I installed the official Reddit app and went on it to see what the old place was looking like now. My inbox was filled with spam. The "home feed" shows subs I never subscribed to. There are so many ads. Between the ads and the the extra subs in the feed, it's hard to just scroll. I also noted a lot of spam in some of the subs. Maybe they are subs with no mods? I'm not sure what's up with that.

    Peaceful protests are a convenient way to gather everyone that disagrees with you and slaughter them all, unarmed. Just ask China about the year 1989

      Or ask the British empire in India in 1947… Peaceful protests won them their independence and started the ball rolling for decolonialization worldwide.

          End result? Civil rights legislation and the end of Jim Crow Laws. He did die though, but all his immediate goals were accomplished and significant progress was made on his major goals and he is a hero to millions.
