Are most ignoring the numerous examples of Reddit subs users inferred “likely won’t be a big deal” becoming obviously problematic down the line, with the inevitable ban/quarantine occuring with most upset it wasn’t dealt with from the start?
You’ve just explained how Reddit became an echo chamber which is the same road lemmy.world is taking.
we don’t know that denuvo ACTUALLY impacts sale numbers by convincing those mean old pirates to buy their game
But we do know it improves sales, that’s why every game publisher that can afford it is using it. They have years of data to prove it. What do you have?
Have you ever used cheats on single player games when that was still a thing developers put in games? I did, it was fun. That’s why.
I remember a similar case regarding Windows shipping with IE. Whatever happened with that?
You can do that now with a heat gun and some very basic tools.
A heat gun is a specialized tool. That’s the problem.
Go back to reddit, you’re not welcome here.
No. You already sound like a reddit powermod.
which yes, this does in fact make you a transphobe
Thanks, you just proved my point.
But I wasn’t even talking about women’s sports, I was referring to how there are people literally referring to minorities as subhuman and calling for them to be wiped out. Is that not hate enough for you?
Yes, I would consider referring to minorities as subhuman as hate speech. My point is how easily some people throw the phrase ‘hate speech’ to validate their own views and silence debate.
For someone so concerned that your arguments might be mischaracterized, you sure are quick to make sweeping assumptions about people you don’t know.
99% of the people in here are Reddit users, I know those very well. I created my Reddit account 13 years ago when it was a thriving site where you could have discussions just about any topic, instead of the echo chamber that it is today. That’s why I will continue to call them out here, until eventually they take over like they did over Reddit and all dissenting opinions are banned.
Do you have a single example to back this up or are you ready to admit you’re just talking out of your ass?
I do. Discussing whether trans women should be allowed to compete in women sports will get you branded as a transphobic right wing nazi in 99% of Reddit’s subs, and probably banned too. Once you are labeled your arguments are moot, because you are a hater.
What’s with people pretending we are talking about pineapple on pizza whenever hate speech is mentioned?
Because some people (and reddit users in particular) use the strategy of putting everything in the same bag to silence dissent. All it takes is the majority calling ‘pineapple on pizza’ hate speech and now nobody can talk about it in fear of being called a hater.
Anything I don’t like = hate speech. Got it.
Reddit is an echo chamber. Being banned there is not indicative of anything.
