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.

What's your favorite Iron Man scene from any of the Marvel Movies?

Fun thing to do is when you realize 99% of the internet is just advertising teams working for these rich fucking A hole's, is you make them work for their money but posting things that PR companies would hate. Just culture jam the hell out of the dead internet. Its the only way to be. Its what makes places like r/joerogan and r/thefighterandthekid so much fun.

When you start seen memes from the same IP all of sudden...

Examples of what? Marketing teams? Check out a company called bent pixels.

To see it in action, check out r/marvel.

As far as culture jamming it goes, I don't have many because it gets your account banned pretty fast.

Site wide ban as well, not just a particular sub.

It’s funny how Reddit is banning more genuine people everyday and letting the bots run wild.

It'll get worse everywhere in the internet until we return to books and printed media again because we don't know what's fake and what's real

just quote one here, or make one up. I also am curious to know what "culture jamming" even means.

Because I was also curious. In short, I think it's essentially saying shit that calls out advertising bullshit in an overt way while using the format that advertisers do.

Kinda like the magic glasses in the old movie "they live" but more colorful. Image for context:

Thank you - but I am somewhat oblivious how the poster that mentioned this term thought that this would "get your account banned" fast.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Yeah I have no clue on that honestly. I feel like I see that kind of thing happen on Reddit and here frequently enough, and my experience has not been seeing people get banned about it.

So there's trolling which is just being a dick. Culture jamming is more about sending a message by using a lot of weird social behaviour and culture norms to throw a wrench into the mix. Sacha Baron Cohen did a bit of it more satirized. But the kings were "yes men saved the world"

Wow. This is absolutely awesome work. Kudos to The Yes Men. Fuck megacorporations and fuck this dystopian capitalism we live in.

Thank you for this great illustration, and I am all for it (culture jamming) if that's how it's done properly.
