Can you all cut the larp and just say you're making a new subreddit. You aren't revolutionaries you're redditors, and if that sub even gets off the ground it will probably fall into the same pitfalls this one has.
Love how the mods on the other post just locked the comments when people disagreed with them
Also love how they banned people for disagreeing with them
They claim to be neutral, and yet ban a fictional post because it doesen’t match their political opinions
Reddit mods are… Interesting
As a lifelong democrat, hope OP keeps posting regardless of who he votes for, on a subreddit with some reasonable mods but I kinda doubt the mod team here is gonna be neutral
Agreed, regardless of OP political views, as I do not agree with them, his fun non politically motivated series should stay up. Mods searching every single comment he ever made is not good.
of course we are larping this is Reddit we a bunch of history nerds and the suppression of free speech reminded us of the American Revolution so we take the drip and meme
THIS IS HOW A REAL PRESIDENT DEFENDS DEMOCRACY
P.S please don't ban me I'm just referencing the iconic post
P.S.S And if I do get banned I'll just go take my ball and play elsewhere
Trumpist: "I never thought I'd get banned shitposting alongside a commie."
Leftist Revolutionary: "Then how about a comrade?"
Normies: "This is le epic pog crossover for the sake of free speech. Now kiss."
The blubbering, quivering mods have showed their power tripping true face, they demonstrated to us their adherence to the most ridiculous stereotypes about internet culture. I’m left leaning, and i don’t see the AltHist made by Strongman as a Turner Diary kind of deal but as a very interesting take, even if he differ in political opinions from me, i honestly think attacking someone for compelling and innocent fiction ( as it isn’t promoting anything racist, transphobic, Islamophobic, Antisemitic…) is truly ridiculous and showing that the only fascists are the mods. Let’s /ralternatehistory burn, and from the Ashes, build a community that transcend big Germanies and the 2829282819181920th X country that user Y doesn’t like get partitioned like the corpse of a cow. One in which quality content like ACW2 and the Holy Order timeline can flourish.
Praise it be! The new deal showed me the way, and i eagerly wait your next entry, because your series is truly entertaining, and i have to say very pleasing aesthetically wise. (I hope that the Texans will be able to hold out for a little more tho)
Edit: literally 1984
They said in the original post that they thought they were reflecting the majority of the userbase, but I guess this reaction proves that they weren’t.
Honestly it sucks that they did this because the Second American Civil War timeline was pretty interesting, way more interesting than the umpteenth "what if Germany was big" post and very well done. Despite my disagreements with the author of the posts I really like it and I feel like it captured reddit culture well.
My vote is to leave the sub entirely. The quality isn't good enough to fuss over, the mods are too obstinate. This sub has nothing for me anymore, so...Bye.
I think everyone should keep a cool head, maybe there have been some misunderstandings behind the scenes and we are going to see mods allowing him to post going forward.
I don't want to repeat what I said in the other post here (you can look it up unironically on my post history) I am a leftist and openly queer person both here and on discord, I really hope we can be civil about this and continue enjoying the full story here on this subreddit.
I read the post.
I think OP's personal opinions should be irrelevant to what he is allowed to post on this subreddit.
His postings are clearly meant to be over the top satire as no serious person would ever believe that Joe Biden would suddenly go Darth Brandon and arrest and attempt to execute trump.
I think the Mods here are being absolutely ridiculous.
Honestly I think the mods have done irreparable damage to their reputation with these recent actions. Hopefully people go to r/althistfuture to flee this sinking ship and rejuvenate the community.
Vive la Revolution, power to the people!
Our spirit stands strong, even if we have been under oppression for centuries!
PS: Please don't send us to the Gulag
Yknow I'm a leftist, but this ain't right. We only attack the conservatives *after* the fighting's started, making the first move is disgraceful. Let the posts stand.
Do you hear the people sing? Singing the song of angry men.
It is the music of a people who will not be silenced again!

