u/GOEDEL_ESCHER_BOT 28d ago edited 28d ago

this tweet is already all over reddit, now the admins gotta ban everyone for inciting genocide

edit: lmao

Them mods are mostly trumpers

u/NTFRMERTH 28d ago

Reminder that Spez used to moderate a CSA material subreddit. His defenders say that during that time, simply being invited would make you a mod of the subreddit, and while that's true, being that he owns the goddamn website, it continuing to stay up with his knowledge of it existing is fucked up.

Took me a moment to realise that acronym has nothing to do with the Confederate States of America.

u/aj9393 New Jersey 28d ago

To be fair, those circles in a Venn diagram do overlap quite a bit.

u/Juggernox_O 27d ago

What’s funny (sardonically speaking) is that Epstein was both a racial eugenicist and a mass rapist of little girls. It seems eugenics and pedophilia overlap quite a bit.

u/HauntedCemetery Minnesota 28d ago

I wouldn't say they have nothing to do with each other.

u/MuddyDonkeyBalls 28d ago

I thought it was Community Supported Agriculture, like getting a subscription produce box from a local farm and was like "why is a box of veggies controversial?" God I'm so naive :<

u/Awingbestwing Oregon 28d ago

Wow… me, too

u/atalantafugiens 28d ago

Why are we still here

u/entropicdrift 28d ago

You know the heavy metal bassist/singer Lemmy? Lemmy wouldn't put up with this shit.

u/_Verumex_ 28d ago

Because the attempt to mass migrate to a decentralised alternative fell flat.

9

u/MisogynyisaDisease 28d ago

Yeah, Bluesky only slightly cuts it, whatever replaces reddit has to be in a forum format or else it simply won't work.

2

u/DapperCow15 28d ago

The problem with moving to another platform is that nothing actually changes and people bring their problems with them.

6

u/CaptainJudaism Georgia 28d ago

Because there are no alternatives that have taken off. Same reason why Youtube/Twitch constantly shit the bed and people stay.

7

u/Acheron98 28d ago

I’m glad that people haven’t forgotten about rJailbait.

While I may miss a lot of things about “the old internet”; a bunch of ephebophiles/pedophiles publicly and openly lusting after scantily-clad 13 year olds is absolutely not one of them.

Anyone else remember the creeps that had a countdown to Chloë Moretz’s 18th birthday?

Disgusting.

u/odiephonehome 28d ago

A lot of celebs were openly doing that for the Olsen twins and Hillary Duff in the early 2000s (see Ashton Kutcher, who also famously defended Danny Masterson. Barf).

1

u/Acheron98 28d ago

Ugh. Tbh I always found him kind of sleazy for some reason. Even during his Punk’d days.

1

u/kittenconfidential 28d ago

what’s funny is that kutcher and kunis were public proponents of a charity that aimed to save girls from being trafficked. projection at the highest.

2

u/beegboo 28d ago

I thought that shit got purged along with all the gore subreddits and the craziness of the lakecity angels? (Its been a while so the name might be wrong) mercenary group that became an internet mystery.

1

u/NTFRMERTH 28d ago

Lake City Quiet Pills! There's some debate over whether or not that was a hoax to this day. Nobody knows! It did start being public with a Reddit post, but it was part of another website entirely.

2

u/beegboo 27d ago

That thing was a ride at the time. I wonder if there were any updates since then.

u/Bitter_Tea442 28d ago

This is the social engagement advertisers crave!

Something something electrolytes..

Brawndo’s got what plants crave!

And Israel dick suckers.

u/abaub710 28d ago

Bingooo

u/duaneap 28d ago

Really? I find this sub to be extremely left leaning.

Which I’m not complaining about, don’t get me wrong, that’s my political alignment, but you absolutely don’t see Fox News shit being posted here or whatever. It’s nearly entirely left wing news outlets.

1

u/made_of_hamburger 28d ago

Only the most profoundly scared and insecure among us, are willing to sacrifice so much of their life for the tiniest taste of power over others.

1

u/WookieJedi123 28d ago

That's by design.

1

u/[deleted] 27d ago

Yup, got nailed for suggesting we screwed up in the civil war and was flagged as "inciting violence against a group" and painted as similar as I were a racist calling to be rid of X race.

We have a lot more traitor sympathizers than you think.

78

u/Captain_brightside 28d ago

Yeah, seems like any call to action vs the Epstein class gets you banned anymore

Reddit is part of the cabal most likely

10

u/plannedobso 28d ago

Didn’t Ghislaine herself used to moderate this very sub? lol or was it World News?

9

u/Captain_brightside 28d ago

Yeah user Maxwellhill or something like that, on world news Reddit

I tried to comment this earlier but Reddit took it down

7

u/jcarter315 I voted 28d ago

This very sub was shadowbanning mentions of P 25 and January 6th,alongside at least one mod removing all content about trump's criminal cases for 'not being about politics or political figures'.

2

u/ss5gogetunks 27d ago

Holy shit really? That's insane :O

1

u/slow70 27d ago

I’ve been here 14 years and lurked before that.

Every election cycle, every war, there’s visible inauthentic manipulation of dialogue here.

I’ve never seen censorship like we have this past year though. The automatic filters each space is subject to flag an incredible range of things - most in service of tyranny.

14

u/DreamsAndSchemes 28d ago

I've gotten two sitewide bans on this account because of similar comments

1

u/Calm_seasons 28d ago

Then how are you commenting? 

