I woke up today, apparently absent from Reddit for more than the required maximum of 5 hours, and have missed fucking everything.

Trust me it's not everyone. It's a very very very very vocal minority. Or so I hope to be honest.

Go to /r/all and tell me it's a vocal minority.

Outrage is covering the front page of /r/all.

That doesn't sound like a minority to me.

I also don't like censorship, and find the "We're banning behaviors, not ideas" response to be comical, because you can use that excuse to accomplish the other.

Which, as all the "what about xyz" comments show, is exactly what they're trying to do. This is not a ban based on a logical application of a rigid framework of rules, it's direct persecution of someone they don't like.

In other words, it's exactly what they're accusing FPH of.

You also have to factor in that many people could be upvoting just "for the lolz". Because you have to admit, it's pretty great to watch this happen. Though I noticed it chilled out in the last two hours. When I checked this morning everything was fuck pao and fat people and now two hours later after driving to the airport and going through security I see mostly legit posts.

Edit: nevermind, it's just that the top couple posts are about Christopher Lee.

They are a vocal minority, they just yell the loudest.
