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.

Don't promote violence ... against your fellow slaves.

Get off the fucking road and hurt the people responsible.

except he didn't

the CEO (forgot his name) was only a player. The ones responsible are the legislators that make (or refuse to make in this case) the rules.

[–] spacebetweenstars 3 points 2 weeks ago

not sure i would agree with this necessarily, given that many of these CEOs are the reasons the laws get made in the first place with their lobbying. definitely feels like an effective message was delivered. if only we could get on delivering it 16 or 17 more times

I don't think I can drive into the C suite of a high rise building Fast & Furious style due to physics existing.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 2 weeks ago

not with that attitude

Seven Eleven was a part time job

[–] 9point6 1 points 2 weeks ago

I mean it's a terrible movie so don't take this as a positive review, but:

Bruce Willis drove a car through an airborne helicopter in Die Hard 4, there's always a way with enough pent up vengeance.

[–] [email protected] 32 points 2 weeks ago (20 children)

I don’t like the attitude behind it, but taken by itself, the phrase “all lives splatter” is kinda funny.

Still, you’re a dick if you put this on your car.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

It's a riff and disparagement of the saying "Black Lives Matter", which in and of itself rules out any funniness, imo. That it's about threatening violence against pedestrians just makes it worse.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

Could be taken as a riff on “all lives matter”, the racists’ retort to Black Lives Matter. But then you’d need to have tiki torches and klansmen being run over.

Because advocating running people over totally isn't encouraging violence 🙄

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 weeks ago

Not running people over, running poors over

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

Assuming the mods name relates to the sub name.

The sub exists to make fun of those people sharing their message with silly stickers.
The redditor actively doing the same (obviously not just making fun of the car owner).

[–] [email protected] 27 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

So obviously this sticker and mod are fucking awful, but it's worth keeping in mind that, if you're at a protest or even just crossing the street, it doesn't matter who's right when it comes to a car vs the human body if push comes to shove. I've seen protesters (rightfully) call out a car for trying to push through them, but they also started mobbing the car, which in turn panicked the driver who then recklessly sped off. Thankfully no one on foot seemed seriously injured, but it made me wonder what they thought was going to happen by surrounding the driver like that. Protest away, but keep your safety (and others) in mind, too.

[–] 9point6 24 points 2 weeks ago

Oh, well I guess I hope this mod gets nonviolently hit by a car

[–] AA5B 8 points 2 weeks ago

Kind of funny, in a dickish way

… but it would be karmic if it were used to establish intent

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

As seen on the back of the New Orleans rampager's blood spattered carnage truck.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago

This looks photoshopped but i don't know why. The bottom line of text has no warping while the top line + image have more noticable warping.

How to get your vehicle keyed

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

Won't somebody please think of the cars?

[–] leadore 3 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

So the woman who in frustration said the "DDD, you're next" words to insurance company denying her claim is charged with terrorism, but this is fine? even though a lot more non-CEOs have been killed this way on multiple occasions including last week, compared to that one CEO killed in an act that wasn't even terrorism.

[–] kitnaht 2 points 2 weeks ago

Don't promote violence ^^against your fellow man^ CEOs are Okay though, they can afford security^

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Funny but I saw the original post and I’m pretty sure the point was to mock or chastise the person who had this bumper sticker, not celebrate it. So it doesn’t seem inconsistent to allow it while also removing that comment.

[–] someguy3 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Maybe this was said ironically.

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

Or literally: Mod was saying “you must not promote violence; you must commit it”.

[–] Zonetrooper -2 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Forgive me if I'm missing something, but... how is this related to Reddit?

[–] kitnaht 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Did you miss the part where it was posted to Reddit?

[–] Zonetrooper 8 points 2 weeks ago

Yep. Apparently I'm blind. Nevermind me.
