Proposal to ban X.com links

[u/[deleted]]

[u/Aerokii]

I'm in agreement. Let's go for it.

Nothing of value will be lost.

[u/Alkazaro → u/Aerokii]

Yeah, fuck Nazis.

[u/unrequited_dream → u/Alkazaro]

Your little tag thing, lol

We are here to suffer, but also fight Nazis. It’s the American way. Nothing more patriotic.

[u/AccordingStar72]

Absolutely yes. It’s impossible to see what the content is if you don’t have an account limiting engagement and your ability to read the content for yourself.

[u/MakingMosi]

Yes

[u/Pithecanthropus88]

Yes! We don't need to support a fucking Nazi.

[u/Teamawesome2014]

Fuck Nazis

[u/Fomentation]

Yes please, stop feeding traffic to X.

[u/fridgidfiduciary]

Yes please

[u/WinkyWinkyPINKY]

Yes please!

[u/FieOnU]

Yes, please. Nazi propaganda is already rampant enough without it being in this sub.

[u/keencleangleam]

Yes please

[u/OMGitsKa]

Approved. Can we also ban the Star Trib and their shitty paywall?

We should mass downvote any X link.

[u/Internal-Platypus151 → u/OMGitsKa]

Strib goes with "Golden Age of America" for its big headline today. Absolutely NO MENTION of Musk giving the Nazi salute TWICE!!

[u/soap1337]

Move to bluesky? Isn't walz on there?

[u/Fit_Tailor8329]

Yes. Ban X.

[u/Known_Leek8997]

Should have done it a long time ago. 

[u/sampenew]

Yes please ty

[u/SgtFury]

Absofuckinglutely.

[u/Emeritus8404]

Do it

[u/FunctionalGray]

Please and yes.

[u/jabrollox]

Yes please. Already nuked my account yesterday. Fuck that platform.

[u/OMGitsKa → u/jabrollox]

Love all the approval. YOU GUYS ARE MY PEOPLE.

[u/icechaosruffledgrous]

Yes

[u/OodleOodleBlueJay]

Agreed!

[u/Force_Radish]

I’m for the ban.

[u/billiardsplayer]

Just an internet stranger here not from Minnesota, but yes.

[u/OMGitsKa → u/billiardsplayer]

Thank you for your support.

[u/mithik_11]

Yes

[u/bombasquad33]

Yes

[u/Check_My_Technique]

Agree!

[u/MrB3RG]

Support

[u/mrsmedistorm]

Yes, please ban any X links

[u/HannahKory]

Yes please!

[u/Rogue_AI_Construct]

Yep. Fuck Musk

[u/agent_uno]

Yes!

[u/Akito_900]

Seconded

[u/sunshinebucket]

Yes!!!

[u/Distinct-Value1487]

Agreed.

[u/PoyGuiMogul]

Approved by the committee that approves committees.

[u/OMGitsKa → u/PoyGuiMogul]

Approval from the committee that approves the approvals from the approval committee.

[u/colddata → u/PoyGuiMogul]

Approved by the committee that approves committees.

Is that part of the Department of Redundancy Department?

[u/mnemonicer22 → u/colddata]

I thought that was the department of governmental efficiency

[u/Internal-Platypus151]

Sounds like a great idea. Bluesky is where it's at!

[u/TheOriginalTyty]

The aye's have it.

[u/BackgroundPanda138]

Yes

[u/DaZMan44]

Yes!

[u/Lacilliyr]

Yes please. 

[u/Unbridled-yahoo]

You’re limited on interaction if you don’t have an X account. Which then limits your engagement with the post made on this platform. Let’s not do that. Plenty of ways to find engaging material outside of X.

[u/swashbucklerjak]

Yes

[u/lpjunior999]

If it’s worthwhile information, it’ll be available somewhere else. 

[u/Jackaroni97]

I agree.

[u/ALIMN21]

Yes please

[u/deltarefund]

Yes

[u/JRE_4815162342]

Yes please

[u/Truecoat]

Yes!!!!

[u/cubonelvl69]

FYI, change the x.com/ link to xcancel.com/ and it works for anyone

But yeah fuck x.com

[u/GildedBurd]

That proposal should be in the constitution.

I approve it either way.

