Who cares about reddit? Reddit is some next myspace, it already doesn't matter, if it ever really did
You really want to be part of that?
I'm just curious if you think they did us a favor with banning that subreddit. If you think they did not do us a favor, you may just be too prideful to say so. Because that would slightly contradict your worldview. Which would be a little bit ironic.
In the other comment you gave a clip of scarface. I actually never saw that movie. But given that there is a screaming madman being shot, I assume you like that, because someone acting prideful failed?
Well, I can think of a popular example of prideful people failing. Nazi germany. They were very prideful and arrogant. Believing themselves better than everyone else. Naturally, everyone else wanted to see them fall. And they did. And ever since, no white dares to say in public that he is superior to another race or culture. Does that make you happy?
>I'm just curious if you think they did us a favor with banning that subreddit.
Maybe. Now you and me are here and elsewhere. Could it have happened otherwise?

Maybe you should watch this movie instead of drawing arbitrary conjectures. It tells a lot about good and evil, and sin, if you can "read between the lines". There's much more than "someone acting prideful failed" to it.
I think you're starting to get mad because you don't get your point across, and you start to attribute made up shit to me, as a result.

>Pride, however, can degenerate into something abhorrent. Athletes cheat and injure others in order to achieve success and bolster their pride. Coaches can become controlling and abusive of athletes as they seek success and enhancement of their pride. Parents meddle into the affairs of coaches and abuse their children in the pursuit of athletic success, their means to enhancing parental pride. Pride can be the motivation for antagonistic actions as individuals compete for the social standing, fame, and riches associated with athletic success.
That's the part of pride that christianity warns about, that greeks warned about
Pride is an emotion
>Does that make you happy?
You really should quit with that misplaced "grudge", it has no place here

Alright, people in the pursuit of success can injure themselves and others. I agree.
But what about the people who avoid pride? Who are humble? Who despise egoism, pride, arrogance?
Do they cheat? Do they injure others?
For example, I think we both can agree that Biden comes of as far more humble than Trump. Does that make you trust Biden more to play fair?
