The thing is, this administration was going to do it anyway. It’s not like the mass firings just started… They just have a new excuse.

The red flag point doesn’t fit with the rest. Saying red flag isn’t allowed is like saying constitutional right can’t be restricted. It’s a tough one only because of the second amendment making baring arms a right, not just a privilege. If you ignore that, I fully support the idea of the red flag laws.

This was my thought as well. Seems like a very thinly veiled antisemitic thing to say.

Looming? It’s already happening. National Guards have invaded blue cities.

Finally.

Oh, if you’re saying banning things are a slippery slope, I agree. Plus I would rather let Nazis be Nazis so I can know who my enemy is.

Nah, there is a big difference between face sitting and fetishizing genocide.

I’ve looked up some weird porn, but I’ve never thought to look for Nazi themed porn.

Correct. That’s why successful boycotts usually only happen because the company was already in decline. I would argue that the Disney/ABC situation was that.

I can’t find the source. I’m recalling a recent episode of TBOY podcast that talked about this. They cite their sources, but I’m not sure which episode it was. So, yeah without actual sources feel free to ignore what I said.

Sorry, the vast majority fail.

The majority of investors now are “retail investors”. Just regular people on apps like Robinhood. These people are investing in memes or making political statements.

Boycotts don’t work.

You keep trying to throw out all the data because some is bad. I don’t think these companies would be paying that much for all bad data. You seem to really want to justify some bias you have. It’s really weird.

At this point we’re just speculating. We don’t have evidence either way of its mostly good or mostly bad data.

No, I’m not. I don’t care at all if they’re successful or go under.

Sure, but again it’s not likely to be most. You don’t seem to realize how hard it is to get data that is already classified. That stuff is gold to people developing AI. Most of the work in data science is cleaning data and getting it into a usable form.

Okay, but it is those niche subs that are the most valuable.

Of course there are. That doesn’t mean the majority of the site is compromised.

No, it’s value is that users have up voted and down voted good and bad data. This gives the AI training data that has been crowd sourced by humans. Bots manipulating votes would destroy the value of Reddit.

Yeah, that’s obviously what he’s doing. So, clearly it isn’t worth it to him, why should it be worth it to us?
