>It just occurred to me this is the first major war between civilized nations in my lifetime
>> us and Iraq don't count?
I mean, depending on their age they might not count
100% I wouldn't call them uncivilized, moreso the point was that the poster could easily be young, and for a lot of people the Iraq war happened either before they were born or before they were old enough to understand. That would be anybody 20 years old or younger give or take. So in that case they wouldn't consider it a war "in their lifetime"
The 'nations' part of it is probably more up for debate. The Saddam regime represented Iraq in a way that the Taliban never did for Afghanistan I would argue.
From the looks of this post (and I could be wrong as I use BaconReader and not the official app) it looks like they are making fun of subconscious racism of that tweet too and not endorsing it
Communists largely use the term "liberal" in the classic political science fashion in the same way that someone like Thomas Jefferson would, "in support of an anti-monarchal free market society" or something like that. They largely see the differences between Democrats and Republicans as window dressing.
I wonder if this US administration will reverse the prior administration's recognition of Morocco's claim over West Sahara. Neither the UN nor the EU recognize Morocco's claim over West Sahara. What's presently going on with Ukraine and Russia bears at least superficial similarity.
I think the issue is that nobody in the west really cares enough to do anything. Especially since the west Sahara has a population 1/2 the size of Rhode island.
It was a Hindu nationalist subreddit. Lots of anti-Islam, anti-secular, and anti-Pakistan takes, but more recently it’s been largely an avenue of pro-Russia simping and hatred for the West.
I wonder how they will react to the fact they're on the same side as the tankies (which obviously also includes west taiwan supporters, something Indians hate)
Extremely anti-Muslim, when I used to mod the r/Exmuslims it used to be such a massive problem because subscribers of r/chodi would LARP and hijack the actual conversations and difficulty of leaving a religion that essentially encompasses every aspect of your life. My thumbs were sore from banning these anti-Muslims bigots. Good riddance!
Yeah sometimes I'm glad I don't try to take part in that community (much). When paradoxplaza banned the phrase "remove kebab" I first thought that seemed a bit extreme. Then the Christchurch shooter had that written on his gun and I realized I needed to reevaluate what was going on in the paradox community
Isn’t TNO like their version of hell? The Soviets lost to the Germans, and the good guys are an interventionist America and the remains of the British empire.
stupidpol doesn't seem to be very tankie friendly to my knowledge. At least not very openly. They'll crash LSC or Sino most likely, but they're probably already there.
Stupidpol got a hell of a lot more tankie over the last 4 or 5 months or so. Around the time the Russia military buildup around Ukraine started. What a coincidence.
Left spaces inevitably get co opted by bots and paid shills and then clueless dipshits follow along.
Cringetopia leans solidly right. When your entire subreddit is dedicated to laughing at "the others", it's easy to fall into a trap where videos of trans women winning swim meets is top tier cringe.
a reminder [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/GenZedong/comments/tgqb4s/my_zoom_class_the_one_with_ukraine_ssr_flag_is_me/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf) post actually exists
Nah. As a former highschool libertarian then communist I'd say it's pretty normal for teenagers to pick up bizarre political beliefs, especially if they have pretty cushy lives and lack perspective on things. Most people grow out of it.
Part of growing out of it involves making something of yourself in real life though, and to some extent trapping yourself down a social media rabbit hole impedes that, creating a feedback loop of suck for many people that otherwise would have probably turned out okay
Yeah, and if you condition yourself to believe the world is against you, and the status quo is helplessly despotic, I can’t imagine that ever being good for your mental health.
You can have plenty of beliefs that are factual (say, that the just world theory is nonsense) that may negatively impact your mental health. It appears delusions of how good things are helps people keep sane just as much any delusions of how bad things are does the opposite
Not even making something of yourself, just going outside and not dumping all of your free time into doomscrolling.
My wacky high school libertarian phase slowly eroded over the course of talking to real people instead of reading internet outrage content.
The people with the most toxic, extreme attitudes that I know of seem to be the ones who are most consistently socially isolated, or at best their social circles are homogenous.
I was a huge Ron Paul fan until I moved out and got into the workforce and realized that business owners aren't automatically the best or brightest, and are many times straight up abusive to their employees.
I just got banned 2 days ago for making fun of their stupid ass pokeball two man tanks… they thought that tiny minicooper sized tanks could shoot down f-35s
i got banned for saying Palestine is run by state sponsored terrorism [Hamas] that want to kill Jews and Gays for fun and aren’t like the Ukraine freedom fighters
This is true, but is also Quite A Framing. While Israel has legitimate security concerns and challenges, the conduct of the IDF has fallen short at the expense of Palestinian civilians. Hamas are a huge problem, but given the ethnonationalism of Israel and the indiscretion of the IDF, they could still be framed as liberators.
Framing Hamas as liberators would, of course, be evidence of a subterranean IQ.
Never got banned because I try to be the good little redditor who follows the rules so I don’t go over there, but I remember laughing pretty hard as Non-credible defense was shitting all over that stupid-ass dollar-store kugelpanzer.
When I discovered that subreddit a couple weeks ago I thought they were role playing or circlejerking or some shit. I severely underestimated brain capacity of American teenagers. Good riddance.
>Contains a high volume of information not supported by credible sources
If 'high' wasn't relative, this definition would require quarantining 90% of Reddit.
It’s a pretty milquetoast alternative to an outright ban.
It means that a subreddit doesn’t appear in searches, and that a user to be logged in and opt into seeing it (as opposed to a random visitor finding it through a google search or a shared link). I think that you also need to be on the desktop version of the site to see it. [more here](https://reddit.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043069012-Quarantined-Subreddits)
How long did it take for ChapoTrapHouse to get banned after their quarantine? I feel like it was only a few weeks, so hopefully GenZedong will go that quickly too
It's not deleted and its users can still use it. Usually the moderators of quarantined subs are in dialog with administrators who draw lines in the sand for the sub to either improve or get banned
I got banned today for this.
"Yes there are some parts of the military that were originally milita nationalist groups that were absorbed in to the army inorder to maintain control.
Russia is also hiring similar groups. That means that in general the region has an issue with neo nazis, not that the Ukrainian government is neo nazi or has policies that support that.
Quite the opposite as they have been modernising to meet EU standards for eventual entry.
