Reddit just banned r/The_Donald, the largest pro-Trump subreddit, as it cracks down on hate speech

Reddit also banned one of my favorites, r/consumeproduct.

 

Most Conservatives would agree -- Democrats are extremely Totalitarian. I lived in USSR -- there was nothing of that sort.

I thought the older generation was "strange" as they feared the jokes about Communism which younger people made. Older Generations remembered the time when Political Correctness was enforced in USSR.

 

More blacks have died protesting police brutality this year than have actually died of police brutality....this year. and you’re worried about Reddit? Really?
Stupid is as stupid does.

 

What is Voat? Just wondering, I am probably clueless.

Rule 1


Remember the human. Reddit is a place for creating community and belonging, not for attacking marginalized or vulnerable groups of people. Everyone has a right to use Reddit free of harassment, bullying, and threats of violence. Communities and users that incite violence or that promote hate based on identity or vulnerability will be banned.


What is identity or vulnerability?

Rule 1: Remember the human. Reddit is a place for creating community and belonging, not for attacking marginalized or vulnerable groups of people. Everyone has a right to use Reddit free of harassment, bullying, and threats of violence. Communities and people that incite violence or that promote hate based on identity or vulnerability will be banned.

Marginalized or vulnerable groups include, but are not limited to, groups based on their actual and perceived race, color, religion, national origin, ethnicity, immigration status, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, pregnancy, or disability. These include victims of a major violent event and their families.

While the rule on hate protects such groups, it does not protect all groups or all forms of identity. For example, the rule does not protect groups of people who are in the majority or who promote such attacks of hate.

Some examples of hateful activities that would violate the rule:

• Subreddit community dedicated to mocking people with physical disabilities.
• Post describing a racial minority as sub-human and inferior to the racial majority.
• Comment arguing that rape of women should be acceptable and not a crime.
• Meme declaring that it is sickening that people of color have the right to vote.

Additionally, when evaluating the activity of a community or an individual user, we consider both the context as well as the pattern of behavior.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Based on the Content policy: inciting violence against any group or individual deemed to be a majority is explicitly deemed acceptable?

Am I reading that wrong?

 

Like celebrating the fact that men are dying of COVID-19.

Banned subreddit lists:
1) Here
2) Here.

 

LOL

Trump really broke the left.

 

Sadly, Leftist Totalitarian Censorship is winning.

 

At the moment but they always overreach. There will eventually be a backlash.

 

In USSR early 1930s they predicted that Totalitarianism would not last long. It lasted three decades. Post-Stalin USSR was not Totalitarian.

Maybe in 2050, Censorship will subside.

 

In that case I'm moving to Barbados.

 

Hopefully China can set up Social Media to undermine Totalitarian American Society.

 

Have to agree with anything that stops the Propaganda coming from the right. That which Brietbart, Bannon, Trump, and the cronies want to call free speech. It is pathetic at best, problem is so many are too dumb to GET IT.

 

QANON is where they belong anyway.

 

Really?
You frequent reddit do you?

Then you should have plenty of examples.

 

Wrong, they cant deal with Lying and PAID for Propaganda from 50+ RW think tanks. There really are not that many racists out there, many white people just in the middle watching from a distance. Some are gullible enough to read the meme's, garbage from the thinktanks as NEWS. Which it isnt. it is paid for garbage.

 

You know only the gov't can violate free speech laws. Not private businesses.

And you calling for the gov't to halt free speech is what the constitution is against. So why do you want the gov't involved in private business just trying to make a $$$?

 

Why, do you think American RW is incapable of setting up there own?

 

Hopefully either President Trump or China can set up Free Speech Media, where people from USA can be presented with all views.

 

I hope they can, but anything is better then nothing.

 

As long as the gov't doesn't do censorship all is well.

Pvt business can do all the censoring it wants. If it helps them make a $$$. That's capitalism at work.

 

1: They hadn't posted anything at the r/the_donald in about 4 months after they had moved to their own forum because they saw the way the winds were blowing. Which is that leftists are targeting anything pro-Trump. Which means Reddit just banned a channel for no reason other than TDS. Before this banning they (Reddit) had put r/the_donald under a quarantine where it would not show up at all unless you specifically typed in their url. That happened roughly a year ago.

2: Good to know that you support censorship and do not support peoples right to free speech.

 

QANON exists today.

This company is trying to be RW only twitter.


Parler, a social media site marketing itself as an “unbiased” alternative to Twitter, promises users “the right to express your thoughts, opinions and ideals online.” But there’s a catch: If Parler gets sued over something you post online, the company could make you pay its legal fees.

I hope Leftist Totalitarians will not win. Only time will tell.

It would even be better if China set up Social Media to destabilize Totalitarian USA.

 

tRUMP is blocking or wanting to block China.

TikTok is quite popular. And chinese.
In fact, much of Tiktok was used to troll the tRUMP rally in Tulsa with kids acquiring event tickets and not going.

So, maybe you might want to rethink a China company and it's social media.