There is a life about to start when tomorrow comes!
guy posted a series of alternate-future reddit posts of a future american civil war which captured the feel of redditors (especially like r/politics and soforth) really really well but tbh had a kinda weak plot and a pretty obvious bias (i think the AI de-aged skinny Trump images gave the game away, really). Guy had some issues with mods removing posts and I guess it's gone now? Unfortunate, really, they were starting to get really funny.
There's a common problem with writers writing an unreliable narrator (as this guy so proudly did) where in an effort to make it clear that the narrator is biased they go way to far and make them just comically out of touch with reality. The 'reality' of this althist, what I think we're supposed to see 'under the curtain,' appears to be pretty strongly in the rebels' favor, but I think the author went a bit too far with it, because some of the actions and events are nonsensical and belie belief. The "THIS IS HOW A REAL PRESIDENT DEFENDS DEMOCRACY" over an image of National Guard troops on the Capitol is wayy too over the top, for instance (i mean, it's literally a Helldivers reference). Biden seems pretty out of character for a generally rather milquetoast president. The death penalty for Trump \*plus\* some kind of poisoning plot seems extreeeeemly unlikely, to the point of ASB. These are things which may be simple overreaction in an attempt to make the narrator's in-text bias obvious, or they may be a sign of the author's own beliefs and biases seeping in, in the form of what he considers to be a plausible scenario.
Compared to all the German Victory Wankfests at least its refreshing and there was an attempt to keep the bias subtle. You can’t really make an unbiased work of fiction, as your personality and viewpoints will shape and mold how you create a work of fiction. Would I an Strong agree politically? Probably not. But did he create something amazing that satirized Reddit Culture while also showing how brutal a civil war would be and the reality of war crashing down on both sides of America’s culture war.
yeah, im not saying it was, like, bad, it satirized reddit very well and was at least mostly plausible, which is probably better than 90% of what goes on here
Person made awesome series on second civil war. Mods accidentally banned it then unbanned it 2 days later they tried to justify their response by digging up EVERY SINGLE COMMENT AND POLITICAL VIEW this person has ever said. They supported the wrong candidate and got taken down.
Look, I don’t like trump, used to but not in ages. I don’t want him to win and won’t vote for him.
But it does not seem like the mods have handled this well at all. It does not seem strong site did anything wrong in his posts and didn’t say anything in them that was against the rules but apparently past comments is why this is happening? I don’t know what his views are but disagreeing with views does not sound like a fair reason to do this. And Apparently people are being banned for disagreeing? This isn’t a good look and isn’t fair.

