16 years ago, that was Reddit for me.
Guess we’ll see.
Looks like I confused this comm with the politics comm, but considering this comm is following the decision of that one a week later, I think the reasoning stands:
Of course it isn’t. Your goal is to stifle criticism of Biden from the left.
We know this started because a (presumably, leftist) user stated they only care to share negative content of Biden and were banned.
How is one individual possibly manipulating the community if we’re all reading it, agreeing, and upvoting?
Just shelve the paternalism and focus on spam and other areas of rightful moderation.
If the articles are news, they’re news. End of.
Let’s not pretend like this comm isn’t overrun with accounts that (rightfully) post articles that are only critical of conservative policies and politicians. Are you going to ban them for not also posting critical of liberals? Must they criticize leftists?
This will be entirely used in a one sided way to censor criticism of Biden. I think that’s obvious.
You mean someone with a 2 year old account? You know what instances existed 2 years ago?
Reddit 2.0. Always has been.
Unfortunately the author has a few paragraphs that miss the mark and strike me as coming from more of a centrist or right-wing “kids these days are too soft” which feels very off-base and disconnected from the issue.
Welcome to The Atlantic. It’s telling they think all these issues are because of phones and not other aspects of society or something like the looming, ever present threat of climate change.
It’s basically The Economist lite at this point.
It’s sad that this type of comment can be and is often spun as “antisemitism”
To believe this is uncommon sentiment would be naive

People that act like the media landscape was better or people more informed overall when everyone got their news from the same big 3-4 networks and 2-3 newspapers BLOW MY FUCKING MIND. Like, please read Manufacturing Consent once.
This take that things only got “political” when conservative talk radio got popular…I honestly can’t.
they’re just not representative of the general population.
Good. If I wanted the general population, I’d scroll Facebook
centrists understand the issues but don’t think an extreme left/right solution is the answer
Think they do but typically show their ass as being completely ignorant of leftist politics.
but elements from both sides should be considered.
Rarely, and typically more so the right.
"I don’t like Reddit.
Its interface is ugly as sin. There are fewer users there and they’re all pretentious, extremely liberal, and anti American."

Yeah there was a little bit of that in the original WW2 games: CoD 1-3 and the expansion games and console exclusives.
The conditions that allow someone like Trump to come to power are manifested by the neoliberal policies extolled by the Democrat and Republican establishment, alike. Your party leaders are Reaganites/Thatcherites. The biggest policy win for Democrats in recent history was a Heritage Foundation plan that acts as a de facto subsidy to private health insurance.
And most people do not live in swing states so most “protest votes” do nothing to tip the scales.
creating more division within the left
Liberalism isn’t the left.
create more Republicans in the process
Create more leftists, actually.
ivory tower orthodoxy
It’s the Democratic establishment that abhors populism and typically walks in ivory tower circles. Liberalism and neoliberalism are the dominant ideologies in the Ivy League schools, not socialism.
Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy
Now, it’s kind of the point. But I don’t know if it was my mouse or what but I found the controls to be too poorly implemented with how difficult of a game it already is. Sometimes, the hammer would basically glitch out or would apply way more pressure relative to my movements and fling me back down to the button. It served as an element of frustration that I think goes against the design goals. I’ve seen speed runs that make me think it could have been my hardware, but I’ll never know. Actually, remembering, I think I switched to a different mouse eventually that was better but still not great.
I also just didn’t really ever buy into the premise. I know it’s an ode to B games, but the piling of random assets is not what I would consider good design even if they serve the purpose of what the game is going for. There are plenty of difficult video games that are about perseverance but still put in the effort in level design, mechanics, controls, etc.
Tbh, I found it an interesting enough experiment with failed execution. I don’t understand people who hold it up as one of the better “art” games in the medium.
Only in swing states.
Most states you know exactly what the outcome is going to be, no matter how hard you or they campaign.
We understand FPTP and the electoral college.
