Screw Reddit (lemm.ee)

I got this message today:

We’ve been alerted to activity on your account(s) that is considered breaking Reddit’s rules. We recently found that your (censored) account violated Rule 8 by repeatedly upvoting posts and/or comments that break Reddit's rule against encouraging or glorifying violence or physical harm. While you didn’t post the rule-breaking content, upvoting content that breaks the rules is also considered a violation. As a result, we’re issuing this warning and asking you to be thoughtful about any future content you upvote. Continued violations could result in a temporary or permanent ban. Please familiarize yourself with Reddit’s rules to make sure you understand the rules for participating on Reddit. This is an automated message; responses will not be received by Reddit admins.

I'm a very non-violent person, but I guess by upvoting comments that say "-F Trump" or "-F Musk" is breaking their rules. That's such a huge red flag. Now I'm getting warnings about what probably most of the world is thinking? Great policy there, Reddit.

“-F Trump” or “-F Musk”

Bro! This isn't reddit! Here you can keep things readable so we don't have to de-asterisk/guess Therefore "Fuck Trump & Fuck Musk" will just do quite well

[-] KentKanobe@lemm.ee 35 points 1 month ago

Well, I don't swear much either haha.

[-] redlemace@lemmy.world 27 points 1 month ago

It's not mandatory (but it's allowed)

[-] picnicolas@slrpnk.net 5 points 1 month ago

I find self censorship offensive

[-] Zacryon@feddit.org 4 points 1 month ago

I'm in favour of making it mandatory in the context of fucking Trump, fucking Musk and all other fucking facists or fucking fascist-enablers.

[-] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

If you want to fuck trump and musk that's your business but don't go forcing it on the rest of us. Gross.

[-] AreaKode@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago

It's okay, and in fact often encouraged to say "fuck you" to Nazis. Give it a try!

[-] ThePantser@sh.itjust.works 16 points 1 month ago

Fuck Nazis but also you can say I hope the Nazis are murdered in glorious violence.

[-] Ceruleum@lemmy.wtf 1 points 1 month ago

Fuck yeah ...

[-] Chozo@fedia.io 51 points 1 month ago

Reddit can apparently automagically detect when posts/comments are glorifying violence and detect when users upvote them... Then why aren't they just removing the "violent" comments? Why leave them up?

We all know why: because Spez is fucking lying.

[-] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 24 points 1 month ago

Yep-- wanna bet this never applies to accounts upvoting "fuck biden" or "let's go brandon" comments?

[-] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 5 points 1 month ago

That was "political" speech but saying fuck trump is a promoting violence

Welcome to 2025 america where parasite took over the fed gov 100%

And we let them do it ... Good thing Democrats know how to be a proper opposition party

[-] RowRowRowYourBot@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 month ago

Why was I spending so much time reporting sexualized comments about minors for years on that site if they could auto detect things?

[-] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 4 points 1 month ago

The Country is ran by pedophiles since at least 90s...

[-] Lemjukes@lemm.ee 48 points 1 month ago

A message to all newcomers from Reddit: you can fucking swear here, please stop fucking self-censoring yourselves.

[-] KentKanobe@lemm.ee 33 points 1 month ago

Like I said, I don't normally swear. But just for you.... FUCK YEAH!!!!! 😆

[-] Lemjukes@lemm.ee 16 points 1 month ago

That’s the fuckin spirit! Welcome! Fuck yeah!

[-] RowRowRowYourBot@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 month ago

please remember your local laws and the laws facing your instance provider might not be the same.

[-] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 4 points 1 month ago

Which country's law prohibits swearing online?

[-] RowRowRowYourBot@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

None, but I see people arguing what is legal on my instance from time to time which is odd because SJW servers are Canadian. I see the same on .world

[-] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 0 points 1 month ago

Lemmy world admins use "legality" suppress topics like Luigi and dead parasites because they whore for the regime

[-] RowRowRowYourBot@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

.world servers are in European nations. Im not sure what the laws are in the relevant countries.

[-] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 1 points 1 month ago

The main Luigi sub is located on .world now and of seems to be doing fine..

When dead CEO happened mods on main sub's their said they could not have Luigi discussions because it it violated the EU laws

Clowns

[-] MetalMat@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Thank fuck.

[-] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

You can swear on reddit too. Just don't say L**gi

[-] medusadeluxe@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago

This is Lemmy. We can say it loud and proud here: LUIGI!!!!!!

[-] sit@lemmy.dbzer0.com 42 points 1 month ago

Here on lemmy we say Fuck reddit 👍

[-] Litebit@lemmy.world 34 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Don't forget to leave very bad review on how terrible their app is, lack of privacy, crashes and etc. Only talk about the app features and nothing else if not they can remove your review.

[-] MoonlightFox@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Can they remove a bad review without text?

[-] Litebit@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

don't see any reason they would remove that.

[-] rtxn@lemmy.world 28 points 1 month ago

Calling something "literall 1984" is trite, I know, but this is pretty damn close to getting charged with wrongthink.

[-] WhatAmLemmy@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

It won't be long until the US rival the CCP for censorship and persecution.

[-] samus12345@lemm.ee 24 points 1 month ago

One of the most blatant thought policing policies I've ever seen. This China or Russia style shit.

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 1 month ago

Welcome to Lemmy, here are a few pointers to help you settle in

[-] Zacryon@feddit.org 9 points 1 month ago

While they hurt countless of lifes and get glorified for who they are, they are trying to silence you for speaking up.

I'm so glad I've quit Reddirt back when those API pricing changes happened. Fucking facists.

[-] InverseNurse@lemm.ee 6 points 1 month ago

Apparently, writing an inspiring post about taking action and ways to protest was just too much for the delicate sensibilities of the internet overlords. I was banned for “inciting violence” and when trying to check their content policy, its conveniently no where to be found.

Who knew that encouraging people to stand up for what they believe in was such a radical concept?

[-] Lucky_777@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Welcome!!! It's way better here, enjoy some freedom!

[-] Hello_there@fedia.io 5 points 1 month ago

Finish the job by editing all your comments and posts to say: "Luigi spez"
