    I commented supporting Canadian boycotts of American goods - an economic protest and it got removed by Reddit admins for “glorifying violence”

      Don’t you know, it’s considered violence to use economics against the rich, that’s only allowed against the poors

      well yeah; corporations are people too. they’re the MOST people people. can’t be violent against them.

      only minorities-ethnic, gender&sexual, religious, political, etc, aren’t people. it’s fine to post your smuttiest snuff fantasies about us.

        Sometimes it’s not even direct violence, redlining is sufficient to keep you stuck where they want you to be

          no but see it’s not violence at all, because it’s against minorities. so it’s fine. whereas the mildest fraud of your bank is literally worse than the holocaust.