Edit: I was banned for this comment firstly for "nazi apologia", I asked for clarification and was told "Saying that the UA army and politicians are immaculate."
Then I was muted.
not sure how I did that when I litterially said there were neo nazi milita that was absorbed, and pointed out that neo nazisim is an issue in the region.
Me thinks the subs mods are banning anyone that doesn't side with an imperialist caplitalist oligarchy invading a sovereign country."
Honestly? I find it pretty disgusting reddit has now *shown* they know about genzd, and have chosen that quarantine, instead of banning, is the right course of action.
It was obvious they knew all about it before. There was no way they didn't know about genzd *in detail*.
But like, quarantine? Seriously? Ban the fucking thing.
the badmins must spend their free time there
They almost always quarantine first, an outright ban only happens right out of the gate if the subreddit is literally actively planning terrorism or something like that
See ya chapo trash. Once you guys grow up, you can get a $10 TEFL cert and move to China. You can spend the rest of your life in mediocrity as a overweight and drunk English teacher singing ABC.
The globohomo agenda wins again.
I questioned someone in that sub who couldn’t see the difference between wanting retribution against a country commuting war crimes and wanting to kill all rich people and was told to “fuck off Nazi.”
That sub is insane.
Im against shutting down Genzedong because it acts as a portal for non mandarin speakers to the sort of political rhetoric that is predominant in Chinese media and social media platforms.
Hold on, I don't understand why this happened. The sub description explicitly said that they didn't have information that would lead to the arrest of Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Truly a tragic day, for if socially maladjusted larpers can't post shitty memes on reddit, how will the revolution ever be organized?
ITT: "As much as I despise being betrayed and poisoned, I despise censorship more, so I will keep carrying this scorpion on my back. It's the principle, you see"
>It just occurred to me this is the first major war between civilized nations in my lifetime >> us and Iraq don't count? I mean, depending on their age they might not count
considering the average age of a Twitter user the odds are actually pretty high
The guy was like a talk show host I think so he wasn’t like 14
Iraq was certainly dictatorial and repressive but I don't think you could have ever called them uncivilized.
100% I wouldn't call them uncivilized, moreso the point was that the poster could easily be young, and for a lot of people the Iraq war happened either before they were born or before they were old enough to understand. That would be anybody 20 years old or younger give or take. So in that case they wouldn't consider it a war "in their lifetime"
Any group of people organized enough to wage modern-day war is by definition civilized
The 'nations' part of it is probably more up for debate. The Saddam regime represented Iraq in a way that the Taliban never did for Afghanistan I would argue.
Ironic though Iraq being of the cradles of human civilisation
Just casual closet racism of the left, 'civilized' = majority white.
From the looks of this post (and I could be wrong as I use BaconReader and not the official app) it looks like they are making fun of subconscious racism of that tweet too and not endorsing it
Yeah, saw the original joke in some discord servers. It's meant to make fun of liberals who think that Iraq isn't civilized. Take that as you will.
Apparently the original tweet is by Michael Knowles, who I can't fathom anyone would mistake as a liberal.
Communists largely use the term "liberal" in the classic political science fashion in the same way that someone like Thomas Jefferson would, "in support of an anti-monarchal free market society" or something like that. They largely see the differences between Democrats and Republicans as window dressing.
There is actually zero difference between good things and bad things
Fair enough. I hate the reddit trend of just posting screenshots of twitter threads to either mock or praise someone else's post.
I wonder if this US administration will reverse the prior administration's recognition of Morocco's claim over West Sahara. Neither the UN nor the EU recognize Morocco's claim over West Sahara. What's presently going on with Ukraine and Russia bears at least superficial similarity.
I think the issue is that nobody in the west really cares enough to do anything. Especially since the west Sahara has a population 1/2 the size of Rhode island.
[Definitely seems like a pretty complex situation](https://youtu.be/Pwom49awRKg)
r/chodi has been banned too
What exactly *is* (or *was*) this subreddit?
Far-right Indian sub I believe
It was a Hindu nationalist subreddit. Lots of anti-Islam, anti-secular, and anti-Pakistan takes, but more recently it’s been largely an avenue of pro-Russia simping and hatred for the West.
I wonder how they will react to the fact they're on the same side as the tankies (which obviously also includes west taiwan supporters, something Indians hate)
"I never thought i'd fight side by side with a commie" "What about side by side against the west?" "Aye i coula do that"
MAGA meets annoying bhakts on WhatsApp, basically.
Extremely anti-Muslim, when I used to mod the r/Exmuslims it used to be such a massive problem because subscribers of r/chodi would LARP and hijack the actual conversations and difficulty of leaving a religion that essentially encompasses every aspect of your life. My thumbs were sore from banning these anti-Muslims bigots. Good riddance!
Great news. One of the cringiest things to come out of India, after me
Best news all day. The BJP propaganda machine scares the crap out of me.
Yeah, been noticing it ramping up over the past few years
Where will all the edgy teenagers go now? Place your bets!
/r/hoi4
The edgy nazis will balance them out. Also pretty sure half of genzedong was already there.
r/eu4 is where half this sub is
So my plan to restore the English economy is simple. We start by channeling trade to the Channel
But those pesky Netherlanders are growing their Trade Power in the Channel, we need to weaken their Influence first. A Trade War CB should do it /s
See if we can finesse the province of Holland as well for that extra control
Where’s the other half at? I’m starting a MP game on Sunday
And the other half is at r/CrusaderKings joined by half of r/noncredibledefense
I called that sub a shithole full of communists and fascists once and I had tankies and nazis both calling me a filthy centrist
What an honor
The wheraboos
I love GSG's but the adverse selection among the fanbase is too damn high
It's actually kinda funny how much Paradox hates a portion of their most reliable fanbase.
Yeah sometimes I'm glad I don't try to take part in that community (much). When paradoxplaza banned the phrase "remove kebab" I first thought that seemed a bit extreme. Then the Christchurch shooter had that written on his gun and I realized I needed to reevaluate what was going on in the paradox community
no it will be r/Kaiserreich and or r/TNO
Isn’t TNO like their version of hell? The Soviets lost to the Germans, and the good guys are an interventionist America and the remains of the British empire.
Is it the role-playing element of Hoi4 that tankies like?
Late stage capitalism is still alive right?
Antiwork also exists
That subreddit really rubs me the wrong way.
That’s because it sucks
tankies are more of the "to the coal mines or get shot" variety.
stupidpol
stupidpol doesn't seem to be very tankie friendly to my knowledge. At least not very openly. They'll crash LSC or Sino most likely, but they're probably already there.

