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
Here’s my new thing.
All the people with critical thinking skills are leaving in droves. Leaving a massive bot farm authoritarian echo chamber in its wake.
As far as they’re concerned we’re the problem and it solved itself.
The banhammer is pounded quite randomly over there.
I was banned for harassment. I followed 6 accounts that posted tons of misinformation about elons nazi salute.
They’d defend him at all cost, call everyone else sheep, “Roman salute”, he’s autistic, you’re such a n idiot for hating on him. Posted still frame images of anyone with raised hands and claimed them to be identical to nazi boy Elon.
I got a notification every time they posted something to a sub I frequented. I would comment their recent post history and how their most extreme lies in defense of Elon.
Reddit said that was considered harassment. Not what those accounts did, but my action to their posts and comments. Spez is such a fucking spineless cunt.
This guy has so much power over the United States and so many people are okay with it and some even support it.
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.
Elon's gonna get shot one day
The peace in peaceful is not of the "peace and war" kind. It's of the "peace and quiet" kind.
Important distinction.
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?
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.
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 ; )
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.
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.
Fuck reddit.
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.
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.
Elon Musk ~~'s assets~~ should be liquidated
Fixed that for you
In a solution of 1/3 35% hydrogen peroxide and 2/3 98% sulfuric acid.
Says the pussy who backed down from Zuckerberg cuz his mom told him to
God, what an insufferable Nazi cunt.
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”
Arguing for the appropriation of billionaires' assets is not violence.
What do you mean by Elon Musk’s assets should be liquidated?
Also, Reddit and X have very different moderating policies.
He is such a teenager. It's embarrassing.
#stonerthoughts
This should show Americans how billionaires perceive "peaceful protests".
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.
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????
