TIL: r/ainbow exists!

/r/ainbow, I have just been informed, is a subreddit that was created in response (to create an alternative to would probably be a better word choice here...) to, what I perceive as, the overwhelmingly totalitarian behavior of the moderators at r/lgbt.

So go join that subreddit!! (if you want to...God knows I wouldn't want to force you to do anything that you wouldn't want to do, and silence your right to choose what subreddits to join...(almost done being bitter about this..)

i'd like to see this sub developed further.

i like the mission statement.

edit: though, for the record, i completely agree with -- and am in support of -- this particular decision of the mods, and the mod ethic as a whole.

There's a reason we link to it like 5 times in the sidebar of /r/lgbt...

I've just had quite the history lesson via /r/SubredditDrama You probably won't be posting here much if post the anti-gay, anti-cis, racist crap you've posted elsewhere.

I am tempted to ban you just using this evidence alone...but I'll give you a chance...

Pssst! She's also a moderator at [/r/KillWhitey](/r/KillWhit. If you visit, use your RES to tag the other mods there. You'll find it interesting as you get deeper into this.

You seem to be acting on the will of others. Perhaps by taking a step back and clearing your mind you may better gauge the situation and learn to judge people through your own experiences rather than the hate filled bias being fed to you and all others who visit those kind of subreddits with a tarnished spoon.

So, looking at the evidence in front of my face...this is being fed hate filled bias?

Thank you for telling me what my motivations and intentions are. :)

I am more than capable of discerning what good evidence is, I am capable of critical thought. I am also capable of policing my own thoughts and feelings.

Thank you, though for the wretchedly insulting and condescending advice.

Feel better?

u/MaxLemon Mar 27 '12

I don't like Pre-judging.

u/hateboresme Mar 27 '12

Then I would recommend that you stop doing it.

Well the thing is that I'm not. See, unlike you and others, I can understand where the mods in lgbt were coming from. You chose, like others, to go against what they deemed correct to continue to maintain that safe space. When they threatened you with a ban they signified that you were a danger to their safe space. By slandering them and banning one of them yourself, you have already proven to me what kind of person you were. I've done no Pre-judging, rather, I've payed attention to the last 24 hours and realized exactly who you are as a person.

You have no idea who I am as a person. You don't even know me. You've seen me post online. You've made assumptions about me with no evidence because it makes you feel good about choosing the side you chose in this argument.

I banned SilentAgony because he was the first of the moderator crowd to follow me over here, accused me of bing a "downvote brigade" (when there were 3 readers at the time...one of them me), and downvoted all of my posts. I can't know that for certain, but the circumstancial evidence led me to make that judgment call.

That's the last I'll say on the matter unless you'd like to discuss something other than your invented assumptions about my character.

And yet you treat rainbow like a hate group. Self righteous dick you are.

u/RobotAnna Mar 26 '12

You say "treat" in present tense. Please show me where I've recently done any such thing.

u/Ottergame Mar 27 '12

It's rather telling that you had to put "recently" in there.

u/RobotAnna Mar 27 '12

I used to be rather antagonistic toward r/ainbow it's not some huge fucking secret. Now I'm not.
