What? You're personally not clicking on Reddit links and expect the world to not post Reddit links? Just don't click on them.

The parent is saying that the canonical source of the protest should probably not be on the platform being protested.

I mean, thats just sensible, especially given u/spez has previously modified user comments on the site with the intent to deceive.

Giving them clicks now is the inverse of what we are trying to do anyway.

Every click is several ad impressions. It’s not the page loads that hurt them, it’s the missing ad revenue.
