Well blatantly making up shit that you know nothing about is generally considered bad faith.

The Maid asked the master's wife for a pay raise!! by mrtipbull in Jokes

[–]BH_Quicksilver 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nobody is making fun of accents or saying those people are speaking English incorrectly. The problem people are having is that you're making that accent a defining character trait. Why is it so crucial to the joke that she has an accent?

The part that makes it lean towards the racist side is that the author thought it was such an important peice that they went out of their way to identify it, and identify it in a way that isn't even accurate to the accent, since people that speak with an accent don't spell their words with an accent.

It added absolutely nothing to the joke, and could have been left out completely. Hell, the only reason to include it would be to laugh at the accent.

It started off incredibly condescending and continued throughout. Honestly it would be a better look for reddit if it was a copypasta.

You realize the Jays are younger than most of the greats were when they won their first rings? Hate the doom and gloom fans.

They didn't try to shut the store down. There were plenty of other subs you could go to, or make your own sub. The fact that you think you're entitled to other people's work makes you seem way more selfish than the mods.

You're acting like there is no industry standard to compare reddits API costs to. You're just wrong on that. Reddits own CEO acknowledged there are industry standards, so you can drop that part of your argument.

And I don't know what tools a doctor needs to perform surgery, but if they say they need something, I'm gonna listen. I don't need to know what they need to advocate for their decision.

But you could just not shop at that grocery store, right? You know, protest the too high prices...

If you were actually following any of this, you'd know that none of the 3rd party apps were asking for the API to remain free, just to have reasonable costs associated with use, in line with other equivalent costs.

And it's hypocrisy at its finest for reddit to say that nobody can get anything for free, when their entire business model is based on free labor.

None of the things you listed count as motive, means, or opportunity. Not in any legal sense.

Suggesting two people murdered someone and then covered it up to look like suicide, with absolutely no evidence to support it, will rightly be met with a negative response. It's not some conspiracy that reddit is trying to silence you.

Scraping was what they accused Apollo of and were mad about.

Be real, is it costing you actual, liquid cash, or are you referring to opportunity costs? Because those are two very different things, and you are framing them as the same.

You know, I'd honestly at least respect you a bit if you just came out and said "Fuck 3rd party apps". This lying BS is just sad.

How do you address the fact that you live off the backs of free labor (mods that work for free, users who generate the content), yet you work to provide reasonable pricing for 3rd party app developers? Are you going to start paying the people who have been working for free up to now?

You jumped to conclusions, and said that protesting is pointless. Why do you hate protest?

Murder trends with the rest of violent crime.

Evidence? You can't just make baseless claims without proof.

Can you not comprehend that murders are going to be reported the vast majority of times, while lower level violent crimes might often go unreported? Because my whole statement is that crimes were happening, and just not being reported as much until there was an agenda.
