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
so what's happening here?
r/India is a propaganda sub and you are not allowed to post anything that even remotely criticizes the government or points out social issues because it's against their subreddit rules. You may only post praise and admiration. You are also allowed, or welcomed rather, to shit on any other country.
Modi has a troll army, you can find them all over the internet. They are a lot like the MAGA cultists.
Hindu nationalist are indeed brain dead clowns...
But you ain't got to reach for Maga when we got neo lib acolytes right on Lemmy constantly moderating "wrong" think.
It's still an apt description, so I am confused about the point you are trying to make.
He's trying to bash his adversaries here by bringing it up on an unrelated post.
We got this behavior on fedi and it ain't maga
Have you even seen r/india? It's the inverse of what you have written. Criticising the govt is the rule there, in fact, there was a whole subreddit called r/indiadiscussion originally dedicated for meta linking of why people got banned from r/india. (r/indiadiscussion isn't meta only anymore but if one trawls through the old posts, assuming they aren't deleted, one can see the breadth of bans from r/india)
It's r/indiaspeaks that was originally formed as a free speech bastion that turned rightwing because the main sub was staunchly on the opposite side of the spectrum(and loved to use the banhammer).
I don't think I can link usernames here but a notorious powermod of r/india used to moderate r/worldnews as well and banning from once meant ban from the other.
This is simply false. Yes, r/India is a propaganda sub but it's very much anti-modi and people criticize the government all the time. r/indispeaks is very much pro-modi. I avoid both these subreddits.
