    They are refusing to ban X/Twitter links. Avoid that place like the plague until they become American and be against Nazism/Racism like we all should be.

    Moving this to off topic for very obvious reasons.

    It's blind because most message boards depend upon Twitter. A board commits suicide if it bans Twitter.

    Boards existed long before Twitter and they’ll exist long after. You might have to press your greasy little fat fingers on a hyperlink but it will get you to your destination.

    You musn’t of heard of Realgm.

    Not following reddit but are the different sub reddits banning posts from twitter or links to twitter?

    Posting a twitter link shows you the tweet but also counts as traffic for them.



    vs

    Posting a screenshot or screen capture shows the tweet but it's just a picture and doesn't count as traffic.

    Calling them pro Nazi is a bit over the top

    By OP's logic, I guess that means Sportstwo is also pro-Nazi...?

    Look, the mods work very hard, but they also haven’t banned several obvious fascist accounts that have been posting recently. Maybe not pro Nazi but not exactly super duper anti Nazi either.

    Clearly this means you're pro-Olshey. Almost as bad.
