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.

Advocate for antivax bullshit that kills people? Sure! Encourage politicians to stop live-saving cancer research, gut the VA, and reduce safety standards that will have more people suffering? Cool beans!

Oh, you don't like that and want to voice your opinion? GFY

My country is about to strap a guy to a chair and have 3 government employees fire a gun at him. And that's fine.

I commented supporting Canadian boycotts of American goods - an economic protest and it got removed by Reddit admins for “glorifying violence”

[–] theneverfox@pawb.social 69 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Don't you know, it's considered violence to use economics against the rich, that's only allowed against the poors

A while ago as a test I literally just typed “guillotine” without context or anything. Perma banned my 5 year old account.

If you thought Reddit was anything but on the side of Elon, Thiel, and the Nazi plutocrats, you haven’t been paying attention. And it will get worse and worse as time goes on.

They’re trying to control the conversation to the point that the Overton Window embraces open fascism, and it’s working.

Why do you think we're here? Reddit is dying

[–] Chozo@fedia.io 56 points 3 days ago (8 children)

Why do you think we're here?

I think that depends largely on somebody's "join" date. If they're under 6 months old, they probably got banned/censored from Reddit. If they joined in the last 6-12 months, it's probably because of Reddit's AI policies. If they joined 12-18 months ago, it was probably due to the API changes shutting down third-party apps. If they're older than that, then they're probably just tankies.

[–] MelodiousFunk@slrpnk.net 28 points 3 days ago (4 children)

Joke's on you, I'm on my third account.

(Defunct instance, left due to mods, now here.)

Anyone else think chocolate is great? I love to eat the rich, dark kind for dessert. It's a delightful way to end a meal.

My account got banned about 2 weeks ago for three days saying if you were were a republican you voted for a Nazi and fuck Nazi's.

People don't realize it but Reddit is working on suppressing everything as well. This plus the soon to be paywalled information. This shit is on purpose.

[–] DaveyRocket@lemmy.world 21 points 3 days ago (9 children)

Are you telling me the president’s closest advisor doing double nazi salutes to a cheering crowd and his other closest advisor doing a nazi salute to another cheering crowd isn’t just a coincidence? Next thing you’ll tell me is Musk likes the name X because he enjoys drawing the rest of the swastika.

Wow. Back when I lived there, I never would have expected that I wouldn't be able to say eat the rich.

But saying eat the rich on Reddit is like a tradition.

This will probably piss off a lot of soon to be lemmy users.

I got a 7 day ban for mentioning that someone managed to make Musk's AI say Musk and Trump deserve the death penalty in a thread shitting on Musk's AI. I tried to appeal the ban asking how mentioning this was "promoting violence" and I got permabanned with no explanations. Reddit has become a fucking cesspool.

I love how Reddit has been supporting the right side of American politics since TD was a thing. Spez is such a pos coward.

I'm just going to assume every billionaire pulling this shit for trump has an unfathomably disgusting record in the Epstein files. There's no way that every single one of them is deciding to be this overtly fucking pathetic.

This sheer irony of that on boring dystopia

[–] LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 29 points 3 days ago (12 children)

Is eat the rich generally a call for violence? I actually don’t really know what people mean when they say this.

[–] Gold_E_Lox@lemmy.dbzer0.com 51 points 3 days ago (11 children)

it is a slogan calling for an eradication of the extremely influential and powerful, to redistribute their wealth and return it to those whom it was stolen from.

Your submission has been removed as it advocates wordplay and the potential use of a thesaurus. Education and signs of intelligence are against the interests of the rich.

Eat the rich doesn't mean literal cannibalism lol

Just let us seize assets above 999 million, and its a peaceful transition to more egalitarian society.
