Projection? That would be what you're doing.
> It's an ongoing situation but I love how you're trying to force everyone's hand to get to "how things were" for you.
What does ""how things were" for you." mean? How were things for me? Your comment assumes that I am trying to return reddit to a state in which I earlier preferred it, as though I am a reddit admin trying to restore reddit to a pre-blackout state, but I do not use reddit and I do not wish for reddit to be restored (on the contrary, I openly welcome the complete irreparable destruction of reddit.) You use reddit, clearly, and you have projected your use of reddit onto me.
You really should stop using reddit, but you should probably stop using online forums entirely if this is the way you're going to argue.

Please don't perpetuate flamewars on HN. It's not what this site is for, and destroys what it is for.
Classic internet projection.
> If admins lift the blackouts and people go back to using the subreddits, then obviously those people were not committed to not using reddit
Backwards logic. They may be using it to complain or it may be intervened in a myriad of ways. You're set on dismissing while pretending you don't care but then make this claims that display ignorance of typical reddit behavioural patterns.
> The answer to this problem is for you to stop using reddit, then reddit's problems won't be your problems.
You keep going to this myopic well. Hey, if this bothers you shut up. Close your screen. Go to bed.
Basic b writing.
