    Bibi's government is happy this has happened. Basically the only option given to Palestinians is: die a slow death or go down fighting. This is not a "both sides" issue. Israel is fascist dump.

    Honestly I wouldn't have been banned from the site but once I was permabanned from a subreddit I bitched out the mods and call them subhuman, less than worthless and pigs lol. I kind of wanted to be banned at this point so I can be on the other side of reddit.

    True. I never "trusted" big tech. But I was kind of taken aback at how quickly they began banning people for the stupidest of offenses.

    I agree. It's basically a cross between Facebook and Quora now with even more authoritarian moderation. I think the next "reddit" will also be something different. I just wish more people would check out the alternatives and I wish the people designing the alternates (raddle, squabbles) were a little bit less esoteric so that they were easier to adopt.

  • This is a community dedicated to the teaching of Chan / Zen in the form it emerged in China. This community does not recognize branches which call themselves Zen but have no connection to these lineages. We do not recognize Zen as a form of Buddhism or as being synonymous with Buddhism. Chan Buddhism: Chan Buddhism, known as Zen in Japan, originated in China during the 6th century CE. It emphasizes direct insight into one's true nature and the nature of reality, often through the use of meditation (called "zazen" in Japan). Chan practitioners seek to transcend conceptual thinking and intellectual understanding, aiming for direct experiential realization of enlightenment. Chan masters are known for using unconventional methods, such as using paradoxical questions called "koans," to disrupt ordinary thinking and awaken their disciples to the profound truth. Chan Buddhism places a strong emphasis on the transmission of enlightenment from master to disciple and has been influential in shaping the broader Zen tradition. Dogen's Zen: Dogen Zen, also known as Soto Zen, is a Japanese school of Zen that was founded by the monk Dogen Zenji in the 13th century. Dogen studied Chan Buddhism in China and then returned to Japan to establish his school. While Dogen's Zen shares many core principles with Chinese Chan, it introduced some unique aspects. Dogen emphasized the practice of zazen (seated meditation) as the primary means of attaining enlightenment, without necessarily relying on koans. He stressed that enlightenment is not something separate from everyday life but can be realized through fully engaging in mundane activities. This notion is encapsulated in the famous phrase "practice-enlightenment" or "shikantaza," which means "just sitting" or "just being." Dogen's teachings also emphasized the concept of "non-duality," the idea that enlightenment and delusion are not separate realms but are interconnected aspects of reality.

    Part of me is wondering if the whole reddit-style format will die with Reddit the way blogs kind of aren't a thing anymore.

    Thanks. You're right. I don't have much of an option since I got the 7 day ban for calling the mods "pigs" and "cowards" for permabanning me from a subreddit. I need to touch grass, delete that account so Spez has less numbers, and then build up stuff on here.

    No. They want to turn it into a US-client state again. That's why I don't support them. Anybody who sides with Israel and the US is not a revolutionary.

    Basically, Reddit will become a hollow corporate piece of shit like Quora or Facebook so the deluded pigs can buy "shares of reddit" completely not understanding how it's the worst investment imaginable. One of these alternatives will eventually rise up because of dedicated mods and people like us, then the mindless normies who are still chained to reddit will find out about us and migrate there, but it IS KEY THAT FILTH THAT RUINED REDDIT never be allowed to have any power on the new site.

    I understand how they feel because the people who destroyed reddit won't be punished as individuals. It would be so nice if the whole website was just destroyed. And the ghouls who migrate here banned forever.

  • I'm in the post-ban blackpilled mode right no so please forgive me. I know reddit is falling apart but it isn't happening fast enough. Is there any hope that the whole site will be destroyed? I really just want the whole site / app completely destroyed and thew Vichyite mods unable to have their power trips anymore.
