The incels rejoiced that day, because at the very least they got fucked by Reddit.

The Incels are easily startled, but they'll soon be back....and in greater numbers.

Yeah, that's kind of the problem. You squash a bad community, the members (now homeless and pissed off) swarm better and cleaner communities and now the moderators have to ban them all (which takes time).

The decent acid-y house that was playing when I got here has given way to ambient experimental stuff with spooky vocalizations.
I don't go to raves to be challenged artistically, I go to raves to be pummeled with beats... this DJ would fit better at a metal gig.

Ooh, experimental ambient. Why does Australia get the good DJ?

What confuses me here is thst I read a report regarding reddit and moderation saying that even when the members move to another reddit, if the reddit isn't as much of an echo chamber, they adjust their behavior, hiding their most objdctional bs.

Just the law of how crowds work. Socialists won't push you out for not being socialists, however identity politics people will push you out for not supporting their identity politics. The regular push and pull of discourse then changes where the fault lines lie. Socialist vs non-Socialist just isn't a fault-line that's being policed, so it becomes irrelevant compared to those hot-button topics.
Tolerance of intolerance leads to the death of tolerance.
Intolerance of intolerance leads to the death of tolerance too; Socrates says therefore, tolerance cannot withstand challenge, and is the lubrication which slides the dildo of dysfunction into the waiting arse of society, replacing democracy with tyranny to kill oligarchy

It's rather a catch 20/20, where if the identity politics-minded remain keen to excluding all who do not ascribe to this worldview, the only mediums which survive such treatment are those which are either unnoticed by idpol, or are intolerant to it entirely. It's an endless cycle of intolerants intoleranting intolerants, much easier to just keep everyone in a state of civility talking about whether plump helmet wine is in fact, a good idea

You know, I really hoped she had set herself straight this time and that she wouldn't do drugs anymore.

Quote
The consensus is that she saw a Syrian refugee fam on the street, tried to convince the mom to give her the boys so they could watch movies at a hotel, then agreed the mom could come but not the dad, then when they decided to move to get away, she said they were trafficking.

Huh, ok, so she's apparently done the "great white savior" thing, but thrown a bit of #meToo in there by apparently trying to split the father up from the family according to some people? Heaven forbid that the father is actually a loving father who fought to protect his family and get them away from a warzone. Forget that, the father is bad on account of being male, and here comes rich white lady to protect the mother and children from him!

EDIT: how many drugs was she on, i want to know. She sounds out of it in the videos.

I don't think you get to say this. I see no evidence she accused anyone of rape.

Associating the #MeToo movement with hilariously inept youtube kidnapping is a bit of a leap. Possibly a rather crass one.

Aye, that's a tenuous connection at best.
