Period, end of story. Holding up the myriad issues found in modern Zimbabwe is a red herring that does not actually have anything to do that discussion. Defending the behavior and existence of Rhodesia is either racist or ignorant; only you know you which is true, and frankly I don't care to figure out which it is, but if the latter, you are welcome to research the issue, write an essay admitting the error of your ways and how you now understand just how terrible Rhodesia was, and maybe we'll consider unbanning you (Protip: This is a good starting place. If it is the former however, well, feel free to yell "censorship" all you want, but we don't really care, nor consider it applicable. /r/history is a place to discuss legitimate history, not post offensively racist propaganda.

![↑ [Discussion] Should the limits of speech on the internet be decided by a handful of CEOs? (self.Kotakul Action) submitted 6 minutes ago by Namrok More and more lately, I see this same argument. "Reddit/Twitter/Facebook is a privately owned company. You are using it for free. They can permit or disallow whatever they want." It's hard to argue against such a myopic view. It's technically true But let me ask you this. In the 21st century, do we want the limits of speech decided by a handful of CEOs? Do we want to surrender truly free speech to platform holders only? We haven't just seen FatPeopleHate and other distasteful subreddits vanish. Weve seen a lot of legitimate research, critique and news vanish down the memory hole too. Individual subreddits have their unequally applied sort of true from a certain point of view reasons for vanishing articles their community clearly wants to discuss. But when they appear on other subreddits, they still vanish off rlall once the admins in San Francisco wake up in the morning. And using their media connections, I've seen almost every tech page I read cover this negatively I have never in my life seen the news defend a CEO which takes over a company, horribly misunderstands it's customers and culture, and runs it into the ground. Ever. It's entirely unprecedented. But they are defending Ellen Pao on blatantly ideological grounds, and it disgust me I can't believe my generation, the one that grew up with unfettered free speech on the wild west of the internet, grew up and went "We've outgrown offensive speech, now nobody else should get to enjoy it either." 4 comments share all 4 comments sorted by: best ▼ H sscat [score hidden] 3 minutes ago F--- no!

In the 21st century, do we want the limits of speech decided by a handful of CEOs? Do we want to surrender truly free speech to platform holders only? What alternative do you propose? The trend is for social interaction to concentrate on a few platforms, which means that the p who control those platforms are going to control social interaction. This is nothing new, really. Every time a platform becomes toxic, people just move onto a new one.

![this post was submitted on 11 Jun 2015 Announcing Fat steepe irclgen) 3,730 points (87% upvoted) 3730 (.y ! submitted 1 day ago by OBI ⅣATER [M] @ Hello all! The mod team would like to discuss an issue with our society thatshortink has plagued us for years. In the past this was considered "gross" or "unhealthy", but more and more people are embracing it now and it's leading many people into a very unwholesome lifestyle. What I'm talking about of course is Fat Steeples. Steeples are a staple to every church or equivalent place of worship and have been around in the world for over 600 years, but recently more and more architects are allowing their steeples to get larger, leading to a dangerously hefty piece of architecture. These architects don't care about the danger they are causing to others or to themselves with these steeples and thus the world needs to be educated on this issue. Fat steeple acceptance has become the "hip" new thing for internet users everywhere and even popular pop artists have written songs about how it's "cool" to have a fat steeple. To help spread awareness about this problem /r/Circlejerk will become a Fat Steeple Hate themed subreddit. Fat steeple shaming posts will be allowed, but we are trying to glorify the beauty of a healthy steeple so feel free to post pictures of normal beautiful shafts. Please try and keep the discussion civil and on topic to steeples ONLY. Have a great day everyone and remember, fat steeple f------ suck. username password ■ remember me reset password ( login ) 253,696 shitlords O 2,425 shitlords online .

![OFFMYCHEST comments other discussions goldfish (62388) I I preferences l logout I am tired of my history being erased. (self.offmychest) ago by gottagetthisoff to r/offmychest search 450 Submit a new link Not everything is black and white in this world. As a modern-day Egyptian, I am tired of black people claiming Ancient Egypt as a black civilization and I am offended by the new Nefertiti statue that was developed by white people. Yes, Egypt is in Africa, but no it is not black. Yes, Egypt is in the Mediterranean, but it isn't white either. Yes, there are dark skinned Egyptians (my best friend is part Nubian) and there are very light-skinned Egyptians (my grandmother has blonde hair and blue eyes). I, along with the majority of other Egyptians are in the middle with olive-tan skin, but that's not the point. Race goes deeper than one's skin color. The point is the people of Egypt today have always existed there and it's just frustrating to see black and white people fight over our history when it belongs to neither of them Submit a new text post offmychest 447270 readers O 1048 users here now Enable custom subreddit styles There is a lot of controversy revolving around this and I feel like it's hypocritical that this is becoming a white vs black thing and Egyptians are excluded from the conversation My history is literally written on the walls and buried in the ground of my country. If you look at the paintings and hieroglyphics in ancient tombs, you can clearly see that the majority of the people depicted are not black or white, but a coppery golden color completely separate from the other two We are our own people and by claiming Ancient Egypt as theirs, black and white people are erasing my history his is the place to unload that baggage that's been weighing you down for days, weeks, months, or years.

He was often mistaken as being black or mixed, and was very passionate about his culture and history.
