I wonder, will it be actual shitposting or will it just be them dropping the mask and calling that shitposting
It’s gonna be this. You will see the most racist and hideous stuff. And when called out „muh free speech“.
Like the goblins of Moria.
I guess that makes spez the balrog...or maybe the cave troll.
I mean, I kind of appreciate the fact that the mods decided to do this, because they know very well how this'll turn out. Letting such a rancid community out of leash while many of the wholesome communities are on a break is going to be a shitshow worth remembering, and just the kinda stuff that's going to drop Reddit stock in the eyes of advertisers.
With corporate, appealing to morals or ethical conduct is usually pointless. Hitting their potential evaluation though...
Exactly. When this shitstorm gatherers enough strength someone will report about it. Since the jailbait debacle we know that Reddit doesn’t give a shit what happens on its site. They care when important sources from the outside talk about it.
it's definitely gonna be some schrödinger's asshole type stuff
Yes
