http://www.reddit.com/showthread.php?t=709963&page=2

This is all happening over on M. K., which is always a mess.

Since there’s zero actual moderation there—and honestly, the mods are basically joining in on the trolling and mocking—I figured I’d have to bring this up here instead.

It is totally wrong to label gay people as "sick" or to bring up places like Small Town, USA in that kind of context. It's disgusting.

The whole vibe of the discussion makes it sound like they're talking about mutants.

It’s just not okay. Even if this was happening in M. K., where the tolerance for spam is through the roof and nobody keeps things in check, I’m seriously appealing to have that thread closed or removed entirely. Anyone with half a brain can see how messed up it is.

Thanks for listening.

Laughter... I still remember poking fun at you back during that big convention when I argued that we don't even need to worry about the "hunters"—they just end up canceling each other out while driving up the population of single women. Though, I did mention that those female hunters really ought to be penalized for keeping our guys' "warm locks" away from their natural desires...

😳

Anyway, if I recall correctly, you absolutely lost your mind over that one...

😳

Seriously though, lady, why on earth are you even snooping around M. K.'s profile?

😳

It’s honestly ridiculous—it's like if I went to J. K.'s site and then turned around to complain to some random auntie on a gossip blog about how the women there are supposedly bad at flying kites...

😳

That is a completely different issue.

This is a violation of human rights.

P.S. And who are you to tell me where I should hang out on this site? For your information, I avoid that trashy corner of Reddit because I don't want to waste my time on nonsense. But if you click "new posts," everything shows up regardless of the category, and wouldn't you know it—you actually opened a thread just to mock us.

I saw on Facebook that Reddit is being branded as a homophobic gathering spot for hicks. If Anderlon wants that kind of publicity just to protect one shameless little corner, be my guest! Honestly, go ahead and open even more threads about gay topics just so you can spit on us. It’s easy enough to go from Facebook straight to the local news...

That's all.

P.S. Also, putting smileys on a new line gets you penalized here. And how could you possibly have an opinion with only 12 posts? 🙂 At least we know you're a bot.

What on earth are you talking about?

😳

I don't even bother posting over on M. K.'s page—honestly, that corner of Reddit is just pure small-town nonsense to me 😳—but I'll tell you this much: if you can't stand the vibe there, don't go. It's really that simple.

😳

Besides, it’s exactly that kind of constant bickering and petty, passive-aggressive sniping that pushed the loaders to where they are now—basically making people want to roll their eyes and walk the other direction the second they show up.

😳

I don't care what you think. You're just being insulting without actually making a point, and clearly, you have no idea how to use an emoji...

Waiting on a moderator to step in.

Aaron Booth2 said:I don't even bother posting in that M. K. section—honestly, I think it’s the most provincial part of the whole Reddit 😳—but I'm telling you, if you don't like it, you just shouldn't go there.

Then why on earth aren't they opening up PDFs for all these other little outcasts who are constantly posting over on the legal board? Just let people write on their own damn PDF, and anyone who finds it annoying can simply be told to stay away from where they don't feel welcome.

It isn't a trivial matter: if a massive uproar ever breaks out regarding some cleverly worded thread, it won't matter one bit which specific corner of Reddit it started in—it will become a scandal for Reddit itself.

I'm not just talking here: there have already been instances where threads were being deleted with extreme haste following certain legal hints. : pauletić :

Nicholas King,

Wait, what exactly is this FBI sub-forum? 🤔
🙂

Okay, I'm being totally dense here—I'm not trolling, I swear, I just have no clue what that term even means.

The CIA stuff is actually pretty useful, though.

It’s basically the corner for the banned users.
The CIA is useful.

That is... an unusual—and frankly, completely incorrect—choice of words.

I mean, what kind of usefulness could you possibly get from the CIA?

But calling an entire neighborhood a cesspool? That seems totally fine, right? 🙏 🙏

The neighborhood isn't being called a dump, it's just being honest. 🙂.
When someone brings up Brooklyn, they aren't just talking about the area—they're talking about the local asylum. 😬.

But that’s exactly where you’re getting it wrong. That facility people talk about is actually over in Queens. This place in Brooklyn is totally fine—and honestly, speaking as someone who lives here, the real wild characters are out on the streets, not inside the building. 😁

The tone of this entire discussion feels less like a civil debate and more like people arguing over the existence of mutants.

fadedmason6 said:T

I tend to steer clear of that particular corner of Reddit; I simply have no desire to waste my time on such utter nonsense.

I saw a post on Facebook claiming that Reddit has become nothing more than a homophobic gathering place for uncultured hillbillies.

fadedmason6 said:To the moderators and admins: honestly, you should be embarrassed.

It’s actually quite fascinating—the sheer volume of insults being hurled within such a tiny, confined space. And yet, somehow, you seem completely oblivious to it.

Try to step into my shoes for a moment.

It’s wrong to label homosexuals as sick and drag places like Brooklyn psychiatric wards into this conversation.

The tone of this debate makes it sound like we're talking about mutants.

Thanks for reading.

I don't get it.

Someone wrote that homophobes should be locked up in Brooklyn psych wards. Is that off-limits now?

Moderators, please address this insult... I'm not a hillbilly, I'm an agroseksual.

Nicholas King said:That's a weird choice—and honestly, just plain wrong.

What's even the point of the CIA?

And what about this Reddit page?! Seriously, what’s the value of those 16 million tips you drop every year or two on basically everything except maybe how shy ears can be productive enough to keep the folks at Pfizer getting their steady paychecks?

Maybe some admin will finally notice how "brilliant" you are and hand you a moderator gig. Just as long as it isn't here at the CIA, for God's sake.

Man, it's funny how people from those tiny fringe groups always end up whining about being bullied or insulted by the majority. Even though calling someone a total moron doesn't count as an insult coming from them. At least, not in my book.

Kevin Wood15 said:What's the point of your 16 million pieces of advice?

In a word: none.

The thing is—and I say this with some hesitation—your attempt at an analogy was a bit of a stretch. My question regarding whether the wit of the CIA is actually useful was a direct response to the claim that "the CIA is useful." Your little retort, however, was a reaction to absolutely nothing; I have never once considered my own posts to be anything more or less than "useful"—that's just not how I operate.

Better luck next time ☕.

Edit: one thing remains completely unclear to me: you clearly seem to be intimately familiar with my Reddit handle and my history here—yet I haven't the slightest clue who you are (at least in this current incarnation). When someone gets under my skin this much, I tend to just hit the ignore button. If it helps, I'd be more than happy to send you a screenshot showing you exactly how to do that.

Since my previous post has reached its limit, I will simply add this: if those who identify as gay believe their lifestyle is acceptable—and they are certainly granted the platform to express such views—
then it follows that we must also provide space for those who maintain that being gay is not okay. 🙂

I would appreciate it if someone could provide a link to the specific Facebook post where that was stated.

Look, I guess most moderators have actual jobs in the real world—they’re probably out there hustling on the side just to cover their bills or pick up some snacks... so sometimes nobody's around, and honestly, a forum that "runs so smoothly" doesn't exactly scream "aggressive moderation"... —I'll keep an eye on things, old school style!

People poked fun at everyone—from the local celebrities and Princess Diana to Chuck Norris, Shrek, and various politicians—even the straight crowd got teased, so I don't really see why the gay community should be any different