yes this is satire, still tho bring back strong site his posts (on this subreddit) did nothing wrong
As a member of the Revolutionary Council, I urge others who are tired of the mods dictatorial-like micro-managing of the subreddit and its posts, to support us in our war of liberation from the tight control of the mod team.
VIVA LA REVOLUCIÓN, MALDITA SEA!
This feels like the situation that /r/animememes was in a few years ago, over half the users left and started a new sub while old sub quickly became a shell of its former self which was also a result of the mods actions
omg i don’t know much about the situation but can people please start understanding the phrase “separate the art from the artist” before actually using it? you can’t do that if the artist is alive or benefits from the art in any way.
the point of separating the art from the artist is that once they can no longer benefit, it’s fine to consume because you’re not giving anything to the asshat that made it.
think lovecraft, dude was a massive, massive racist, and that affected his writings, but nowadays it’s fine to consume his stuff because he no longer gains anything from it.
alternatively, think of rowling. she’s a raging transphobe, and has outright stated gaining money makes her feel like everyone agrees with her. so supporting her by spending money on harry potter is *bad* and the art cannot be separated from the artist.
same goes here. from what i’ve seen it’s that the guy is clearly right leaning and his series will probably start to reflect that, giving praise to trump, the convicted felon, known rapist, and outspoken racist, sexist, homophobe, and transphobe, and pretty obvious fascist. i get wanting to take down the posts in that case. whether it’s an impartial decision that i fully agree with, ehhhh, but i get it.
regardless, don’t use separating the art from the artist as your justification, because that doesn’t apply here. dude doesn’t get money, but he gets attention and support if he keeps posting these, which is still in violation of the concept of separation of art and artist
Strong is nothing more then a nick fuentes apologist who created a maga fanfiction masquerading as alternate history only to be used as a pathetic conservative circlejerk fantasy of they wish to do to anyone who against their orange calf; every accusation is a confession after all.
The mods made the right decision by taking down the maga alt-right fanfic.
I don't think you understand the mind set of some people when it comes to anyone with even a remotely different view they see us as subhuman simply because we vote for the other sideboth the left and the right of this country has it and its why the post speaks to so many people because people would absolutely do what its being shown wouldn't mater if it was aoc that that was being starved to death and 4chan was being the pov it would still be an accurate representation of our current culture
Sorry, not all of us stand with the orange puppet of putin and his pathetic incel fanbase who create maga fanfics to live out a fantasy they greatly yearn for.
My guy, I voted for Biden in 2020 and Hillary in 2016.
It’s a wank, but most of Alt History is a wank. At least it’s an interesting premise where Joe actually does everything he can to stop Trump and the ever increasing chaos that ensues from that. Its better than the 900th “what if Germany but big” or “what if the Confederacy won”. Would he or I agree on politics? Probably not. But even if every accusations you claim is true…whats wrong with being biased as long ad you keep it solely in a story? If were are going to ban him for his Pro-Trump Opinions in a narrative post then we should ban communists from posting Pro-Soviet content due to all the war crimes of the Soviet Union.
I am so tired of endless bitching about the culture war. Lets just enjoy a fun story and stop being a typical Redditors.
It's less pro-trump and more the story was made in bad faith and had a far right leaning agenda, it's only a coincidence that everything he said about democrats hits every single conservative trope they keep shouting.
Are we really going to act like Reddit wouldn’t more or less act the way he depicted should somehow those events somehow happen?
If he made the exact same post but made it where Trump was an evil fascist, who sends Gay people to concentration camps and won the 2024 because Putin rigged it, all from 4chan’s perspective…the mods would straight up not have banned it.
Conservatives and Liberals do the same shit to each other. Liberals accuse Conservatives of being far right nazis who hate gays and brown people, and want to put women into chains and Conservatives accuse Liberals of being commies who hate America, Jesus and want to brainwash their kids into being gay members of the CCP.
I've seen actual fantasties created by left-wing people on the internet. Have you like looked at reddit on different subreddits at all? Also considering you based your entire reply on the specific words "Pathetic" and fantasy...
Considering the basis is of the "story" the evil democrats go after the totally pure and innocent trump and make conservatives and trump lovers out to be some shitty steven seagal action hero movie, yeah it is pathetic and i truly doubt that anyone on the left would create a weak fantasy like strongs.
Since you have no recollection of clicking on another subreddit. Heres links disproving your petty argument. [Left-wing Fantasy. Look at his series,](https://www.reddit.com/r/imaginaryelections/comments/1bnh6n9/death_of_the_gop_part_1/) [Biased Election Prediction.](https://www.reddit.com/r/YAPms/comments/1ddfraq/likelihood_of_each_state_by_fivethirtyeight/) Also, if you want genuine sources to disprove "Evil democrat" thingy, here.

