Just received an official warning from reddit when I posted the following comment

"Boo hoo, Elon. You stole an election, costed thousands of people their jobs and did untold damage to the federal services that protect people in this country but the second your stock crashes you start crying about how mean people are to you? Go fuck yourself"

That's it, apparently not liking musk is now a violation of the rules.

Reddit is compromised and to quote RATM: Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me

Reminds me of grade school again. Get bullied, nothing happens. Fight back, get punished.

Only in this case the school is Reddit, the bully is DOGE tearing the country apart, and fighting back is posting memes. What a world.

Happens here too. Try calling out the Russian trolls

My god is there even a reason for this? Musk doesn’t own Reddit but spez just sucks it up like a doormat. At this point reddit is more censored then x. I don’t even care i just want it to make sense.

Remember, spez openly said he idolises Musk back during the API debacle that lead many of us to Lemmy.

[–] webghost0101@sopuli.xyz 9 points 2 days ago

Imagine seeing someone as disgusting as Musk and thinking “I want to be bottom”

Shivers

Reddit has always been this way. You're only just now taking notice. It seems to be accelerating in severity though.

I've had dozens if not hundreds of accounts over the past 15+ years. Around 2016 is when things severely accelerated. All my accounts gradually got whittled away. I have none left as of several years ago. Political replies that hurt conservatives feelings will inevitably land an account ban for trumped up reasons (no pun intended). At the very least enough subreddit mods will (shadow)ban you until it becomes a useless account. Most people don't check or notice if their accounts have been ghosted.

The founders of reddit are "free speech absolutists". Translation: right wing bad actors. Their whole world view is one where they aren't overtly conservative. oh no of course not. They're open minded "centrists". You're allowed to say what you want but if they don't like it they'll surreptitiously silence you. This is their whole game. Don't ask me why they're this way though. Sociopathy maybe?

Keep in mind. spez is the one who said we must have "valuable discussion" with r/the_donald even though it was the biggest hive of trolls the internet has ever seen. At this point does anyone even know about all this anymore? It's as if that whole period of reddit got memoryholed.

Anyways the simple reason to you question is they are, without hyperbole, fascists.

That's it it's that simple. I don't know why people aren't getting it... Haven't been getting it. That's what I want to know. How has nobody been seeing all this?

Huffman and Musk are the same kind of person. Only spez has been at it and under the radar for far longer. He didn't suddenly pivot. He didn't fall under pressure from Musk. There's no doubt in my mind he's more than gladly doing this. Though I bet he thinks Musk is too obvious about it. spez is far more discrete.

It is quite amazing to see so little reporting on this. One single article about elon "emailing reddit ceo" but nothing about the pattern of silencing critics.

He deplatformed fucking asmongold after he finally covered the POE2 cheating. Nazi propagandist, asmongold. Elon had his blue check removed and accused him of being controlled by his editors, and everyone just moved on. Meanwhile, elon moved onto silencing redditors like a competent Ethan Klein.

I juat awitched from reddit. Im only mad that it took so long. It didnt like me using a vpn. Then stuff like this. Yea I'm good.

Welcome to the club.

They are trying to eliminate liberal spaces online everywhere they can. The timing of their actions with regard to Elon purchasing and corrupting Twitter and Trump starting up his two minutes hate platform Truth Social are pretty suspect. It took a while for the liberals to leave Twitter and right as liberal influence on the site was at its lowest, they held the election. They solidified support for right wing media while destroying spaces for left wing media. And it worked.

Remember the time when spez celebrated that Elon Musk bought Twitter? I'm not surprised considering that they're the type of people to have a blowjob and suck each other's dicks every day.

[–] LavaPlanet@lemm.ee 7 points 2 days ago

What Elon doesn't in any way register, because he's a prissy little spoilt brat who was told he's amazing and smart and better than everyone, growing up, (even though he's none of those things), is that every dollar he has, was given to him by millions of hands, of people. If the people turn on him, that stops. He's done enough to evoke hate across the planet. It's impressive, how world hated he is, and he hasn't even personally spearheaded a genocide, as is usual, for this level of hate.

[–] Fingolfinz@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

Musk probably has evidence that spez is a pedo

[–] Zentron@lemm.ee 6 points 3 days ago

As RATM said on BBC .. i love that video

[–] JokeDeity@lemm.ee 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Reddit has been compromised for nearly a decade, but every day there's 10k learning it I guess.

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

The day they killed 3rd party apps was the day reddit died.

[–] cortex7979@lemm.ee 4 points 1 day ago

Fuck the cry baby musk

[–] CompleteScarves@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

Reddit got no loyalty to me. I got no loyalty to reddit. Tell me where people are discussing interesting content, and I'm leaving reddit.

[–] WrenFeathers@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I mean… stomping around the corridors of the Death Star while shouting at everyone that Darth Vader is a dick isn’t going to earn you a lot of praise.

I’m not sure what you expected to happen, but the response you got is exactly what I would have expected.

[–] Manticore@beehaw.org 1 points 2 days ago

Well I wouldn't attribute to malice what you could attribute to ~~stupidity~~ AI bullshit.

Reddit is a bot farm generated by LLMs and moderated by AI. You used the phrase 'fuck yourself', and a dumb little AI thought you were targetting another user.

Reddit is definitely doing a lot of suppression, no doubt about it. Luigi in particular. But like... ya should've seen that one coming, mate.
