Hear me out...
Our counterparts at r/beantowntrees do not want to merge. That's completely fine. As you can see in the picture, they have their reasons.
I was smoking, playing some NHL and thinking about the post and what their mods said and it hit me...why not be that sub? They want to be the wholesome community builders, which I admire. Why not being the Yin to their Yang and be the rebels, shitposters, and pranksters. Fuckin Massholes. The counterculture to their culture. We named ourselves after the Boston Tea Party, embrace being an antihero. This will give a distinction between both of our subs
This is not to say I don't want our community to be weed based at our core. That's what brought us to r/bostontrees in the first place. We found a large community of like minded people who wanted to discuss our favorite herb, and alot of us were wrongly exiled or no longer trust the community because of the actions of the mods. My though is, maybe if our community is big enough and loud enough, it will bring all of their actions to the attention of some of the higher ups at reddit to the point where they will have no other choice but to act and strip the mods of their power. If we're lucky it'll be a ripple effect and the other subs they control will also be given back to their respective communities.
TL;DR: Smoke weed, question authority.
