Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

You absolutely can keep talking to people on there. Just make a new account. Don't tell me you actually give a fuck about that karma bullshit
No, I didn't have much "karma" anyways because I mostly posted on relatively small subs and you get downvoted a lot on bigger subs for "actually the HK protesters are bad" "No, what's happening in Bolivia IS a coup" etc etc. It just seems like a lot of work, I mean I'd have to make a throwaway email, and I know for a fact I'd get sucked back into politics talk and rebanned anyways.
Seems like a lot of work to raise my own blood pressure. I'm sure at some point someone on some hobby sub will post something I want to talk about and I'll change my mind though.
When I still used 
I had some nerd stalking my account that reported me for inciting violence when I said when the revolution came everyone with a K-On pfp was getting the wall (they are almost invariably fascists and love to say the most racist shit you've ever heard in your life)
What is K-On?
It's a wholesome anime about high school girls starting a rock band that's pretty well regarded since it's the rare show that doesn't sexualize teenagers, 4chan latched onto it and like putting SS uniforms on the characters.
I got permabanned from reddit for anti-Nazi rhetoric. I don't think the site is worthwhile anymore.
I got banned after seeing an article on Reddit about a white cop who killed an innocent black woman and was found not guilty by a jury in a red state. I simply said that I could understand if one of the victim's family members tracked down the officer and killed him. Permanent ban.
Am I crazy, or was my comment really that bad?
Nah, not at all. It wasn't a threat, or incitement. It was just an observation. Reddit is a run by CIA affiliated white supremacists.
no irony or jokes or anything-- the fact that normal people are still spending time on reddit kind of makes me uncomfortable. like im finally fully off it basically and its definitely not convenient for a few niche topics, but i couldn't keep typin that url (except i do muscle memory the whole dota 2 subreddit sometimes in completely unrelated circumstances lol)
like im not looking at people browsing reddit on the train as if they must be racist but it is super creepy to me imagining what kinds of content/comments theyre scrolling by
i should disclaim i know this is just my perception and its not like i CHOOSE to feel this way so im not like trying to overreact or anything, it just feels super weird
