and now here - and both times you/ve recced your own OP, and on this GD version, currently that's the only rec it has. Forgive me if I detect an agenda and concerted campaign.

I've rarely and only ever very selectively visited Reddit, and then only very briefly, though I know it's the source of many internet memes, some fine, some really unpleasant and downright sinister. The fact a subreddit has done this - which implies some of its members posted or linked the content referred to - is maybe of some interest.

Only the admins of DU can take such decisions, so you can post as many polls as you want, it won't stop many of us sifting though Twitter, like any other online source, and posting on DU what we consider worthwhile. If EarlG et al. decide to impose a ban, that's what'll happen. So far, they've shown no inclination to do so.
