The discussion thread is for casual and off-topic conversation that doesn't merit its own submission. If you've got a good meme, article, or question, please post it outside the DT.


Obviously this is still sort of an experiment, but I figured why not keep trying it? I know the sub is technically open again, but I want to genuinely explore alternatives to Reddit.
Why not try and see if this catches on??
Btw, if you're a NL mod and want to be added here, reach out to me with proof and we'll get you sorted.

So are the mods on r\neoliberal just not even trying to remove all the disgustingly racist comments around the recent riots in France, then? People victim blaming a seventeen year old for being executed by the police are getting dozens or even hundreds of upvotes, for Christs' sake.

Honestly, I've been annoyed by the mods' inability or unwillingness to crack down on casual racism and sexism for a long time, but for a long time the pros outweighed the cons to me in terms of staying on the sub. And, to be blunt, there really weren't any good alternatives-- for years there, it was the only center-left forum left on reddit with any kind of activity.

Well, now there are. The subreddit mods should probably consider that, going forwards.

Victim blaming is one of the worst parts of reddit. It could literally be the most innocent person doing absolutely nothing wrong, and someone will come through and say "if the victim hadnt blah blah blah"

Its so gross.
