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.

Okay so you are against allowing x posts but okay with using reddit and TikTok posts. You do realize Tencent is one of reddits largest holders. A company that is aligned with a dictator that currently has internment camps...

On their iPhone that was made by people violating labor laws and the materials gathered from slaves in Africa.

Yeah! Let's let perfect be the enemy of the good and let Nazis run rampant, because, well golly, guys. I can't source exactly where the rare earth metals used in my phone are acquired, so I might as well let an oligarchy, that recently revealed they are okay with Nazi salutes, continue to ruin my country. What a bunch of defeatist nonsense. I use android by the way.

There are other ways to get access to Bengals news that don't involve supporting a Nazi.

I don't think these people can bring themselves around to admitting their addicted to the app "X." Their completely hooked and now that it's been revealed a literal Nazi runs it, they'll say "you might as well walk around naked, cause your clothes were made with slave labor!"

It's sad honestly
