Temporary Test Incel Thread Moratorium

[deleted] · 2016-09-30T16:54:58+00:00

Queue a few dozen incel-ish treads that don't contain the word incel.

OH THANK GOD.

Incels really have no place attention-whoring on a gender/sexual strategy sub.

COPCO2 · 2016-09-30T19:36:31+00:00

It's not that it isn't worth discussing, it's that incel's are pretty stuck in their ways, so any discussion is just pointless. Thank you for keeping the apathetic at bay.

Serious question to u/LeaneGenova .....

What about posts about voluntary celibates or "volcels?"

I think it's an interesting topic that I have not seen covered here. And, I am one soooo.....

Sweet baby Jesus, thank you.

despisedlove2 · 2016-09-30T12:59:02+00:00

Though they irritate me a lot, I think that muzzling expression of someone's state of mind seems a little strange.

I am fine with it either way.

disposable_pants · 2016-09-30T16:36:35+00:00

I'm 100% in agreement with this.

I was slightly hesitant about this idea before but I totally support it now. It particularly went off the rails this week. Good call.

YYYAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSS

THANK YOU!

Yes, all those incel threads tend to drive the topic into the ground. I've actually noticed that there are more threads about incels than threads from incels.

LittleWindowpane · 2016-10-01T00:39:30+00:00

The "incel" term does not really describe the problem that a lot of ForeverAlones face. It's a lack of social and romantic capital that causes people to have a lot of trouble finding relationships. "Incel" just addresses the symptoms of social poverty, not the causes. It's split about 50:50 between environment and culture; a lot of incels and ForeverAlones have developed their own culture of helplessness and this hurts a lot of them.

incels btfo

Princeso_Bubblegum · 2016-09-30T15:02:27+00:00

what's an incel?

[deleted] · 2016-09-30T21:34:54+00:00

good job LeaneGenova!

machimus · 2016-09-30T13:55:01+00:00

Do i count as incel?

czerdec · 2016-10-05T13:19:56+00:00

Well, the disaster has happened. PPD has been conquered by the pro-censorship mob.

So the subreddit is now a zombie, bereft of intellectual life. It happens. I'm working on a censorship-free version of this subreddit. Everyone who opposed this awful censorship is automatically a member, should they want it.

czerdec · 2016-10-05T16:01:47+00:00

So the sub's job now is to coddle people who get "burned out" by words on the internet?

This isn't what I signed up for. I'm here for fearless debate, not this hugbox.

[deleted] · 2016-10-08T23:01:40+00:00

Can someone teach me how to get taller?

oilpainter777 · 2016-10-09T03:26:01+00:00

It has been over 7 days, when is the moratorium going to be lifted?

darkmoon09 · 2016-10-01T18:52:19+00:00

Incels are a relevant discussion here on PPD. Since many of TRP's base are incels of course they're going to come to PPD to debate the topic. The ones who are bitching about the influx of incel threads are so not so much because some of the posts are annoying, but because they hate being confronted with the incel topic itself, the fact that some people can't get laid upsets their world view so they'd rather not have to deal with the topic.

AnUndecidedPill · 2016-10-05T21:21:56+00:00

I don't care how much something is persistent, this should be a free-speech zone where anything goes, we're here to freakin DEBATE, we're talking about the real world and being adults about it, why the censorship? don't these topics happen in bursts every few weeks anyway? Are we also going to ban the rape threads too when there is an influx of them?

I don't think it should be banned outright, why not make it a new flair? if someone wants to discuss incel it'll have to be it's own separate flair, maybe that would be a little more manageable.
