But that's what they *want*

2018-08-01 19:15:44 UTC  

the thing is, if you do not participate

2018-08-01 19:15:49 UTC  

they gain territory

2018-08-01 19:15:50 UTC  

The idea is that if they can cast you out or make you leave it leaves all the assets to them.

2018-08-01 19:15:51 UTC  

for free

2018-08-01 19:15:54 UTC  

^

2018-08-01 19:15:56 UTC  

Extreme center? Unite the normie?

2018-08-01 19:16:02 UTC  

That's my thought.

2018-08-01 19:16:24 UTC  

If you're just getting banned for speaking out, just let the community become an echo chamber

2018-08-01 19:16:32 UTC  

they usually die afterwards

2018-08-01 19:16:36 UTC  

everyone that doesn't have an opinion on politics feels like a lefty

2018-08-01 19:16:43 UTC  

do they?

2018-08-01 19:16:43 UTC  

or maybe I'm too much to the right

2018-08-01 19:16:50 UTC  

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

2018-08-01 19:17:05 UTC  

Just letting the channel become an echo chamber is a failing strategy in the long run.

2018-08-01 19:17:21 UTC  

In part because if it's something like language learning there's another reason for people to get involved.

2018-08-01 19:17:31 UTC  

It makes it *more* effective as propaganda, which is the whole idea.

2018-08-01 19:17:33 UTC  

IF you can't talk to the content creator associated with it

2018-08-01 19:17:52 UTC  

The content creator probably doesn't care enough to interfere.

2018-08-01 19:17:59 UTC  

it's pretty much going to be a lost cause if the admins want to pull it that way

2018-08-01 19:18:04 UTC  

Kicking the mod team over a couple complaints isn't worth it.

2018-08-01 19:18:25 UTC  

I dunno, seems like you're not escalating properly in that case

2018-08-01 19:18:27 UTC  

was gonna say exactly that

2018-08-01 19:18:32 UTC  

I would care if it was me

2018-08-01 19:18:33 UTC  

the creator doesnt care

2018-08-01 19:18:38 UTC  

really?

2018-08-01 19:18:41 UTC  

he thinks it is business as usual

2018-08-01 19:18:44 UTC  

"he was a troll"

2018-08-01 19:18:48 UTC  

The fundamental issue with libertineism is that everyone just loses one-by-one

2018-08-01 19:18:56 UTC  

"he was offtopic, it was the 3rd time"

2018-08-01 19:18:56 UTC  

Defeat in detail in military parlance.

2018-08-01 19:19:03 UTC  

And then *banned*

2018-08-01 19:19:16 UTC  

"he said a racial slur in <#463054787336732683>"

2018-08-01 19:19:24 UTC  

I've played mod against some errant lefties. It's amazing how fast they switch to being free speech.

2018-08-01 19:19:31 UTC  

they don't even warn, they go full ban mode

2018-08-01 19:19:39 UTC  

The problem is that there's some people who only understand power and their team.

2018-08-01 19:19:50 UTC  

And are willing to lie for the team.

2018-08-01 19:19:59 UTC  

And as long as they can do that, they will.

2018-08-01 19:20:13 UTC  

let's be honest, most Youtubers want a friendly environment

2018-08-01 19:20:40 UTC  

this gives the false sense that lefties with safe space and anti-free speech is the right choice for them

2018-08-01 19:20:56 UTC  

Pretty much. It's also rapidly becoming the norm.
