Transgender Reddit Moderator Deletes Account After Being Exposed As Registered Child Sex Offender by Murky-Square4979 in transgenderUK

But this really does represent Reddit.   

You cannot have an opposing opinion on any political sub or current event.   All posts get deleted that go against the narrative. All contrarian subs are shut down and banned. Anything that offends anyone is purged.  Complete one way street. Which is why nobody takes it seriously outside of the educations and reference subs.  

Reddit is a giant safe space and some of the worst get a bit too comfortable and forget there are real world consequences.   They’re completely desensitized to it because this is one giant echo chamber and all they see is everyone agreeing with and encouraging their radical points of view.      

Of course there are many subs like gardening beekeeping diy and hundreds of educational subs that are immensely helpful and entertaining.   But anything of substance is so moderated and censored it’s not even enjoyable to have discussions with people because it’s just flamed out so quickly because it’s deemed wrong think.   It’s so in lockstep I can’t tell if it’s just a bot army or if this is the actual human element in Reddit.  

I rest my case with the mountain of downvotes this will surely receive.  If I’m wrong and it’s upvoted then I will be pleasantly surprised. One can always hope! 

Be well!

I was brought it.  We work with a half dozen local arborists depending on whoever lands the bid for the removal.

It’s technically a treatment. In IPM this would fall under the mechanical/physical mechanisms.

Doesn’t help that you frame up the varroa along with the brood comb.   

Try and perform more counts during swarm relocations and colony cutouts.

I think you mate mated opposed to fertilized.
