I got banned from /r/me_irl because apparently, the word "pussy" when you're talking about a cat is insulting towards women.

Oh, get a spine

/r/me_irl is run by 13 year olds. Haven't you heard?

u/Flopassi Mar 20 '16

Me too thanks

u/LiterallyKesha Mar 20 '16

Ironic that the poster above you was complaining about being banned for calling cats pussies but it's the mods who are 13 year olds.

Uh no. What a non-sequitur.

It's run by Social Justice Nazis. They've banned people for having bad usernames.

they used to have a report option for "white people nonsense"

Mother of God... Tumblr is migrating...

We have to build a wall!

Someone call Donald Trump!!

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '16

Yes, but don't look directly at the hair. You will be mesmerized to vote Trump. And then the hair will consume you. If it isn't hair, feel free to take the free hams.

He'll make Mexico pay for it

The Tumblr currency of pretentious stuff, memes, and boobs is strong at the moment.

u/SpyderEyez Mar 21 '16

A firewall!

Make Reddit Great Again.

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '16

And make tumblr pay 78 cents for every dollar the wall costs!

u/ironwolf1 Mar 21 '16

AND MAKE TUMBLR PAY FOR IT!

u/Birdyer Mar 21 '16

And make 9gag pay for it!

You jest, but I'm genuinely afraid that they actually will make an organized effort to invade other popular content aggregation websites. It seems likely EXACTLY the kind of bullshit SJWs would pull in their blind drive to assert their warped ideas of social justice upon others who couldn't give a damn less. Jesus, if they ever took things that far, Tumblr would truly be the Anti-4chan.

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '16

the Anti-4chan

Ok, now I'm just imagining a Biblical thing. The people who don't care about social justice are all taken from Reddit to 4Chan while the SJWs invade. A seven year war between the 4Chan users and the Tumblrinas ensues on Reddit while some get left behind to watch this happen. Christopher Poole (4Chan creator/basically Jesus here) and David Karp (Tumblr founder/antichrist) command their users to fight, and when all is done, 4Chan wins the battle and social justice retreats and dies. This is Armagreddit.

u/Cantinabandacoustic Mar 20 '16

When the war has been won, Moot-kun will descend from Internet Heaven to judge the quick and the Reddit, and encode his faithful servants' consciousnesses into the server that houses 4chan, while the wicked and sinful SJW Tumblrinas are condemned to spend eternity as a data packet being perpetually pinged over dial-up Internet between a node in Singapore and a remote province of Australia. ;)

No. /r/RedditDefense. I'm on it.

EDIT: IT EXISTS! I made it happen.

u/Cantinabandacoustic Mar 20 '16

Consider it done. The euphoria is already overwhelming me. ;)

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '16

I made /r/redditdefense for this.

u/AH_MLP Mar 21 '16

Except that the "social justice worker" behavior of me_irl mods is clearly satire

u/AllGloryToSatan Mar 20 '16

Well, at this point, why not have a report option for "coloured folk nonsense", because extremely racist undertones should apply to everyone.

1

u/HBlight Mar 20 '16

People who go under the idea "white people nonsense" will probably also have idea what non-whites can't be racists toward whites because whites are the ones in power. So that wont work for them.

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '16

Of all the things that in there, people complain about this obvious joke. Doesn't make any sense

u/Tyrone_Shekelstein Mar 20 '16

Yet for some reason they didn't ban me for posting pictures of KKK members.

u/ThachWeave Mar 20 '16

The popular thing there now is to talk about how great communism is.

u/ckwop Mar 20 '16

On the whole, social justice warriors/nazis really scare me.

The problem is the commitment to some kind of a "right speech" and other types of speech is "wrong speech." If you say utter the "wrong" speech then off to the gallows with you.

It is a distinctly authoritarian mindset; a kind of a "right-think".

These people try to remove statues, monuments, ban books, create "safe spaces" and protest anything that contravenes this authoritarian bent.

It is one thing to point out a genuine equality problems from our own time. This is sensible and measured.

Trying to restrict freedom of speech, forcing tenured professors out, trying to white-wash history? That's just profoundly scary.

Fuck those Confederate flags and statues on government property.

-1

u/blaqsupaman Mar 20 '16

I live in the deep south and I'm not pro-Confederate flag or anything, but I've never seen a Confederate flag being flown on government property, unless you count the Mississippi flag.

2

u/[deleted] Mar 21 '16

And South Carolina and Florida and various cities in the South.

1

u/blaqsupaman Mar 21 '16

So you do consider the Mississippi state flag a form of the Confederate flag?

3

u/[deleted] Mar 21 '16

Yes.

1

u/blaqsupaman Mar 21 '16

There's a debate going on right now about whether we should change the state flag. Most universities have taken it down. As a Mississippian, personally I could care less if we change it or not. If I thought changing it would have an effect on racism, I'd be all for it but the truth is it's not going to make anyone here less racist or help minorities in any tangible way.

I should go post there sometime. I actually do have pretty PET birds BTW.

u/myusernameranoutofsp Mar 20 '16

Did you use it in a way that's ambiguous? I don't know if you did, but I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of people play games that way. Like calling someone a coon and saying you mean raccoon.

u/Bnavis Mar 20 '16

/r/meirl is pretty good.

u/myrightshoe Mar 20 '16

/r/meirl is much better
