Reddit could soon punish users for upvoting violent content.

The amount of censorship taking place on that platform every day lately is kind of staggering.

I can see simply voicing dissent can result in a ban on Reddit. Has happened easily to me and likely others. Fuck Reddit.

I was banned for saying fascists need to be hung, appeal rejected. While you got that r/conservative sub and others like it being well, fascist and calling for Liberals demise.

Seems to me Reddit is a OK with hate speech as long as you hate the right kind.

I ate a three day ban for talking about the morality of killing Hitler if you had the chance. In an animorphs sub, because that happened in one of the books.

'It's Hitler. He Dies.'

I got banned from r/politics in 2019 by replying to

We should treat Trump exactly how he treats immigrants.

with

What do you mean, shoot him?

Appeal wasn't ignored. Instead, it was mocked.

So yeah I'm going to get banned. But not before I poison their AI data pool as much as I can.

In theory that doesn't sound so bad, but in practice, what are they actually labeling as violent and does some violence get a pass?

There have definitely been inconsistencies in the past where certain types of violent rhetoric gets a pass but other content that even comes close gets axed no question.

I hope it's not to silence proofs of israeli crimes

[small44@lemmy.world]

Is it exactly like reddit technology sub

[db2@lemmy.world]

Can't have anyone taking about the abuses going on, it makes Glorious Leader look bad.

As always, fuck reddit.

What if i think «guillotine » is the most beautiful word of 2025? I know some would argue Luigi should be first here, but i stand by my conviction.

[technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.com]

Hegemonic violence, state violence, capitalist violence...

These will continue to not be acknowledged as violence.

[reksas@sopuli.xyz]

violent is the new harmful

[skullgrid@lemmy.world]

fucking normienet. why not punish users for overthrowing democracy and spreading misinformation , being bigoted and everything else that got us in this mess?

[arin@lemmy.world]

Violent is what people in power want to oppress. Right to abortion ? VIOLENT! DEI? VIOLENT! Workers rights? VIOLENT !

[fauxliving@lemmy.world]

You can't expect Reddit moderators to have the bravery of a hawk

[lodemike@lemmy.today]

Because that generates ad revenue

[ianhclark510@lemmy.blahaj.zone]

Shit site full of mentally handicapped pedos is shit, who’d have guessed?

Funny enough, I just made this account after getting banned from reddit for reporting violent content. Apparently it constituted "abuse of the report button", go figure.

[singletona@lemmy.world]

In fairness. Most Hawks don't have the bravery birdboy had.
