    CTH was shut down for brigading and abuse though. It wasn’t all that different from T_D albeit a better class of troll

      Yeah you keep telling yourself that horseshit, just ignore the fact the admins flatly said we were banned for “inciting violence” in the form of “KIll all slaveowners”

      Also “brigading” that’s an interesting word, is that what you’re doing right now?

        No because brigading is encouraging a subset of a website to raid something else. A single person cannot be brigading anything as a single person isn’t a brigade.

            That would also not be brigading but if you are crossposting with say /r/conservative in order to draw people to fight there that would be brigading.

            Before ShermanPosting became a place that just shat on the south brigading was a problem.

        Yes because only nazis oppose a system that does not achieve much other than mass murder leading to authoritarianism.

          Yes because only nazis oppose a system that does not achieve much other than mass murder leading to authoritarianism.

          The British and American empires also led the anti-communist crusade. You’ll note the massive stacks of bodies and constant installation of puppet governments each one is responsible for.

          If you think the Soviets weren’t less mass murder-y by a magnitude less than capitalist or monarchist governments you need to learn more about the constant stream of violence that capitalism produces. Even the massively exaggerated death counts of all socialist countries put together by anticommunists pale in comparison to just the British empire.

          Also revolutions are the most authoritarian thing in existence. It is literally one class exercising control through physical violence and coercion against the class that has been socially murdering them and oppressing them until they collectively couldn’t take it anymore and were organized enough to fight back.

        “Remember the human. Reddit is a place for creating community and belonging, not for attacking marginalized or vulnerable groups of people. Everyone has a right to use Reddit free of harassment, bullying, and threats of violence. Communities and people that incite violence or that promote hate based on identity or vulnerability will be banned.”

        That’s Spez’s quote on the reason for CTH being banned. Looks like it was for all the threats of violence and harassment, which I absolutely regularly saw from CTH posters, and it had nothing to do with hatespeech.
