This has to be one of the least self aware rebuttals to a warning about site content policy I've ever seen on here
In case anyone needed receipts for my decision on site banning a long time user.
I don't take any joy in it. It's not pleasant. But neither is 10 sitewide ignored content policy violations.
Everyone's feed should start being noticeably better (including new users landing on the site page for the first time) and less contentious.
Fair point well made, Durek. Fair point well made.

@Vermillion-Rx What if I'm a nazi mainly because I like roads? None of the Jew stuff, none of the invading Poland stuff. Just build more roads. Would it still be wrong to post a swastika?
"Nazism with a human face". You know, like the Czechoslovaks did with communism.

Are we doing the progressive reddit-think thing where hating white people isn't racist though?
As a person of a rather pasty persuasion myself, there's a part of me that wants to embrace that line of thinking ("no such thing as racism towards white people"). Because, really, it comes from a place of viewing white people as superior.
In the mind of your average Redditor, racism is an act of "punching downwards" in the racial hierarchy. Hence, members of a....(God, how am I going to put this?)..."race of higher order" can't be subjected to racism by members of a..."race of lower order". Because that would be "punching upwards".
I know this all sounds very racist in and of itself, in a white supremacy sort of way. But seriously, this is the thought pattern that the so called anti-racists and wokesies actually subscribe to.
And so, why should I - as a white person - object to someone essentially placing me at the top of the racial hierarchy, without me even having to ask for it, or demand it? I mean, racial superiority seems pretty awesome, doesn't it?
So yeah, I'm actually going to chime along on this one, and say: "It's not the same thing, stupid!"
Read MoreAlthough wider discussions are allowed, and happen casually, the red pill started and is still centered around sexual strategy. There's a common core of agreement on that. There is no consensus for a whole lot of other things, neither a requirement to reach any. It's not a place to let off steam about other issues.