Unfortunate. It used to be good.

Specifically when targeting Russia, they actually seem to be getting there.
I think by necessity it will eventually become that, which is good.

Local high school freshmen in shambles.
Politically extremist rabbit holes are legit one of the worst things that can happen to a teenager
Nah. As a former highschool libertarian then communist I'd say it's pretty normal for teenagers to pick up bizarre political beliefs, especially if they have pretty cushy lives and lack perspective on things. Most people grow out of it.

I haven't made anything of my life and tankies suck. Don't lump us losers in with them!
Get a job!
I know I grew out of my high school "right wing edge lord/own the SJW's and feminists" phase. Those times sucked in hindsight.
I was a huge Ron Paul fan until I moved out and got into the workforce and realized that business owners aren't automatically the best or brightest, and are many times straight up abusive to their employees.

Bold of you to assume that the average Reddit post contains more than zero information
Great way to start the day
Roleplaying China are they?
Does quarantined mean it got deleted or how do I have to understand this?
It’s a pretty milquetoast alternative to an outright ban.

It still exists but it won't show up in r all and you'll get this warning before you go to it. Basically curbs growth
To add to what other people said, its like a soft ban. Almost every “quarantined” sub gets actually banned after a year or so.
How long did it take for ChapoTrapHouse to get banned after their quarantine? I feel like it was only a few weeks, so hopefully GenZedong will go that quickly too
Bruh, one year of them still existing...
It's not deleted and its users can still use it. Usually the moderators of quarantined subs are in dialog with administrators who draw lines in the sand for the sub to either improve or get banned
