News and Discussions about Reddit

Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules


Rule 1- No brigading.

**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **

YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.



Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.

**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

Got my ban yesterday for expressing my displeasure with Danielle Smith. Reddit has sold out

[–] Haess@lemmynsfw.com 3 points 6 hours ago

Smith is such a fucking joke.. I grew up in Southern Alberta, I'll never ever return.

The irony here is that violence is a necessary action when the bourgeoisie (Billionaires) leaves the working class no other option. But what he's saying is that state violence is justified to maintain the status quo.

Is it just me or are other people giving fewer and fewer fucks about why somebody got banned on reddit, or anything else that happens on reddit?

[–] Kirk@startrek.website 3 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

I'm loathe to defend Reddit's moderation decision but my experience you can never trust the person being banned to explain why they were banned.

Elon's gonna get shot one day

[–] Skymt@feddit.nu 5 points 9 hours ago

The peace in peaceful is not of the "peace and war" kind. It's of the "peace and quiet" kind.

Important distinction.

[–] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago

The only reason I still have a Reddit account is to leave comments telling people to leave Reddit and join Lemmy. I just find posts on or near the front page that are complaining about Reddit and leave the same comment every time.

[–] dumblederp@aussie.zone 21 points 14 hours ago

Fuck reddit.

[–] Phoenicianpirate@lemm.ee 1 points 7 hours ago

Really? Fuck that shit. Good thing I deleted my reddit account. I technically have one that I just use for porn. But I sure as hell am not posting anything with that shit.

[–] bampop@lemmy.world 45 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 16 hours ago) (3 children)

Ironically, what Musk posted is perfectly acceptable ( in and of itself, ignoring the context of the person who is saying it ) since violence or the threat of violence is sometimes necessary to prevent things getting worse. For example, "Ukraine should be helped to defend itself" is a call for violence.

Which is why it's such a bullshit excuse to ban speech for that reason alone. I got banned for suggesting France might help out the USA by shipping over any surplus guillotines. I'm sure they would have no issue at all if I were enthusiastically advocating genocide. Never mind, I needed a push to make the move to Lemmy ; )

[–] Phoenicianpirate@lemm.ee 5 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago)

My ban from reddit was 100% related to calling for the arrest and judicial execution of netenyahu. Which is not an unreasonable thing to say given that he is nothing more than a modern Hitler.

I will take it back. Netenyahu should not be tried at all in any court. But simply tied up, have the charges read against him, and promptly shot through the head at point blank range.

[–] freely1333@reddthat.com 13 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

The line is state sponsored violence, generally. Likely with a little bias on what state is on the giving and receiving ends of said violence. Thats the rule at least so far as I can tell, at least.

[–] bampop@lemmy.world 3 points 16 hours ago

I think you're right, but that's even more concerning. A fully fascist take on what is acceptable speech.

The oligarchy owns 90% of social media so it's no surprise

[–] Shayeta@feddit.org 2 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

You're wording it as if we shouldn't be outraged anyways.

Elon Musk ~~'s assets~~ should be liquidated

Fixed that for you

[–] Phoenicianpirate@lemm.ee 3 points 7 hours ago

In a solution of 1/3 35% hydrogen peroxide and 2/3 98% sulfuric acid.

[–] buzz86us@lemmy.world 11 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah i don't post anymore since reddit turned into 1984

Says the pussy who backed down from Zuckerberg cuz his mom told him to

[–] Asafum@feddit.nl 12 points 22 hours ago

It's good to be the king.

He doesn't have to be the one actually inflicting the violence on others, but with his power and influence he is capable of great violence by making others carry it out in his name.

Fucking billionaires... :/

[–] El_Azulito@lemmy.world 25 points 21 hours ago

God, what an insufferable Nazi cunt.

[–] alkbch@lemmy.ml 13 points 20 hours ago

What do you mean by Elon Musk’s assets should be liquidated?

Also, Reddit and X have very different moderating policies.

[–] jjjalljs@ttrpg.network 35 points 1 day ago

He is such a teenager. It's embarrassing.

[–] tabarnaski@sh.itjust.works 39 points 1 day ago

#stonerthoughts

This should show Americans how billionaires perceive "peaceful protests".

[–] andros_rex@lemmy.world 157 points 1 day ago (10 children)

This is the same kind of thing the 19 year old high school dropout with two kids he doesn’t have custody of posts on Facebook. Like “the devil whispered in my ear you can’t handle the storm and i said i am storm”

[–] theacharnian@lemmy.ca 66 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Arguing for the appropriation of billionaires' assets is not violence.

[–] blady_blah@lemmy.world 14 points 21 hours ago

This feeds into the right-wing fantasy that they're super tough warriors. You see a lot of literature and fictional TV aimed in this direction.

It's kind of like the white savior complex but instead of saving some victimized minority, they're saving weaker and more helpless individuals in their own society. But all the military hero returns home and confronts nasty biker gang or evil drug dealers and kicks their ass without when trying. It all reinforced their world view.

[–] Clinicallydepressedpoochie@lemmy.world 28 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

That makes no sense. You can totally call yourself peaceful if you are peaceful.

Who doesn't want to be harmless? Who would want to cause harm????

Elon isn't capable of anything resembling violence. He's a skinny fat pussy.

That’s gotta be the stupidest thing I’ve ever read.

What a great fat wet lettuce of a human. He's only capable of paying other people to do his dirty work.
