Reddit remove posts that has their names in the headlines(in my experience posting there). Is there is a way to mention them without saying their names?

BTW: Lemmy rocks for not implementing a censorship system like Reddit did.

I followed the lead of the young staffers in the Biden White House, and called him HitlerPig. I usually call the other one The Goblin. People usually know who I'm talking about.

I've actually broken my own anti reddit role since the Alex murder. I upvote and comment on everything anti ice and pro people standing up to this shit.

We need to flood everything and everyone with a unified message.

Fuck spez, but this goes beyond that.

If you are liberal, or just a decent human being you need to flood all social media with the truth and downvote argue with all the fascists.

[–] pirate2377@lemmy.zip 6 points 2 days ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

I would, but Reddit banned me for being a "security risk" after I started security hardened my browser and apparently they prompt you to login when you use a VPN :/

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 day ago

Similar issue, I usually just get instantly banned for advocating violence against fascists.

I was going to suggest Cheeto and K-man

Cheeto is a classic, I just try to stay away from physical attributes, if Bernie started wearing a bad hairpiece and a spray tan I’d still vote for him

[–] capuccino@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

KKK-man. Just imagine him with 3 bottles of ketamine

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago

adderal and ketamine fiends.

I've settled on [REDACTED]. Everybody knows who I'm talking about, because everybody knows that they redacted him from the Epstein files.

[–] Archangel1313@lemmy.ca 9 points 2 days ago

Orange Mussolini and Elmo Muskrat?

[–] Dorkyd68@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

There are plenty of posts that contain both names on Reddit.

Were they really removed by the reddit admins or by subreddit moderators? Did you get any message about it?

If your posts included slander, a human might have reported you. That can happen just as easily if you use recognizable nicknames.

[–] Manifish_Destiny@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago

Fat orange fuck and that Tesla douchebag are my go-tos

[–] palordrolap@fedia.io 7 points 2 days ago

DJT. The Big Cheeto. Fatty CIC. Narcissus Egregious. King Fake News. Forty-seven. Diaper Don. Wiggy. The Annoying Orange.

Elongated Muskrat. Trillionerk. X marks the clot. Emeraldus Egregious. King Grok. The least-nice South African. EM Interference. Plugs. Mr Makes-everyone-leave.

[–] radix@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Sounds like an automatic thing, so any nicknames or euphemisms that catch on would just get added to the list.

That said, it all depends where you want to fall on the respectful/rude spectrum. I'd go with rude: "The most unpopular President in at least 150 years" is both accurate and specific to Trump. "The owner of xAI, the world's leading distributor of CSAM and NCII" for Musk. Longer descriptive statements are harder to auto-block without catching a lot of false positives.

Titles should be short and to the point. That works if your phrases are the whole title. But not if you want to add any actual information

[–] massive_bereavement@fedia.io 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Epstein's best friend and Apartheid nepotism kid.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago

arnt they both epsteins best friend.

[–] Nemo@slrpnk.net 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

"our current President" or "the current US President"

I refuse to use his name myself, so I'm pretty practiced at this.

[–] fruitycoder@sh.itjust.works 2 points 7 hours ago

The Administration is a euphamism I like because it includes all of those that should be fucking tried for human rights abuses

[–] givesomefucks@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Staying off social media owned by fascist techbros is a better choice...

It doesn't matter what you think you're accomplishing there, the reality is you're just a punching bag and without you they'd fight each other which divides their base and depresses their turnout.

[–] Beep@lemmus.org 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I understand your opinion fully.

But I still like to participate in discussions with wide variety of people, which at least currently are simply not available on Lemmy or Digg as far as I can tell.

Here on Lemmy there is only one type of people, Leftists. Usually it would be fine for non-political topics, but it sucks when it comes to any political topic. because you don't see a political discussion here but rather one opinion on repeat.

That is at least my opinion on that.

[–] givesomefucks@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Buddy...

If you think we're all "leftists" then the only differentiater you're looking at is support of fascism, and there's even a couple fascists, so that can't be it.

Most weeks I get called a neoliberal, a commie, and everything in between.

There's room for nuance here, and there's never room for that when fascists are in the room. You leaving Jack's up the percentage of fascists, which scares off people who don't care about politics.

I know I just said:

It doesn’t matter what you think you’re accomplishing there, the reality is you’re just a punching bag and without you they’d fight each other which divides their base and depresses their turnout

And you ignored it, so I said the same thing with more words, kind of a hailmary on my part.

because you don’t see a political discussion here but rather one opinion on repeat.

Then disagree with people...

I do it all the time, sometimes I get heavily downvoted, sometimes I change a couple minds. But you can always just be the change you want to see

Elongated muskrat

[–] meejle@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Always been quite fond of Melontusk. The name, not the person

And The Orange [blank] works well, e.g. "The Orange Horror". Maybe even just "The Orange" tbh.

[–] hector@lemmy.today 2 points 2 days ago

Huh I never knew that. I got a violation once for saying we should've put Musk on one of those rockets they launch in space. Nothing about involuntary or anything. They said it was advocating violence and denied an appeal. I guess given how many of his rockets explode it's logical to assume anyone being on them is likely to get blown up. Still it's quite a stretch to violate someone for that, I think.

[–] andrewrgross@slrpnk.net 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Honestly: my first thought is to figure out how to make your point without mentioning either.

I know I'm not there default Internet denizen, but personally I'm absolutely sick of seeing their names and taking about them, because so much of it is ineffectual rage bait. It misses the plot.

I don't need to hear more about their personal failings. I know what kind of people they are. What I need to to know about are their victims and their challengers: the people who need protected and the people finding success protecting them.

Based on my experience, Reddit isn't limiting their names. Every visit is a deluge. I have to wonder if your posts are just failing to grab attention in New for the usual reasons. If so, using silly 'He-who-must-not-be-named' euphamisims probably won't help.

My advice is to focus less on them than on the people and things we must focus on to parry their attacks and transfer their power to servants of public will with integrity.

[–] wizardbeard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I wonder how many people are browsing this thread to help improve their personal word filters, although the names in the title would probably hide it from anyone that has those set up already.

RES supports filters, a number of lemmy apps do, and I think piefed has it built in.

[–] 87Six@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 days ago

Damn reddit is a POS Glad I'm not on that shit site anymore Nowadays I can't even look for forum advice on it because it just says I'm making too many requests, like bitch I haven't been here in a week

[–] FinjaminPoach@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Dogal Dumps and Longy Muskrat / the lone musketeer

[–] capuccino@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Is D. T. and E. M. censored as well?

[–] Beep@lemmus.org 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I actually had never tried this before.

But I will consider doing it the next time I post.
