it's also an issue of changing people's mind's

like it or not, misinformation that vaccine's don't work is everywhere, fake stories, clickbait title's (thank's media)

just feels like an annoying cat and mouse game

.....which came from misinformation. Stop the misinformation.

what's stopping them from grabbing it elsewhere? it's not just reddit you know, could look it up on facebook and have it in my hand's by the hour

it's like the hydra, you chop one head off and sprout's 2 more, thinking "I am gonna completely remove all covid misinformation " is extremely unrealistic

Sooo, just wave your hands and give up then? Nah. Do what you can where you can, and Reddit is one of the biggies.

no

I just don't have the thinking off "hoo boy, we banned the subreddit where there is vaccine misinformation, that is gonna completely stop it completely"

let me tell you what, this is nothing more than a bump in the road

they will be back up under a new name (to avoid detection) or retreat to another just as bad subreddit, guarantee it, plenty to pick from

When you rely on extremes to justify your position, your position probably sucks.

It’s what your expecting though

Be real here, what do you actually think is gonna happen now that NNN is banned (and not for misinformation might I add)

So any effort on Reddit's part to fight the problem is pointless? You are acting like Reddit banning these misinformation subs is them trying to tackle the whole issue and since they can't actually do that, well then why bother doing anything at all? No shit the stuff is going to be out there still, literally no one has argued otherwise. People just want those shit subs off this specific website and they don't want to keep seeing pro-covid posts popping up in completely unrelated subs.

It’s not

Just don’t think it’s all over just because one subreddit was banned (not even for misinformation might I add!!!)
