I have been on reddit for just about 12 years now. Something I’ve noticed over time is just how hateful the place has become. A complete outrage machine. Every single sub became filled with it. I’ve filtered so many subreddits over the last few years, it’s insane. I don’t know enough about this place to be sure, but I do hope it doesn’t become the same type of echo chamber of anger.

      Really the debate is for the fence sitters. You can’t convince a fascist but you can convince someone entertaining fascism.

      Forcibly suppressing ideas doesn’t have a great track record historically, unfortunately. No easy way to prevent fascist ideas from spreading in open societies. Look at the massive Nazi rallies in NYC right before WW2
