Just another way to allow hateful right wing content to stay up while punishing users who aren’t retarded for upvoting Luigi memes and saying trump is a fascist etc

What else is new on Reddit? They should just pull the trigger and make an official bigots only policy like twitter

The exact wording seems to be "banned content", which includes a lot more than just violence (is violence banned in the first place, considering subs like r/PublicFreakout?).

Yeah tbh if it were just violent content I'd be fine with that. I still don't trust Reddit as a platform anymore, but I'd be 100% understanding of the rule.

Banned/Removed-by-Admin content, though? That's absurd. That's way too broad.

Guarantee something like posting a picture of Luigi will be considered banned content promoting violence.

Edit: Called it

Well tbf most of those are unless you're saying "I don't think this is the killer" or resharing a news article. He's not celebrated for pacifism.

Its still not as bad as how Twitter works. If you wanna say “kill all the (group)” you just search for someone else who wrote it and then retweet that. Then if someone challenges you, you just say “not my words bro”.

also saying Luigi can be considered flagged too.

So if you know what the word "commie" meant during the cold war, "tankie" means the same thing, just said by people who don't want to seem like elderly boomers

Radical centrists who want a form of socialism where everyone is oppressed by the state, thereby combining the ideas of the left and the right.

Pretending that is not tankie behaviour 😂😂

In case you're wondering what's considered "violent content" on Reddit and how far they'll push this definition, calling the top 10 breakdown of healthcare CEOs "Luigi's List" counts.

In general, aligning with Tankies for any reason, ever, will just trigger a reactionary bias against whatever message you're promoting. I'm not saying I dissagree automatically, but it's the opposite of helping your case.

When Tankies agree with a statement I have to stop for a moment and reassess how that statement can be used to maim and destroy western democracies or if they're just making another show of pretending to have morals.
