for anyone who wasn’t around for the dustup when r/ContraPoints declared war on the old subreddit, here’s a sample of the moderation team’s style:
I’ve asked you
TWO
Extremely clear questions.
ONE:
CAN YOU ABIDE BY OUR COMMUNITY’S RULES?
and
TWO:
WERE YOU TRYING TO CALL ME A LIAR?
These are questions I asked YOU.
You can answer them – or not.
And you can participate here.
Or not.
The moderation team of /r/ContraPoints is the moderation team of /r/ContraPoints.
YOU are NOT on it.
Before 35 minutes ago, you’d never participated in our community.
How we run our community is our business, and the business of the people who participate here in good faith.
We don’t allow disrespect; We don’t allow verbal or emotional abuse; We don’t allow people to brigade our subreddit and post off-topic posts and metadrama.
What YOU think you know about our moderation team is informed solely by third-hand hearsay and screenshots released by someone abusing their position, edited and therefore cherry picked to support a narrative.
That narrative is abusive.
It will not be allowed.
No one will be allowed to come here and back-seat run our subreddit, or light torches and brandish pitchforks.
So now,
THREE Questions:
The first two still must be answered,
and
AM I PERFECTLY CLEAR THAT YOU ARE NOT A MODERATOR OF THIS SUBREDDIT?
adrian zenz is literally a nazi
Damn that mod has Big Cop Energy
Do they get paid? I don’t think I even browsed 275+ subreddits, that’s insane.
A huge downside of any group that relies on volunteer leadership is that you can easily attract sickos who are in it for petty power and little else. They’re the ones most willing to shovel the necessary shit for free, and the “thankless job” defense excuses all sorts of conduct that wouldn’t be tolerated in almost any other environment.
This and all similar problems are exacerbated when your leadership goes from part-time to full-time (as one must be if they’re modding dozens of subreddits).
“Another important God-given authority structure that Satan is attacking through the postmodern spirit is that of gender authority structures”, Zenz continued. “Through notions of gender equality […] the enemy is undermining God’s unique but different role assignments for men and women.”
The head mod is a psycho and has been for years.
I remember how one of the r/contrapoints mods tried to paint CTH as rabidly transphobic on AgainstHateSubreddits.
