asinine SJW Pao and/or LiteralHitler Theymos runs the BTC sub, so you fuck off to voat.  Fair enough.

But you also hate BTC subverse mod BashCo, because he makes airtight arguments defending the fact XT is an altcoin.

So you flake off again.  And this is 'social consensus' you're left with:



Plenty of room in there for all you Theymos haters.  Move along, don't let the door hit you where the good lord split you!

Enjoy exquisite self-righteous purity of your self imposed isolation.

I love how you cronies come to his aid within a few minutes of posts like these going live

Just for the record, I don't use Voat, it's just an example of a semi-finished project while others are in development.


Also, your language use such as "LiteralHitler", "fuck off"  just go to show your level of maturity , so I should really thank you for proving my point in a way

that 1-2 people control the two main sources of information is definitiv not a good thing.  
maybe the blockchain can bring us some more freedom here.

WTF are you doing here, suffering under the control of 1-2 people at one of "the two main sources of information?"

Shouldn't you be with your Gavinista friends, bringing us more freedom, at https://voat.co/v/BitcoinXT ?

Fight the power, bro.

I am nobody's crony, and I hate censorship for the wrong reasons... but this is kinda getting out of control now, and it's not pleasant to see the Bitcoin community being split into 2 groups for no good reason at all,

but to serve the agenda of a few individuals. The cronies of these individuals are playing the victim card and resort to name calling, to get their point across. This is counter productive and serve no purpose.

Do you really think behaving like this will change people's minds on the subject? Yes... by all means, protect your freedom of speech, but keep it civil and within the rules of basic discussions. I appreciate a good

debate, but this is getting old very quickly.

I appreciate a good debate, but this is getting old very quickly. 

The blocksize debate has been going on for years.  If it was going to get old "very quickly" that happened a long time ago.

Or did the debate not begin to age until *YOU* recently discovered it exists, then grew impatient with the impasse after a few hours of deep research skimming reddit and passionately downvoting mod and core dev posts you disagree with?

Your problem is that you are new here and have no clue about what's happening or what's at stake.

Fretting about the debate "getting old very quickly" wont help XT, and only demonstrates you are a noob with a very limited attention span.
