htxt.co.za
Upvoting violent content in "a certain timeframe" will now earn Reddit users a warning, and possibly worse in future.
  • Reddit has begun issuing warnings to users to regularly upvote violent content with a view to taking harsher action in future.
  • The company says that it will consider expanding this action to other forms of content in future.
  • Users are concerned that this moderation tactic could be abused or just improperly implemented.

    Let me be absolutely clear.

    The opinions and concerns about “censorship”, and just about everything else, from “Whatabout-NATO/'Murica?” apologists and fellators for the CCP, Xi Jingping, Mao, Vladimir Putin, the USSR, Stalin, the DPRK, Che Guevara, Castro, Islamo-totalitarians, drug cartels, and <insertMurderousAuthoritarianTyrantsHere> are worth less than Marx and Engels’ flaming dickcheese.

    They can all pleasure themselves in their own puckered accelerationist bungholes with their Molotov-sippy-cups that they can barely lift out of their premium-outdoor-brand backpacks.

    No matter who’s “side” they claim to be on, never trust anyone who says, “I/We are in charge, forever.” Especially, the angsty edgelords at lemmy.ml.

      What they said is that the proletariat is in charge forever, not capitalists/bourgeois/‘the wealthiest’ anymore.

      You can trust our capitalist-owned medias on whether they succeeded or not.
      To only give one example that’s not known, you’ve never heard of their imperative mandates, only about their fake elections that seemed worthless(, see #25 here)
      Not only can our capitalists buy medias, but they can also directly give money to candidates they like, and we’ll sanction/invade the countries that don’t vote for the right person, our system isn’t a model, if only because it needs so many lies to be sustained.

      The problem is that the u.s.s.r., the People’s Republic of China, and other socialist states, were too attacked by foreign actors to establish a direct democracy, so it was only direct in some cooperatives, and Lenin stated that reactionaries were powerful enough to justify having a strong state.
      It’s not in the communist “d.n.a.” though, on the contrary since ‘the final state of socialism’/communism is a stateless society.
      The gulags only existed in a period of crisis when they endured wars after wars until WW2, but we abundantly talked about it when they were already closed. If repression and control of the population was as pronounced as we say they wouldn’t have been dislocated, just ask a chinese person about their social credit score or other lies if you ever meet one.
      Et cetera…

      And islamists/muslims/theocrats are the best, no distinction between the spiritual and temporal, i won’t trust a faithless civilization or faithless people, even if most of them are great people.

      Thanks for the reply though, ++
