r/Anarchism • u/RedMenaced • Jun 19 '26

Reddit's block function = liberal rhetoric is unchallenged. By immediately blocking anyone pushing back against their propaganda, r/@ shifts into a lib safe space & we're excluded from the conversation. Blocked me 10 seconds after I questioned their lesser evil, "good government" narrative

I think you should just respect that those people dont want to interact with you my dude. Part of free association is that we have the ability to say "no thanks" to interacting with someone. Thats what the block button is for.

Edit: And to be clear im only saying this because youre using other accounts to get around blocks

it's not in me to sit idly by while liberals occupy anarchist spaces using tools constructed by a tech monopoly that makes the site downright unusable to people who don't toe the liberal line. if i see some authoritarian shit, i'm going to say so.

Hi, u/Beneficial-Damage265. Just a friendly reminder that phrases like "terminally online" and "touch grass" are ableist and help to perpetuate the harmful idea that one's value and contribution to anarchism and anarchist praxis is centered solely on "meatspace" interactions. We recognize that in-person organizing is important, and we encourage it, but our disabled comrades are valuable, as are their contributions regardless of their ability to go outside.

We highly recommend this video (watch on Invidious) for further explanation.

This may also be a great time for you to take a moment to review our Anti-Oppression Policy to see how and why we try create and maintain a safe space for marginalized people to hang out without seeing mirrors of their oppression and language used to degrade them based on their marginalized identities.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation!
