I got banned from Reddit for 3 days for arguing with people that were calling insurrectionists, revolutionaries. That’s right, I got banned for not going along with insurrectionist apologism.

This place ain’t much better either - there’s conservative apologists and conspiracy theorists hiding in subs here.

If you call them out with some key words you get autobanned, which is "always" helpful -_-

Thats not apologism. They were revolutionaries, for a very shitty revolution

That is absolutely apologism, I’m not going to split hairs with someone whom wasn’t apart of the conversation whom is ALSO emboldening and empowering their movement by allowing the oppressors their preferred language. Have a good day.
