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.

I'm not getting in to the Musk debate, I'm quite frankly bored of it, just let me know if he does it again.

I'm only here to defend freedom of speech.

I'm just here to defend freedom of speech.

Ensure you understand it first:

'Freedom of speech is the right to seek, receive and impart information and ideas of all kinds, by any means.'

https://www.amnesty.org.uk/free-speech-freedom-expression-human-right

Thus my point that freedom of speech is not a freedom to lie or a freedom to spread hate or encourage violence (this is a general point, I am not referring to your views in particular).

Honestly, that's very insulting and I don't appreciate the insinuation. I know very well what the freedom of speech entails and I donate monthly to amnesty international.

All I would say is that you picked up a very odd example to defend the "freedom of speech".

That's just the thing, freedom of speech is for everyone, not only the people you like and agree with, this conversation has come full circle now.

Where is this one coming from now?

I think the prior comments provide adequate context. I've said everything I have to say on the issue and I'm bored now. Have a nice day.

So where was this one coming from now?
