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
Not saying it’s useful, but will lead to reddit gaining users who are then influenced by the right wing bullshit they come across.
Welcome to America. I watched my dad get indoctrinated from ages 14 to 30. It started after a bad divorce and I often wonder if there was ever a real, living, thinking, adventurous, person under there. He has so many story's of his extraordinary past but I look at him today and he's just a cog collecting garbage. If I had the financial freedom he managed to weasle out through inheritance and disability I would break down walls.
Sorry, got distracted, my point is it doesn't take a rabbit hole through some reddit link to fall into conservative media. They literally pump it out into the airwaves for anyone with a am radio to consume endlessly.
If there is any hope for future generations it will be the tradition of Americans to flip the table and fuck shit up. Unfortunately the GOP co-opted those types and are winning on that front too.
Will be interesting to watch their fall from grace. The ones who make it out. No more interesting then watching the fuck ups that escape the Mormon church, or anything of the sort, though.
