That assumes you had any good faith in the first place. Women's rights are being revoked and this is their response. And all you can do is cry about it. It's very pathetic.

We know you don't.
Over 3 years ago in the US: several police officers murdered a black man named George Floyd over him using a counterfeit bill within a local convenience store. They placed him on the ground and at least 2 of them placed their knees on Mr. Floyd, including one officer named Derek Chauvin who placed his knee on the neck of Mr. Floyd.
Chauvin would hold his knee there for over 7 minutes until Mr. Floyd was unresponsive. He was declared dead not even an hour later. The death of Mr. Floyd caused a wave of protests across the nation as a result of his death, and there was a greater emphasis placed on murders done by American Police. This was also essentially back to back with the public's discovery of the murder of Ahmaud Abrey who was killed by a former cop; as well as the murder of Brianna Taylor by cops who went to the wrong house in plain clothes and started shooting.
Simply put, a lot of people don't trust police in the US. Many find that police are often useless in investigations, and the body count that they rack up as alleged professionals is terrifying. This sentiment has only grown over the past several years, and there is an ever growing list of murder done by the police in the US with a very large portion being innocent civilians such as the ones mentioned above.
I hope this helped some.
My guess in their logic is that you can't be ad tracked.
That is of course if you believe that this blatantly authoritarian measure was actually done in response to terrorism.
I deserve all of the flack lol. I either misclicked or had a load issue with jerboa. My bad y'all
Huffman told NPR in an interview that Reddit needed to start behaving like an “adult” business. Earlier this week, the Reddit CEO compared the moderator-led protest to a child “blowup,” telling staffers in an internal memo that, “like all blowups on Reddit, this one will pass as well.”
I know this point has been hammered in by a lot of people, but this arrogance will eventually sink reddit. Not today, not tomorrow, not automatically after June 30th; but slowly the well will be poisoned until all faith in reddit as a platform evaporates. Both to sponsors as well as users.
I don't know if Fediverse is the future; it can be difficult to grasp for newer/casual users, the mobile apps that do exist have their flaws, and the content is limited compared to agrigators like reddit (and unfair comparison when comparing each other's size). But in the few days I've been here I've seen such a larger form of engagement than I've seen in a long time online. That's purely anecdotal, but I believe at the very least the Fediverse will lead to innovations in this space. And I'm very much looking forward to that.
IANAL but wouldn't this be on par with creating a contract or NDA with illegal elements? Wherein the contract/NDA are no longer considered valid/become void as a result. Obviously this wouldn't apply to the US and several other countries, and Reddit also has lawyers. Realistically I'm also just some dingus so someone smarter may know
They're literally complaining about women's choice to do with their sexuality as they choose. There is no good faith there to begin with, which is incredibly clear.
