View submission: Promote ideas, protect people

Based on your own data, 35% of the complaints from extremely dissatisfied users were about heavy handed moderation and censorship

What is being done about that?

"But the harassment conflicts with free speech because people are scared!"

If people are scared to post anonymous statements online there's little reddit can do about it. I'm sure they'll curb freedom of speech in the name of protecting people, though.

Reddit admins, you have no right to ever complain about cyber espionage bills again. You're just as bad as Congress is when it comes to saying one thing and then infringing on rights in another. You do not lead by example. You cowards.

Werent you paying attention? Its more censorship.

If you censor the complaints about censorship you achieve 100% compliance.

They don't want those users. They want to make their audience as big as possible because that will increase profits. Its not about creating a safe space. Its about creating the biggest space where our corporate owners get the most use of the money they spent.

Absolutely nothing. This reminds me of that /r/redditgetsdrawn mod that reached /r/all a while ago for being a powertripping SJW mod:

Easy: the natural order of things is being done about that.

Reddit, like any other website (or entity for that matter) has a creation, a rise, a peak and a fall. Now we're at the peak. In five years reddit will be a ghost town.

My guess? Being disregarded as moderators have autonomy over their subreddits. People are always gonna whine when they break rules and get caught.

She is a leftist. History has shown us that the leftist ideology gains consensus via force (i.e. elimination of non-believers via murder and/or censorship). It shouldn't be too hard to figure out what is going to happen here. This has nothing to do with harassment and everything to do with promoting an ideology. This decade has ushered in the dawn of the New Fascists under the name Progressive.

I don't think these women care too much about that.

Those who responded to the extremely dissatisfied question were a much smaller set (on the scale of 100) relative to the larger set of dislikes (scale of 10k).

When you look at the larger of volume of comments about what people disliked, the community was by far the top concern. The "heavy handed moderation and censorship" shows up for only 10% of the overall reddit population.

1. Create your own sub

2. If sub is not allowed on reddit, go to another site

3. Kill yourself if you're into one of the like 3 things reddit bans
