and mod muted for a month for no reason.
I agree, RFK should stop telling people to kill themselves by ignoring modern medicine.

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.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

MODERATORS
Internet forum user knowingly breaks rule. Gets banned. News at 11.
I've reviewed the community rules of PoliticalHumor and, unless suicide counts as violence because it is self-harm, no rule was broken. As it stands the multiple mentions of violence in the rules are ambiguous.
Normally if a post breaks a subs rule, they tell you and just remove the post. This was with no warning.
Yes, very sad.
unless suicide counts as violence
What? Of course it does. Overcoming a bodies' will to life is an inherently violent act. No amount of consent or dignity will change that. And the Scandinavian escape pods are hardly the norm. Both people I know ate pistols.
there are forms of suicide that just involve stopping the breathing process or the heart, of which neither is violent. Rules regarding violence should always be conservative in their application, aka if there is a non-violent interpretation why wouldn't that be the intent.
Odd. Cause nazis are not people anyway. So that “rule” cannot apply.
No, even Nazis are people. They may be horrible people whose hateful ideology needs to be forcefully purged from society, but they are still people.
Do you know how otherwise same people turn out just as bad as Nazis? It starts by dehumanizing their opponents.
(That's not necessarily a statement in favor of the Reddit action, that was likely done by a bot anyway so no humans were involved.)
Israel is good proof of that.
Recognizing that Nazis are people is necessary in order to understand how people become Nazis. Understanding how people become Nazis is necessary in order to fight Nazis.
I agree. Human rights and dignity are not negotiable. Not for mass murderers, rapists, Nazis, or Jeff Bezos. Not for anyone. Disagree, oppose, undermine, fight, but do not ever dehumanise.
Tbh I'm astounded that politics in the past managed to get that thought reflected in law and constitution. Not guilty until proven otherwise. In dubio pro reo!
Nowadays, I would not expect that much rationality from most people.
A few years ago I went for a walk and in front of me two left leaning people were talking to each other: "I'm looking forward to Saturday" the girl said to the guy. "There is a big Nazi demo in the next big city and I can't wait to punch an Nazi"...
So in what way are you better then the Nazi, I thought.
It always starts with dehumanizing the others... then you can do whatever you want to them, without thinking about the suffering you created
Nazis are people who should instead be flowers.
Mod muted for a month isn't for no reason. They likely have a zero tolerance policy about this and don't want to hear from you about it because they will not reconsider.
I got banned from there for cross posting.
For the best due to how awful most of their humor is
It was probably the KYS initials.
Just say the YS stands for "you suck" lol
Be nice to terrible people
I'm not really sure that moderators moderating is particularly notable.
