Reddit has been systematically deleting and banning users who share pictures of Tiennamin square. Tencent has a massive investment in reddit. We are at the mercy of the CCP and u/spez
Listen, there are so many legitimate criticisms of Reddit, no one needs to make things up. This happens every year in June. Somebody posts about Tiananmen, some automod or real mod removes it, someone screams “Reddit” is censoring things.
There are tons of posts about Tiananmen that are still up after years. Tencent owns a small minority stake in Reddit.
spreading misinformation is what he’s here for and so the post stays. why else would one wait 3 weeks to dig up a comment, get all the facts wrong, and use it as clickbait to stir up fake drama over absolutely nothing and make reddit critics look stupid. while plenty of real things are going on where the critics are right. “I will keep this post up because I think it is an interesting discussion to have” my ass and that’s a dead giveaway of the guy’s bad faith agenda. straight from the cointelpro playbook for online misinformation
How many people will read the title without the comments and leave with the wrong idea?
