LOL that WotB is now being suppressed even on the front page of Saidit.

Everyone needs a fair shot.

[–]NetweaselContinuing the struggle 9 insightful - 4 fun9 insightful - 3 fun10 insightful - 4 fun -  (10 children)

But not yet specifically suppressed. Saidit is an equal opportunity suppressor.

They suppress just about everybody.

    I suspect most SaidItors know about and use the /s/All. WotB is disruptive to them, in a generally good way - for now. Ideally they'll learn to branch out and post in topical subs too.

    With pros and cons, it's the new folks who won't know about the /s/Subscribed and /s/All situation that the admin imposed upon us without consulting us, as usual. And this is, and always has been, the biggest problem of SaidIt - and is a main reason why SaidIt won't/can't grow.

    [–]BlackhaloPurity Pony: Pусский бот 4 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 2 fun -  (4 children)

    But it's not like WotB was ever a default sub on Reddit either. Seems like a non-issue to me. I can see /all in my header.

    [–]JasonCarswellWay Of The Burning Man 3 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 2 fun -  (3 children)

    The issue is that WotB may stay insulated in an echo chamber on SaidIt, akin to /s/TumblrInAction and /s/DebateAltRight - currently maintaining - and completely miss out on all the other topical subs and the wider community. When the wider community does better and grows, the entire site does better. When it's just little tribes, a few still remain but many of them have faded or died out or moved on.

      Your "regulars" definition applies to the groups I mentioned, and others - as well as the "larger" small SaidIt community. I visit other platforms but haven't found one to relocating to. Yet.

      Well, look at it this way: they may actually be doing us WoTBers a favor, by leaving us off the front page until we get our bearings, so to speak.

      That is a reasonable way to look at it, except for one thing: Saidit leaves almost everybody off the front page, by design.

      You have to know to go to https://saidit.net/s/all to actually see everybody.

      Honestly, good. As much as I hate socialism, it's good to have more diversity of opinions. 99% of the people here before this are one of the same four things: libertarians, fascists, TERFs, and religious nuts. It gets boring in an echo-chamber, even if it's one I agree with, and it's not good intellectually; it stifles quality discussion. And there's just not enough people on this site in general either.

      Besides, Bernie Bros imo are usually honest people, only misguided. The rest of the DNC is all literal tankies who want to turn America into North Korea.

      libertarians, fascists, TERFs, and religious nuts

      What?

      I haven't seen a single religious nut. In fact people here like bashing on jews.

      By TERF you mean people at genderCritical and tumblrInAction? TERF is not an appropriate term for that, it's woketoid dog whistle for anyone that doesn't think trans women belong in women's sports. I also don't take "there's fascists here" seriously, anything is a fascist these days apparently.

      How do the people at /s/LGBDroptheT, one of the largest communities around here that has been active for a long time fit into one of these 4?

        I don't think anyone has the authority or knowledge or right to judge anyone else based on their beliefs.

        Just checking here... do they have the right to point out obvious internal contradictions in someone else's beliefs, when they see them?
        Not "judging" per se, but "you might want to look at this part a little more closely."

            There are a few religious nuts, and a few actual TERFs who hate men.

            There are actual fascists, check out /s/debatealtright. Fascists were really rare outside of Voat until about 3 years ago, when tankie rioters made everyone want to be one.

            /s/LGBDroptheT and /s/GenderCritical are controlled by TERFs. The reason I know this is because I and anyone who's male or empathizes with men in any way instantly gets banned. In practice only man-hating feminists are welcome.

            We are not all socialists, only some of us. Some of us are conservatives; some of us self-identify as left of Democrats, but not (yet?) socialist. (That is where I am.) Most of us are former "Bernie bros." All of us are not still Bernie bros.

            IOW, we're not a monolith.

            [–]3andfro 15 insightful - 2 fun15 insightful - 1 fun16 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

            I see why the sub's name can be confusing. To clarify: this is not a socialist sub. It's a nonpartisan sub that generally recognizes the uniparty and its owners as the barriers to better things for regular folks. Here, most see the fight as the 1% vs. the rest (top down), not Left vs. Right or D vs. R.

            For a better understanding of this contrary place, take a look at the sidebar. Many here tune Bernie out since he kissed the ring of his good friend addled Joe.

                  I think those turtles may be the ambrosia of the gods mentioned in mythology.

                  But just for the record, this was the inspiration for the nonsensical, apolitical turtle tax.

                    Statistically this isn't the case. Blacks have a much higher ratio of assholes and this is their genetic disposition, they display antisocial behaviors all over the world at hugely outsized rates and it isn't something they can even change. Jews are similar, though their IQs are much higher and their antisocial behaviors are more sophisticated. They also have a grudge against Europeans going back 2000 years.

                    If you have been living on the internet and haven't encountered the relevant statistics for black criminality and jewish hatred of Europeans then you should just leave and touch grass because you are uneducable.

                    But no specific link to specific statistics to support your specific claims. I guess I'll just take your word for it then.

                    note to self: Black... people... bad. Got it.

                    Race and religion are used to divide the lower classes and to divert from those who are the real problem, i.e., the oligarchs who run the wars, corrupt Congress and rob the Treasury.

                    But what if the oligarchs are overwhelmingly jewish?

                    I think this is a bot or someone trying to take down saidit, i have seeing this same post some where else. If you look at that guy history, it read like undercover FBI agent

                    Glowies abound. There are not enough actual right wing supremacists to justify the FBI, so they have to make do. But when Ukraine falls, they will just import those...

                    I dunno about that. When Ukraine falls the survivors are unlikely to be US friends. If they do come here it will be for revenge.

                    Just what the FBI needs.

                    It's a 4channer. Usually, they love the crude remarks to get an instant rush of adrenaline when they trigger someone over anything of substance. I remember doing this stuff back in the day, it just gets old fast.

                    crude remarks to get an instant rush of adrenaline when they trigger someone over anything of substance.

                    Here's the problem:

                    Can't afford pearls.
                    Therefore, I cannot clutch them.

                    Yeah, we'll get their crude tactics but they eventually hit a brick wall on discourse.

                    They may have heard

                    The solution to bad speech is not less speech, it's more and better speech

                    But they have yet to see what that actually entails when implemented.