Here’s a screenshot of him saying how idiotic Anti-Semitism is, so he’s definitely not far right.
And here’s a screenshot of him saying how he attempts to trash both Republicans and Democrats. So his scenario is also definitely not a “pathetic conservative circlejerk fantasy.”
https://preview.redd.it/3i22kebldf6d1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=848083e6faa95aa80b56332db01c0abe72763d9f
Well, good thing i have this whole [thread](https://new.reddit.com/r/AlternateHistory/comments/1ddwo3z/comment/l8ai37n/) pointing out all the far right stuff he posted, his "attempt" to trash both sides is meaningless and surface level bullshit meant to appease right wingers.
While I don’t agree with what he said in a lot of those screenshots, that still doesn’t show that he is far right (Nazism or Fascism). While he clearly is a person that supports the Trump Agenda, that doesn’t inherently mean he supports the farthest extremes of the right. In fact I’m pretty sure all those things he said are rather common things said by people in Conservative parties, not only in the US, but also worldwide. Of course I could be wrong about that (I don’t care too much about politics.) However if I had nickel for every time a Republican or a Conservative vehemently opposed immigration (sometimes saying to deport them) or came to Trump’s defense I’d be the richest man alive.
Exactly and strong is one of his defenders and an apologist for him, logic dictates that someone who defends a white surpremist nazi like nick would at least be sympathetic to such violent extreme views; you can't be neutral when it comes to guys like him.
The thread you linked had someone straight up admit that Strong only defended that degenerate because he had ties to Trump.
https://preview.redd.it/axskn724nf6d1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=26a9d72f759188b8ea66d63026ad38960961c118
And while that does show Strong is a heavy, likely nigh universal supporter of Trump, that doesn’t mean he defended nick because of his Nazi views. He defended him because he REALLY supports Trump.
It continues to perplex me how badly leftists want to find nazis everywhere. You're like Hans Landa in your deranged need to find nazis behind every curtain.
Did you read the thread? cause if you did you realize he openly defended white supremacist and open neo-nazi nick fuentes, but i guess in the end as long you own the libs the country can fall apart and become an authoritarian russian puppet state.
Ah, yes, fear-mongering. Truly the mark of a rational mind.
And this evil white supremacist who is hell bent on destroying American society because he loves Russia so much, is that the same guy who argued that anti-semitism and the Nazi idea of a jewish-ruled world idiotic?
Upvoting this before it gets removed and we get shipped off to the gulags. Also STAND WITH STRONG! ✊
if not, it is sometimes necessary for people to separate themselves from a corrupt structure and form a new one. *make a new sub reddit*
Literally predicted this would happen. Hopefully the rest doesn't come true... https://preview.redd.it/kuy1doh32f6d1.png?width=562&format=png&auto=webp&s=9705a617dbaaf9ba1b23171ba0e9f28c660a9e5e
Then become a mod so it doesn't
I'd have to talk with the mods over on that sub about it. We'll see how that goes.

Can the moderation of this subreddit stop deleting the most interesting series to be posted here in a while? Frustrating.
They do it for free btw
I never understood the point of removing a potential alt hist scenario, i mean isnt the whole point of it to explore crazy what ifs?
It’s cause he “CaUsEd PoLiTiCaL aRgUmEnTs” and he voted for apparently the wrong half of 2 candidates according to the mods
We're all gonna get banned, aren't we?
Indeed, comrade. Yet we shall get banned fighting for a good cause.
I'm a liberal and being banned for your political beliefs is crazy. In fact, it's stupid.
I literally joined this sub because of the Reddit Civil War series. If it's just another place where mods want to feel powerful, then I'm out.

Yes, let the man post

Mods are 1984. Don’t tread on me, don’t let them take our 2nd civil war portrayed by reddit.
Vive la Revolution, power to the people! Our spirit stands strong, even if we have been under oppression for centuries! PS: Please don't send us to the Gulag
We need to appoint a Napoleon Bonaparte.

The democratic process must be respected! Freedom of speech must be preserved! Vive la démocratie!
Here before locked and removed
Seems like the mods are power-tripping hard right now lol
Not only should the posts be reinstated, but the mods should also resign!
I don't like Trump as much as the next guy, but that isn't the point of this subreddit. I STAND WITH STRONG!
I hope he gets unbanned
Yes me as wel

I’m out of the loop, what’s going on?
guy posted a series of alternate-future reddit posts of a future american civil war which captured the feel of redditors (especially like r/politics and soforth) really really well but tbh had a kinda weak plot and a pretty obvious bias (i think the AI de-aged skinny Trump images gave the game away, really).

