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.

The most absurd about this imo. is that Arabic is considered promoting terrorism, but Vikings are not.

[–] Grumpyleb@lemmus.org 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Don't you know, all us Arabs are terrorists, and anything in Arabic is immediately illegal!! FFS

Us Arabs? You're one of them! I'm terrified you're going to bomb me now on account of you being Muslim. Neo-nazi would be fine OBVIOUSLY

Sorry I can't understand you cos of your accent (as you're muslim you must be foreign, obviously). I'm just going to assume it was a jihad.

[–] Grumpyleb@lemmus.org 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Wolowolowolowolowo. (In as much as a UK educated Muslim Arab accent as possible)

[–] LadyButterfly@reddthat.com 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Mate I lolled fucking brilliant.

[–] Grumpyleb@lemmus.org 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Excellent! My Job is here is done, this world needs a few more giggles.

To be fair, only one of your examples exist in real life, why would media constantly try and ruin the image of Vikings? Ie. Roman republic and empire, loved by western culture, were basically ancient nazis.

Roman republic and empire, loved by western culture, were basically ancient nazis.

This is one of the hardest things to realize after a lifetime of indoctrination, but it explains sooo much about white-supremacist (aka western) "culture".
