There are a lot of “Shit X Says” communities now, which inevitably leads to quite a few cross-posts and makes people less likely to see others’ comments (e.g. someone comments on a “Shit Liberals Say” post, someone else on the “Shit Fascists Say” version of the post, etc.). It might be a good idea to just have one “Shit Reactionaries Say” community, either by creating a new one or by repurposing the most popular one (SLS), and then setting the other communities to only allow mod posts (basically read-only).
Thank you for coming to my TEDxLemmygrad talk. Proposal co-authored with a second mysterious tankie

Addendum: may be a good idea to also have one community for ultra-leftists separate from the one for general reactionaries.

    Not sure if that would be necessary, since the user can just block the community, if they don’t ever want to see it. I think it should be marked as NSFW if the posts within were able to cause harm to some people by just viewing a single post.

      Reactionary content can be censored, its not very healthy to ingest it all the time, even to critique it

        Yeah, you are right. Now that I think of it, nsfwing it sort of allows people to choose a middle ground (since blocking it would, make it so that you never see it, which may not be desired by some who want to avoid that type of content but still sometimes want to see it regardless).
