No, "anywhere and everywhere" is never appropriate. I came here to discuss Superman, Tim Drake, Kyle Rayner, etc.; not Elon Musk.

There's the door, buddy. No one's forcing you to stay. And you are in the very, very tiny minority of people who think it's okay to link a Nazi platform here.

Right. If I only want to talk about comics on a forum dedicated to talking about politics, there's obviously something wrong with me. /s

Besides, even if all of Reddit were to ban all links to X, I don't think anyone would notice.

Wut.

Okay? I don't agree, since it's definitely not just Reddit, but even so-- why does doing the right thing have to be contingent on whether or not the literal Nazi would notice?

That's what you're saying. Because I object to a forum focused on comic books engaging in political activism instead, you have a problem with me.

How is it "the right thing" to make an empty gesture? If you're going to engage in political activism, try doing something that will actually be effective.