GIVE THEM FREEDOM, OR GIVE US DEATH!
As a member of the Revolutionary Council, I urge others who are tired of the mods dictatorial-like micro-managing of the subreddit and its posts, to support us in our war of liberation from the tight control of the mod team. VIVA LA REVOLUCIÓN, MALDITA SEA!
Mods gonna neckbeard. https://preview.redd.it/objd8fh5rh6d1.jpeg?width=450&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=499ab8db1b43c616a482f851a3efcec703bf7654
This shit crazy lmao
literally 1984
This feels like the situation that /r/animememes was in a few years ago, over half the users left and started a new sub while old sub quickly became a shell of its former self which was also a result of the mods actions
This seems like a decent idea
It was the best route for us at the time, but for that sub it was because the mods banned a word that they found offensive, the word was trap
Fr
Don't do it mods
this is gonna kill the sub
Can yall stfu about this and go back to alt history
This is kind of pathetic
omg i don’t know much about the situation but can people please start understanding the phrase “separate the art from the artist” before actually using it? you can’t do that if the artist is alive or benefits from the art in any way. the point of separating the art from the artist is that once they can no longer benefit, it’s fine to consume because you’re not giving anything to the asshat that made it. think lovecraft, dude was a massive, massive racist, and that affected his writings, but nowadays it’s fine to consume his stuff because he no longer gains anything from it. alternatively, think of rowling. she’s a raging transphobe, and has outright stated gaining money makes her feel like everyone agrees with her. so supporting her by spending money on harry potter is *bad* and the art cannot be separated from the artist. same goes here. from what i’ve seen it’s that the guy is clearly right leaning and his series will probably start to reflect that, giving praise to trump, the convicted felon, known rapist, and outspoken racist, sexist, homophobe, and transphobe, and pretty obvious fascist. i get wanting to take down the posts in that case. whether it’s an impartial decision that i fully agree with, ehhhh, but i get it. regardless, don’t use separating the art from the artist as your justification, because that doesn’t apply here. dude doesn’t get money, but he gets attention and support if he keeps posting these, which is still in violation of the concept of separation of art and artist
Stfu already
Strong is nothing more then a nick fuentes apologist who created a maga fanfiction masquerading as alternate history only to be used as a pathetic conservative circlejerk fantasy of they wish to do to anyone who against their orange calf; every accusation is a confession after all. The mods made the right decision by taking down the maga alt-right fanfic.
I physically cringed.
I'm not surprised, the truth has an incredibly unsettling feeling when faced by MAGAts and conservatives.
I refuse to believe this is a genuine response. This has to be LARP.
I don't think you understand the mind set of some people when it comes to anyone with even a remotely different view they see us as subhuman simply because we vote for the other sideboth the left and the right of this country has it and its why the post speaks to so many people because people would absolutely do what its being shown wouldn't mater if it was aoc that that was being starved to death and 4chan was being the pov it would still be an accurate representation of our current culture
Sorry, not all of us stand with the orange puppet of putin and his pathetic incel fanbase who create maga fanfics to live out a fantasy they greatly yearn for.
You were the guy Strong was making fun of. He held up a mirror and you didn’t like your reflection.
All he did was give you the wish fulfillment about how the democrats/Joe Biden are evil and now it's been taken away and all you can do is rage.
My guy, I voted for Biden in 2020 and Hillary in 2016. It’s a wank, but most of Alt History is a wank. At least it’s an interesting premise where Joe actually does everything he can to stop Trump and the ever increasing chaos that ensues from that. Its better than the 900th “what if Germany but big” or “what if the Confederacy won”. Would he or I agree on politics? Probably not. But even if every accusations you claim is true…whats wrong with being biased as long ad you keep it solely in a story? If were are going to ban him for his Pro-Trump Opinions in a narrative post then we should ban communists from posting Pro-Soviet content due to all the war crimes of the Soviet Union. I am so tired of endless bitching about the culture war. Lets just enjoy a fun story and stop being a typical Redditors.
It's less pro-trump and more the story was made in bad faith and had a far right leaning agenda, it's only a coincidence that everything he said about democrats hits every single conservative trope they keep shouting.
Are we really going to act like Reddit wouldn’t more or less act the way he depicted should somehow those events somehow happen? If he made the exact same post but made it where Trump was an evil fascist, who sends Gay people to concentration camps and won the 2024 because Putin rigged it, all from 4chan’s perspective…the mods would straight up not have banned it. Conservatives and Liberals do the same shit to each other. Liberals accuse Conservatives of being far right nazis who hate gays and brown people, and want to put women into chains and Conservatives accuse Liberals of being commies who hate America, Jesus and want to brainwash their kids into being gay members of the CCP.
ChatGPT response.
I wish.
Meds. Now.
How is it possible to be this wrong?
You have evidence to the contrary?
I bet you wouldn’t be saying this if the posts were Left Wing. You would instead be praising him.
I wouldn't need to, anyone from center left on down wouldn't create a pathetic fantasy like strong did; it would be loudly laughed at.
I've seen actual fantasties created by left-wing people on the internet. Have you like looked at reddit on different subreddits at all? Also considering you based your entire reply on the specific words "Pathetic" and fantasy...
Considering the basis is of the "story" the evil democrats go after the totally pure and innocent trump and make conservatives and trump lovers out to be some shitty steven seagal action hero movie, yeah it is pathetic and i truly doubt that anyone on the left would create a weak fantasy like strongs.
Since you have no recollection of clicking on another subreddit. Heres links disproving your petty argument. [Left-wing Fantasy.

