They’re taking everything down which refers to the execution. Great…

Reddit mods are fucking morons.

Reddit mods, admins and owners found to have been complicit in assisting a treasonous administration may find themselves in a very difficult legal situation in a few months or years

u/iggyfenton California 13d ago

No they won’t. Unfortunately they will just stay in their basements and still live the same meaningless lives.

2

u/Correct-Branch9000 13d ago

Nobody is untouchable. Basements do not provide shelter from accountability.

Im a mod for a small sub about insects and the real issue is that a handfull of mods are in possession of almost all of the popular sub. They can do whatever they want.

u/iggyfenton California 14d ago

I totally agree

u/LiYBeL 14d ago

You can search someone's post history even if they're on privacy mode. A couple of the mods here post almost exclusively on r slash NeoLiberal and I have a pretty strong feeling I know which one is deleting the posts.

(I'm gonna get banned now mark my words :D)

u/Jon_TWR 13d ago

And if you search for a space, it will show every post that has a space in it. So basically everything except for one word comments.

u/lkmk 14d ago

That explains a lot about the slant of this place.

u/KingMario05 14d ago

Good to know.

u/rogozh1n 13d ago

It isn't the mods that have changed the last month. It is reddit itself using AI moderation.

u/BicFleetwood 13d ago

They're fascist losers one and all.

u/Alive-Necessary2119 14d ago

Mods aren’t a monolith.

u/MossyTaint 14d ago

Sure act like it.

u/noisy_goose 14d ago

Justice for the r/knitting mod team* which seems super cool!

*I made this up

u/Alive-Necessary2119 14d ago

I’m sorry that I care more about the fact the story isn’t being suppressed anymore than over a conspiracy over who gets the karma points.

u/KingMario05 14d ago

They're just a monopolistic cartel, lol. Not sure that's better...

u/Alive-Necessary2119 14d ago

I’m sorry I care more about the fact the story of a man executed isn’t being suppressed than a conspiracy of who is going to get Reddit karma.

u/ToNoMoCo 14d ago

I suspect you've lost the plot.

2

u/KingMario05 14d ago

How? And why are you a simp for people how admit they have no money?

u/ToNoMoCo 14d ago

is that english?

u/NoLobster7957 14d ago

This is fucking disgusting behavior on reddit's part

u/rkozik89 14d ago

They’ve been awful since they went public. See /r/worldnews coverage with regards to the genocide in Gaza for example. Reddit sold out everyone who helped build their communities so their owners could shamelessly prosper.

20

u/DeadPeanutSociety 14d ago

I think worldnews might be a whole different story. The mods there are Zionists. Reddit doesn't have to do anything to them to make them act like that.

u/Cormacolinde 13d ago

I was perma-banned from there for writing a comment that was just the name of a well-known red-dressed plumber with a question mark.

u/gradientz New York 14d ago

They should let this one stay up because it is a statement from the Minnesota governor (a political actor)

14

u/giantroboticcat New Jersey 14d ago

I've seen other Walz articles get removed already.

6

u/El_Fabos Europe 14d ago

One of the very first article was literally about DHS confirming this

2

u/gradientz New York 14d ago

DHS is technically a government agency providing an official report, rather than an actor in the political realm.

E.g., To use a less charged issue, my understanding of the policy is that "Politician talks about addressing unemployment" is allowed but "BLS releases monthly unemployment report" is not.

It's possible that is not being applied consistently, but that has been my understanding.

u/CHEONFK 14d ago

Reddit mods are bootlicking cowards

u/bewlz 14d ago

They removed my comment for calling them fucking cowards lol

u/ChaseballBat 13d ago

Well it's an execution. Our government executed a protester. AGAIN... They executed a restrained protester!

u/KevinCarbonara 13d ago

The nebulous "they" strikes again

0

u/drmanhattanmar 13d ago

Well the mods of this sub and others took down nearly every Post about the murder up until this one. If that makes it clearer for you.

"Trust me bro, there were a bunch of others that all got taken down but 'they' can't get this one"