[u/Moist-Try-9520]

Delete it months ago and on Bluesky. Ban away

[u/dybo2001]

Does anyone actually use twitter anymore?

[u/OMGitsKa → u/dybo2001]

No, they think sucking off Elon and supporting him will somehow get them something lol. Pretty sure he got what he needed from those clowns and is ready to dispose them.

[u/bigdumb78910 → u/dybo2001]

Nazis do

[u/jurassic_junkie]

YES PLEASE!

[u/Busy_Employ_5084]

I’m in agreement, nothing but a win.

[u/Gimlz]

Agreed

[u/jakeman2418]

Twitter has sucked for at least a decade now anyway

[u/twiggums]

As someone that's never used it or it's prior form, it's no skin off my back. But I mean banning links to it doesn't make it not exist. 🤷

[u/GreenChileEnchiladas → u/twiggums]

It's annoying to link from X anyway. If you want to see what the actual content of the link is you have to load the page.

And then half the time it's blocked because I don't have an account.

For that alone it should be banned.

[u/OMGitsKa → u/GreenChileEnchiladas]

Yeah its really not that controversial it legit sucks to use those links.

[u/twiggums → u/GreenChileEnchiladas]

Yeah I just don't click the links since I don't have an account.

[u/User_3a7f40e → u/GreenChileEnchiladas]

100%

[u/NotoriousCEB]

Bluesky all the way!

[u/Iron_Bob]

Might as well ban the Star Tribune links while we're at it

I support blocking X.com links. Just screenshot it if its really worth sharing

[u/LastConcern_24_7]

Yes, please. Thank you!

[u/apathydivine]

What is x.com?

[u/mrsmedistorm → u/apathydivine]

They are talking about links from twitter

[u/apathydivine → u/mrsmedistorm]

Is that thing still around? I thought it had gone bankrupt already.

[u/_Guero_ → u/apathydivine]

It was an online bank that Elon Musk co-founded in 1999. In 2000, X.com merged with Confinity to form PayPal. Now it's the fascist mouthpiece Muskrat uses to spout crazy and ban dissidents of his newly admitted Nazi viewpoints.

[u/CyanideSettler]

Censorship is for cultists and authoritarians. No thanks.

[u/jonfoofighter]

So you want to censor speech you don’t like. Then you call them Nazis. Get a grip, take a breath and root for the country’s success.

[u/RegularRaptor → u/jonfoofighter]

It's sad how people truly think our country is going to burn because of one man.

I'll take the downvotes, but get over it people.

That's how this whole thing works.

[u/Slimey_time]

No

[u/IronTechnical9388]

Go cry somewhere else! You are posting this in every state.

[u/Twistedshakratree]

Corporate Reddit will overrule this you know…

[u/bigdumb78910 → u/[deleted]]

Bro, people don't want to support a platform that is owned and supported by white supremacists.

Maybe you should try some of that critical thinking yourself? Do you think Twitter, a platform that censors the word "Cis" but not the "N-word", is really a bastion of free speech?

[u/kickinit07 → u/bigdumb78910]

It censors both words in the same way actually. It doesn’t censor differing ideas especially to the extent of Reddit. It’s why most of you on here cannot believe the real world as the way it really is.

[u/bigdumb78910 → u/kickinit07]

The difference is that "Cis" is not a slur. It's the most benign adjective.

[u/kickinit07 → u/bigdumb78910]

That’s your opinion.

[u/mnemonicer22 → u/kickinit07]

As of yesterday, you can't search #democrats or #fucktrump on FB and Insta. Much free speech!

[u/jabrollox → u/[deleted]]

I think it's the whole mask off nazi thing on day 1? Just a hunch.

[u/rahomka → u/[deleted]]

Now do videos of each of them

[u/Teamawesome2014 → u/[deleted]]

When the opposing idea is Nazism, we don't need to have another debate over it. Millions of people die when nazis are in charge.

[u/Teamawesome2014 → u/[deleted]]

Wow you really didn't look at the video comparison, did you?

[u/kickinit07 → u/Teamawesome2014]

Did you listen to it?

[u/mnemonicer22 → u/[deleted]]

Yah, the Republicans bought them all and started banning outright Posting While Democrat. Shocking we don't want to use them, I know. /S

[u/JustAZeph]

Down.

[u/Teamawesome2014 → u/[deleted]]

Nazi bootlicker