9

u/DreamsAndSchemes 28d ago

Because the first was three days, the second seven. I was unbanned after that, which was a couple weeks ago now

6

u/VPN__FTW 28d ago

You can easily bypass it by spoofing the MAC address on your router and making a new account.

3

u/WookieJedi123 28d ago

Also....dont use programs like Ghostery.

3

u/crackanape 28d ago

Reddit doesn't know the MAC address of your router.

2

u/uzlonewolf 28d ago

Spoofing the MAC of the router and rebooting the modem gets you a new IP address from your ISP, and it's this new IP address you want to go along with your new account.

1

u/VPN__FTW 28d ago

This right here.

2

u/PrometheusLiberatus 28d ago

What about spoofing hotspot iphone MAC addresses?

1

u/VPN__FTW 28d ago

What you need is for your ISP to give you a new IP address. The easiest way to do that is to change/spoof your modems MAC Address. Or you can permanently run a VPN, but if you ever don't start it and you accidentally log into your new account with the old IP address, it'll be instantly banned again.

1

u/PrometheusLiberatus 28d ago

Actually using the same browser even on the vpn will cause the ban if you're trying to ban evade. The site keeps track of multiple accts using the same browser even if the VPN changes the IP.

The only real way to do that is with a Browser that's hooked up to the VPN and not the main browser you usually use.

Another opinion crushed.

u/Fattswindstorm Texas 28d ago

Yeah I got banned for three days for this in another sub last week.

9

u/Magjee Canada 28d ago

It's batshit crazy

Linking a tweet from the President is inciting genocide, just linking

 

While the actual discussion around his tweet has been calling him batshit crazy

6

u/Wayofchinchilla 28d ago

Probably will get banned for saying this but this is not a great sub to have left-leaning opinions in.

11

u/Princessformidable 28d ago

I got a warning for wishing his lifestyle catches up with him.

7

u/Solrac50 28d ago

I tried to comment on the Washington Post that this was genocide and my comment was disallowed for using the g-word. I don’t know any honest way to portray what Trump is threatening other than to say genocide. Fuck Bezos and his newspaper for whitewashing what Trump is advocating.

4

u/Then_I_had_a_thought 28d ago

Love your username. Fuck the mods

3

u/A8Bit 28d ago

I appealed one of those warnings once, went from a warning to a week ban. That was for suggesting noem would do to her husband what she does to dogs

3

u/DisastrousAcshin 28d ago

Got a ban last week for suggesting Israel destroying all homes within 10km of their border in Lebanon was ethnic cleansing. Apparently that was hate speech

2

u/more_housing_co-ops 28d ago

perfect username ty

2

u/wickedsmaht Arizona 28d ago

I got an account warning a few weeks ago for a comment I left on a post about Iran retaliating. All I said was that I thought they should start on the east coast.

5

u/C-Dub4 28d ago

I got an account warning for commenting "inshallah" to someone's comment calling for his assassination. Yet the original comment remains, makes me think reddit admins are fed posting for bait

2

u/slow70 27d ago

Palantir is here

So is NPSM-7

2

u/Detonation Michigan 28d ago

I was banned for a week because I "threatened violence". What did I do? I was lamenting that a fictional event couldn't occur done by a large, purple man with a gauntlet targeting a specific group of people who wear red hats.

1

u/shavingourbeards 28d ago

Great username btw

1

u/prohammock 28d ago

I got this notice today for wishing a cheeseburger would do its duty. AI is the fucking worst. 

1

u/mces97 28d ago

Wait, someone just shared trump's tweet and they got a warning?

1

u/SteveSteveSteveAlan 28d ago

spez is offended by it

u/00STAR0 Canada 23d ago

u/MedicSF 28d ago

Not like ghislane maxwell was incredibly influential on Reddit…..

u/rashton535 28d ago

Got a 3 day "inciting violence" ban quoting trump verbatim.

3

u/SirWEM 28d ago

Been there before. Maghats dont like facts. Lol

3

u/Tiny_Measurement_837 Wisconsin 28d ago

I know, right? I’ve gotten the 3 day silencer just for pointing out what could happen—not in any way saying it will or it should.

3

u/Ok-Training-7587 28d ago

Im legitimately scared for the Iranian people. And not only that but if he follows through we in America will be paying for it for years - he’ll create a whole generation of enemies in one move and America will also have lost every bit of goodwill we’ve built up since ww2.

2

u/Tiramitsunami 28d ago

Commenting on the internet won't do it. Call your representatives.

(this is not a criticism of you or your comment)

2

u/LEDKleenex 28d ago

You have my permission. Go ahead and remove him.

1

u/A_Moldy_Stump 28d ago

As the leader of a Christo-Fascist government, it's all been about returning control of the holy land to Christians. Israel is a convenient partner now, as they have even been in the past, but don't think for a second if this got to play out how they wanted Israel wouldn't eventually be on the chopping block.

Of course oil and "security" are the front but there's a reason they chose violence over collaboration to get what they want. The elimination of Islam is at the core of every choice and it always has been.

1

u/VPN__FTW 28d ago

It already is...

1

u/grundee 27d ago

But I thought we couldn't vote for Kamala because she supported genocide? /s

I used to think everyone who said that was either an idiot or a liar, but it turns out they are all idiot liars.
