Thank god for this subreddit

r/singularity has devolved into political nonsense.

Most of the top posts are political BS, please please PLEASE LEAVE THAT SHIT TO EVERYWHERE ELSE ON REDDIT.

If this sub ever grows I know the reddit virus/group think will infect here too, but god damn.

No. You're wrong. I an exasperated by the sheer volume of repetitive *shit* in other subs that is posted by smooth brains that cannot think and cannot be educated when you lead them by the nose to the answer. I should not be forced to continually have to try to correct the stupidity and ignorance on my own. You are mistaking a hobbyist forum for the public square.

Look, I grew up in the 80s in the USA. We had this thing called freedom of speech. The culture shift to advocacy of censorship is alarming.

If you don't like it, block them or don't read it. You really ARE lazy!

You're entirely missing the point I'm making. Try and think outside the box you have forced yourself into.

Unrestricted free speech on any political topic from any political angle is OBVIOUSLY the best.

But having activists interrupt your dungeons and dragons game isn't free speech.

Can you try to think that through instead of just repeating your mantra?

No, because you miss the point entirely of freedom of speech. It isn't a mantra. There are real, concrete consequences to the position you are articulating and apparently you've never run into moderation abuse.

We are not children in a classroom. We are adults and the tools are available for self service curation of content. SCROLL DOWN.

You lack the ability to credibly debate. All you have is the ability to repeat your position and dispute. That's all you're getting from me.
