She's a fair skinned Latina, not white. Whiteness is about pure European heritage. Biracial people that pass as white are still not white, for example.
Mitt Romney is white, as far as I know none of his ancestors are non-European or descended from Europeans. Does he have a Mexican grandpa I'm not aware of?

Do you think this transgender person has a right to groom other people's children into outcomes that they believe are beneficial?
If a pedo thinks back very fondly on being diddled by his uncle, does that make it okay to diddle your kid?
I don't care about groomer logic, do whatever you want to your own disgusting body as an adult but stay away from children or face the chipper

Why not just ban them? What is so horrible about open and clear moderation?
Why leave reddit only to bring the worst parts of reddit along with you? You could make something better.

If there are no sites predicting an R win or even a close win when someone R leaning googles, they may be less likely to care about voting. Seems like a no-brainer to use your control over the media to make this happen by any means necessary.

You don't have the right to expose other people's kids to any ideas the parents don't want them exposed to. Parents have an absolute veto on any random creeps having physical or digital contact with their kids and doing it behind their back via discord is disgusting.
It doesn't say anything about her father, is he native Cuban? I would assume so.
Whiteness is not a self-id thing, it's genetics. A drop of poo spoils the milk.
Meghan Markle is black. And don't capitalize it, it's uncouth

So it's a positively-spun Great Replacement narrative, as was originally claimed.

Maybe, that's true. Unsure if there have been any psychological studies on this effect, would be interesting to know for sure. However, clearly elite dems subscribe to my prediction, otherwise why buy 538 and libbify it?

People in some areas of the US have regular encounters with black bears, who are in fact pretty harmless.

Of course, it guarantees their food and rent without having to work. Women are unsurprisingly over twice as likely to be an unemployed spouse than men. See https://www.bls.gov/news.release/pdf/famee.pdf -> Opposite-sex married-couple families
Plus, fuckup women can still pull non-fuckup men. Not the other way around (as often)

I'm saying it doesn't matter what X a group of people want, if what they want results in convincing children of X behind their parents backs its an issue

The block button exists for a reason. If someone feels user X isn't contributing quality comments, they can block them. Or just downvote them if it's less extreme.
For literal spam sure I get it. But "trolls"? Such a subjective reason to open the door to redditry.
I personally will never put effort into anything in a place where I know I'll be banned at the drop of a hat. Why bother? Especially if, like you said, it may be silently hidden from everyone.
And maybe you only ban low quality dumb troll comments to a reasonable standard. But all it takes is you appointing another janny who's slightly less fair about determining who's a troll. Maybe you appoint a janny team that turns out to all be trans, and they start shadowbanning anyone who questions transdeology.
I just don't understand how groups that have been run off of reddit can still be drawn to strong moderation. I'd take a blockable troll over a power hungry moderator I can't do anything about any day of the week.

If I happen to Notice that white people seem to need less help going to college and setting up their life absent intervention than Hispanic people, and so I decide to set up the dynamic in the movie according to how I see it - the white guy helping the Hispanic guys because it'd look weird the other way around, is that "deliberate agenda pushing"?
They don't "happen to notice" that black people are criminals more often, that women can't beat men in fights, and that in fact not every relationship is interracial.
All of that looks weird, yet they persist in pushing their alternate reality. Almost as if being realistic is not their motivation

I do, seems like common sense. Why do you think they wouldn't take an action that helps them? The action not instantly guaranteeing them a win doesn't mean its not worth taking. It's one action among many

broadly the same kind of state they already live in?
The Free State of Texas is going to have MORE gun freedoms, more free speech, no abortions, no homos, no blacks, no woman votes, and no troons. It will be paradise.

The only way this will be solved is timestamped id verification, then sites can make it so you need to be a non-Indian adult to be allowed to talk on social media. Unfortunately trusting some third party id verification API is a huge privacy risk, but it'd be worth it for some sites.
This can already be done "manually" by requiring timestamped ids sent to mods but if there was a way to do it with a third party system I'd be more willing
South Americans are heavily mixed with natives, hence most of them are no longer white.
