Who downvoted this? Conservatism has always been an ideology that’s opposed to progress, democracy and freedom. It holds back society to preserve tradition and “family values” while promoting xenophobia, bigotry, and unquestioned submission to authority. The most conservative states in the United States are also some of the poorest, with the lowest standards of living, and also the most backwards. It isn’t much different in other countries. The Nazis were conservative. Islamic countries with Sharia Law are conservative. And right now, American Conservatives are trying to implement a Christian-flavoured Sharia Law.

Have you not been paying attention to what’s been going on? The protests have done serious damage to Reddit’s reputation, the viability of its IPO, and is causing a significant drop in the number of users. Not to mention the loss of content creators and moderators who are necessary for the site to function. The protests are intentionally making the site unusable to bore and drive out those who are reasonable, and leaving only those who shill for and lick the boots of Spez and the rest of the incompetent administration team. And without content to consume, those people will leave as well.

Yeah, that’s literally the entire point. If the subs are unusable, site traffic falls, Huffman makes less money and looks worse to the investors, and people find better alternatives like here.

And I haven’t seen a single post that’s just memes about why they pirate or how morally superior we are for doing so. It’s a breath of fresh air.

It’s what I’ve always used, and it hasn’t given me much trouble. The only annoying thing it does sometimes is get stuck at 0kb/s, but that’s fixed by just pausing and unpausing the download. It supports magnet links natively as well and can auto-detect when you click on one to download.
