News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

MODERATORS
I just don't understand why. I got it regarding a sub that has no active mods. I certainly understand if the sub is clearly exploiting or denigrating women. But other wise I don't see why they would.
Money from advertisers.
Reddit is an echo chamber filled with bots these days
So Jan 6th actual violence occurs and people die, but that's ok, and everyone no longer has to pay for that. These are threats, but nothing happened. Will they get larger sentences than those people who actually committed violent crimes? My guess is yes, and that's the only part about this that's going to be messed up.
How about social media platforms Ban everyone that calls for violence or tries to justify it. Violence has nothing to do with the left or right. It is pure and simple not justified regardless of the issues involved. If you eliminate the nuts at the extremes you have a chance for people to have a civil discussion. Step 2 would be banning those who label any who disagree with the with "names". I will never understand how people try to have a civil conversation and one participant calls the other an asshole or nazi. Of course civil conversations promote understanding of the positions of others. Points of agreement are reached. And just maybe that result is exactly what many on social media want to avoid.
Which democratic political leaders are calling for violence?
You missed the point. Calling for violence is wrong and it doesn't matter who does it. Everything in life shouldn't be viewed from a political lens.
What about the current president asking for protestors to be shot in the legs? That seems pretty threatening, especially when viewed apolitically. Where are the repercussions for that?
He also called for Israel to "get the war over with" instead of dragging it out. That seems like pretty implicit calls for increased violence. Are there repercussions for that?
There are a hell of a lot of free speech purists until it's something they do not like. A lot of violence being called for, until it's against people they feel do not deserve it. Standards are being applied differently depending on what side you're on. This isn't to say that you do or don't support the president or the things he or his supporters say, but there are clearly 2 different applications of censorship being used. One side has 0 restriction and celebrates it, and the other side is dangerous and needs to be silenced at all costs.
If anyone is directing comments to OP - don't bother. I just posted the video for discussion
