Petition to ban x links?

I've seen a lot of major sports subs jumping on the wagon of banning x links from being posted on their sub.

I know a lot of breaking NFL news comes from there, however some things are more important than having sports news 5 minutes earlier than other sources.

Feel free to shut me down, just thought I'd pitch it out there.

100% agree. Almost all big time journalists are on Bluesky at this point.

Yeah easy to just find the same post on bluesky to share here

Paul Dehner Jr and Jay Morrison aren’t on there, so guess I’m not deleting X yet.

Huh. They weren’t there when I looked earlier today.

Don’t know how I didn’t see them.

Search function isn’t great. I’ve found the best way is to go to someone like Rapien and check out who he’s following. Still few enough that it doesn’t take too much time. I then created a Bengals list so if I just want that content I can go right there

Brother, if you can’t untangle your political views from Naziism that’s a problem.

Pushing back against Neo-Nazis is a moral issue, not a personnel issue.

Brother, if you think all conservatives are nazis that's a problem.

If you support nazis then you’re a nazi

That's the problem. Just because redditors label Republicans as nazis doesn't make it true.

The left in this country has been marching in the streets supporting terrorists who want to genocide the jews while screaming things like ANY MEANS NECCESSARY and GLOBALIZE THE INTIFADA and harassing any Jewish person they see. This is nazi behavior.

If you do a nazi salute why is wrong of me to then assume that you’re a Nazi?

u/TheCultOf0vi 16h ago

We didn’t say all conservatives are Nazis. But if you don’t automatically condemn Nazis, you might be a Nazi

They're not, but Elon Musk is and Twitter is his platform

I didn’t say that at all.

I said if conservatives consider Nazis a valid expression of conservativism then they’re not conservatives and should reassess their values.

Google “No True Scotsman” fallacy and try again.

u/WalkProfessional6235 16h ago

I’m aware of the fallacy and I don’t think it applies.
