As many of you know by now, the button has finally drawn it's last breath. I predict that many will stop paying attention to button related reddits, but I want to remind you all that with every end comes a new beginning. I will run this reddit as long as people are willing to keep going, and promote peace between each other. Let us not forget the friends and foes we made, and the reddits that came and gone. I hope if you did have foes, you can reconcile with them now. Because this new beginning is important. What you do after the button's death is important, because if you do nothing, did it really mean anything?
Remember the button. And may peace reign.
PS: It ended on my cake day ^_^

You're certainly welcome. I'm the last person who would keep a grudge over past conflicts of the button.

Yeah, some people can get a little uh, over-exited to put it mildly :P
I followed a rabbit hole from a chaos legion subreddit. What was this community about?
I hope everyone remembers what the button stood for and what it did for us as a collective. Many may be dismayed by it's passing but truly the button's end gave us the gift of enlightenment.
The wars, the harsh words and the anguish that we have seen was all a product of our own personal beliefs. The button showed us our own minds and gave us a means to relay those thoughts to others' minds in a new way.
What I'm getting at is that even after all these unsuccessful attempts at peace, and war-making undertones we can see that this has been operated by the inner workings of your own minds. It is the psychology that is flawed and my only wish is that one day, you will come to understand that.
After you do, I know we will see a society that is so much richer for it. I look forward to those days.
Thank you for reading.
yeah by putting them in concentration camps
Be calm your watch is over.
I'll never stop watching over my colored brethern
I still believe that /r/59s was a much better place post-conversion and while a little brutal in it's execution, could still be the prototype for how a perfect world operates itself.
It was a haven of common-sense for those who want true peace and understood what it would take to get there.
Comparing it to the Nazi concentration camp, Auschwitz, may have been a small error as much as I hate to admit it.
I still believe, though, that the message we conveyed is real and right.
The place was about the re-education of pressers such as yourself.

I agree, thankfully though I don't believe any of this. It is just a game.

Au contraire, my beliefs are those of /r/NoColoreds. What we want for is a perfect world where there is only peace. To attain this utopia it is you who must give up the false sense of justice you have placed your faith in and then we can re-educate you, or anyone who is willing.
Being an ironic asshole, still makes you an asshole
Indeed, the button has taught us all much. The human experiment...
It showed us how over such a simple thing as a button, there were groups of malignance, greed, pride, how in the face of imminent loss we resorted to darker and darker arts. Going from organized groups, to Autoclickers, then finally to necromancy.
It also showed us the good in people. People helping and supporting each other, dedication and loyalty.
racism, tolerance, murder, abstinence, aide, justice. The button showed us all the human race, with all it's good and bad, and everything in between. RIP button.
I encourage to bring the wiki of the /r/ChurchOfTheButton to your people as your perspective on the button would be greatly appreciated.

You don't run Reddit! You're a phony! A big fat phony!
But seriously, they're called subreddits.
I thought something good would come out of it instead it just seems it was reddits idea of a massive circlejerk that we didn't get anything on our profiles.
