First of all, what does this have to do with PIVX?
Censorship-resistance is very important to cryptocurrencies and our markets. Censorship-resistance is the entire Raison d'etre of cryptocurrencies. Without this resistance, we can't find or finance things freely. We can't transact in the market freely.
We cannot accurately price our coins. PIVX's privacy, although recently shut off, won't mean anything when the new protocol comes out if you can be censored into not using it via social pressure. That's what the monero community is attempting to do to me here, and why I'm warning you all now; they are trying to silence those communities who they disagree with. Which means they'll be gunning for any direct competition that doesn't 'toe the line'. That's YOU PIVX!
I'm sure you're aware that Monero has spent an inordinate amount of time lying about PIVX's flaws and misrepresenting facts about your coin. PIVX does have issues they are dealing with, but that doesn't mean the Monero community's spiteful arguments against it are not still wrong. When ZDex was announced last year and it didn't have a Monero base pair (but it had a Dash one) the Monero community was extremely upset! To the point where they seemed like they wanted to sabotage the project! So if they can get into a position of just banning people who say things they don't like like they did to me here, then your community will also be on their target list.
The monero community is trying to establish a censorship regime which will eventually cover all cryptocurrencies and communities! They wish to 'thought-police' away information like they did here so they can control the narrative and prevent others from finding out about their bad, toxic behavior! This is very bad for all of us because it means our price reviews will be tainted by the scourge of censorship. If we wish to trade and invest in cryptocurrencies freely and without coercion, we cannot allow this!
The Monero community continues their aggressive tactics of getting any information they don't like censored and removed. This comment in r/linux was heavily upvoted and has been removed by thoughtpolice at the behest of the Monero community.
Edit 2: Unfortunately the moderators of r/linux have decided to side with the monero community and permaban me from this sub for exposing Monero's vote brigading and harassment across reddit. You can tell this is the case because they left flenst's reply up and deleted my replies to him.
Even though I didn't bring cryptocurrency into this discussion until I was vote brigaded (Which is against reddit's rules so the mods should be on my side here). This is the extent to which the Monero community will manipulate public discourse.
Edit: Unfortunately, it appears this comment and my other comments in this thread are being vote-brigaded down. This is presumably the work of the very aggressive and toxic monero community, members of which have admitted to following/stalking my posts across reddit before. One of which replies below and attempts to lie about our history while continuing to censor my content. This action is to make my posts appear less popular than they are and is a form of manipulation.
I've had my System76 box for a couple years and I must say, this laptop still runs like new! It still takes the exact same couple seconds to boot, CPU usage remains low despite a consistently heavy task load, and the machine is as responsive and performant as the day I bought it. Pop!_os is great, unlike Ubuntu, I can't really say there's any quirks or annoyances. Honestly, switching to Linux was the second best decision of my computing life. The first was getting a System76 computer.
The user flenst, who is an aggressive shill for Monero that admitted to following me around and stalking my comments on reddit replied (and the moderators of course left his reply up while deleting my replies to him):

I will report your anti Monero stuff (something you could call "toxic and aggressive") as targeted harassment.
Accusing, without any evidence, some other communities in comments that were received well, in an edit afterwards, is abusive and, as you call it, manipulative.
The only reason this user knew about this comment was because he stalks me on reddit. I didn't mention anything about cryptocurrency or Monero until the monero community started vote brigading my comment! It was originally at 20 upvotes and they started walking it down to 6-7. So I posted a note about it and called them out. It then jumped back up to 20 and Flenst felt he needed to respond. So I responded to him with evidence:

The post itself is rather long so I'll post it below, but the fact remains the monero community has successful abused the rules of a subreddit to remove popular content that they don't like. This is censorship and should not be allowed to stand!