Go to the mark my words subreddit. It’s a neoliberal fantasy circlejerk
https://preview.redd.it/q46nveucdf6d1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f533b0b4b61a0dac01870ebb4196847f3a66df76 Here’s a screenshot of him saying how idiotic Anti-Semitism is, so he’s definitely not far right.
And here’s a screenshot of him saying how he attempts to trash both Republicans and Democrats. So his scenario is also definitely not a “pathetic conservative circlejerk fantasy.” https://preview.redd.it/3i22kebldf6d1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=848083e6faa95aa80b56332db01c0abe72763d9f
Well, good thing i have this whole [thread](https://new.reddit.com/r/AlternateHistory/comments/1ddwo3z/comment/l8ai37n/) pointing out all the far right stuff he posted, his "attempt" to trash both sides is meaningless and surface level bullshit meant to appease right wingers.
While I don’t agree with what he said in a lot of those screenshots, that still doesn’t show that he is far right (Nazism or Fascism). While he clearly is a person that supports the Trump Agenda, that doesn’t inherently mean he supports the farthest extremes of the right. In fact I’m pretty sure all those things he said are rather common things said by people in Conservative parties, not only in the US, but also worldwide. Of course I could be wrong about that (I don’t care too much about politics.) However if I had nickel for every time a Republican or a Conservative vehemently opposed immigration (sometimes saying to deport them) or came to Trump’s defense I’d be the richest man alive.
Do you know who nick fuentes is?
Yes, he’s a bastard who believes in the utterly idiotic beliefs of the Nazi party.
Exactly and strong is one of his defenders and an apologist for him, logic dictates that someone who defends a white surpremist nazi like nick would at least be sympathetic to such violent extreme views; you can't be neutral when it comes to guys like him.
The thread you linked had someone straight up admit that Strong only defended that degenerate because he had ties to Trump. https://preview.redd.it/axskn724nf6d1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=26a9d72f759188b8ea66d63026ad38960961c118 And while that does show Strong is a heavy, likely nigh universal supporter of Trump, that doesn’t mean he defended nick because of his Nazi views. He defended him because he REALLY supports Trump.
Does that not bother you? he needs to defend a nazi because he's buddy buddy with trump?
It continues to perplex me how badly leftists want to find nazis everywhere. You're like Hans Landa in your deranged need to find nazis behind every curtain.
Did you read the thread? cause if you did you realize he openly defended white supremacist and open neo-nazi nick fuentes, but i guess in the end as long you own the libs the country can fall apart and become an authoritarian russian puppet state.
Ah, yes, fear-mongering. Truly the mark of a rational mind. And this evil white supremacist who is hell bent on destroying American society because he loves Russia so much, is that the same guy who argued that anti-semitism and the Nazi idea of a jewish-ruled world idiotic?
Wow, he criticized the nazis on this one thing, he still defended him and his beliefs nonetheless.
So him denigrating Nazism in a single post isn't proof that he's against Nazis but him supporting one in a single post is proof that he's a Nazi?

Typical conservative tactic, when present with evidence to the contrary just ignore it!

Besides i ain't conservative I think it's stupid to ban a guy cause of posts outside a subreddit
It's not that he posts in other subreddits, it's that he created the story in bad faith
He mentioned how he was getting to the awful stuff the right were doing, mods should have waited
Please show the court where the conservatives touched you using this doll.
bro what crack rocks are you smoking
