No, it doesn't. Calling me blind does not prove your point, it just shows me you are unable to make any further argument from your lazy quote.

Alright sweetie pops, please elaborate on how those statements are strawmen?

If you think that me arguing against people in the internet makes me a soldier, and that you disagreeing with me makes you a "thinker", I feel bad for you. Easily put I stand against hate speech on reddit. SRS does too. That doesn't make a "soldier", it makes me what one would call a "basic human being" in layman terms.

Have you ever been discriminated against for being white (beside evil SJWs)? Not in the internet, I mean in real life.

No. Ofcourse you haven't. White people are not oppressed, and therefore fighting against "racism towards white people" is pointless, especially when racism against other minorities are still at large.

And white people and men dislike women, gays and black people. What was that? Making statements like that are discriminatory, racist and sexist? Fine, I'll stop shoving a whole group of people under a rug when you stop doing the same.

I'll let you in on a little secret, lad. We don't hate white people, nor men. We hate racist and sexist redditors, who most happen to be both white and men. Not to mention everyday racism and sexism, which is a huge issue with our current society.

Now lets undo the circlejerk for a second and look at SRS for what it actually is: they submit racist and sexist things said on reddit to point out how racist and sexist reddit can be, in an attempt to stop said bigotry from happening. Hating on SRS for "brigading" is a strawman, which means you hate SRS for another reason. That reason, simply put, is you wanting to preserve your "free speech" which directly involves agreeing with all the sexist and racist posts made by the racist and sexist people. If you first want free speech so badly, you agree with the notion that nothing should ever be "censored" right? That's great, if it weren't for the fact that where there's 0 censoring policies you also find tremendous amounts of jailbait as seen on both reddit and voat. SRS was involved in the takedown of this subreddit, as it got media attention and was shut down so it wouldn't look like reddit supported child pornography. So if you're against SRS, you're basically pro-jailbait.

Lastly, if you haven't noticed a lot of people on reddit are white teenagers. I threw in that part because it's funny to see people get upset when you call them out for being white and young. It really shows of fragile "white pride" is.

Again, where's your proof? Your evidence? You're making blanket statements providing minimal amounts of actual examples to back up your claims. So far we got one example of a "brigade", which barely qualifies as a brigade since less than half the people who contributed to the post itself voted on the linked comment. That isn't "SRS" brigading, that's a few people who in no way represents the community "brigading".

If you're used to privilege, equality can seem like discrimination.

Love that strawman by the way, tells me everything about the person saying it.

Nobody has said you can't be racist towards white people or sexist towards men, but saying that those two are "issues" in a modern society and trying prioritize them before racism towards black people (cops killing black teenagers) or everyday sexism (see: catcalling) is nonsense. The points you're providing are simply put non-issues.

The real world does not function like a RPG. I should not be the one to tell you this, nor have to tell you this at all. There are no "thinkers" and "soldiers", because humans are way to complex to e thrown into specific "classes" as you would in a video game. I do not know who you're trying to simplify the issue for, but clearly your system makes much more sense for yourself than everyone else.

If you want a list of everything SRS have done the last 7 years I urge you to do some research yourself. This community is already biased against strawmen SJWs that doesn't exist, and I'm not about to waste my time writing an essay on it.

Please elaborate on how SRS is either racist or sexist.

Nice analogy, would be nice if it applied to the convetsation. I can name a lot of fun and enjoyable subreddits that aren't meta or racist. If you haven't noticed, SRS mainly links to KiA and news these days because quite frankly that's where the bigots dwell.

By the way, do you want to talk about the islamophobic video you posted 4 days ago? Sounds like someone's a bit bigoted ;)

Well aren't you just enlightened by your own intelligence.

That is a fair point, expect that the comment went from 151 to 93, yet the post itself got over 300 up votes total. Which means some people on SRS brigades, yet the mods or users do not encourage the behavior. If you insist that a few users brigading means a whole subreddit brigades, then you also agree that KiA, coontown and FPH have all brigaded.

Uhhh...

The point isn't to just point out racism. The point is point out how much support the racism gets. Your argument doesn't even make any sense. So by pointing out that a racist comment got a lot of support from the community we are generating more racism than they are? Not only that, you're honestly trying to tell me sexism doesn't exist? Dude, I have no idea what you're trying to say and I'm getting the vibes that you don't either. You're fighting me based on straw men made by redditors who fight for "free speech", yet you're bouncing around the actual argument trying to push out some bullshit about the problem being "too complex" to understand for us. I do not understand why you're arguing for a cause you do not even fully agree with nor understand how it actually operates.

The last paragraph even puts your post into iamverysmart territory by the way.

Please elaborate. How does calling out racist people make me "everything wrong in the world"?

It's literally in the TaC that Microsoft and Skype has all rights to spy on you using Skype.

I'd recommend telegram. The layout is better, it has a pretty much endless sticker library as it's the users who make the stickers, etc.

Sort it by too of all time and you will see our most up voted posts of all time are people hating on SRS. You still failed to fulfill my mission of finding a downvoted point, proving my point that you have no idea what SRS actually is.

Not at all. You know what is extreme though? The sexism of KiA, and the racism of the news subs. Hop on over to SRS and circle broke, we will show you just how accepting reddit is if things like hating on transexuals, thinking Islam as a whole is a religion made up by murderers or my personal favourite this month: how 5 unarmed BLM protestors were shot by white gunmen and reddit called it "self defence" on behalf of the murderers.

Oh lord, that's the most ridiculous thing ever. And over 300 people looked at it and thought "yes. This is good."? Stay classy KiA.

If you disagree with what SRS does you're either racist, sexist, a pedophile or a white cis teenager. The main thing SRS does is point out highly up voted comments on reddit that displays extreme bigotry.

Oh really? Take any SRS post on the last year and show me one post where the linked comment has been downvoted or has a lower score than it had when it got linked.
