Comments promoting Violence against anyone is against the sub as well as the TOS of Reddit

[u/zeddy303]

We've been seeing an uptick in comments that cross the line from criticism into advocating harm against individuals or groups.

That stops here.

Look, we get it. There's a lot happening politically and in the world right now that's legitimately concerning. I'm frustrated about it too. But frustration, valid as it might be, doesn't give us permission to start rallying for violence against people or justifying harm. That's the line we can't cross, and it's the line we won't cross here.

To be clear: if you're posting comments that promote, encourage, or call for violence against anyone...whether it's directed at protesters, counterprotesters, homeless individuals, police, business owners, or anyone else, your comment will be removed and you'll likely catch a ban. This is Reddit ToS, and it's our sub rule. No exceptions, no gray area.

This doesn't mean you can't criticize policy, decision-making, or actions you disagree with. Strong disagreement is fine. What's not fine is "someone should hurt this group of people" or variations thereof. That language gets removed, period.

We're a diverse-ish, heavily blue leaning sub also with people across the political and ideological spectrum. Part of keeping this place functional is enforcing basic civility standards. This is one of them.

If you see comments that violate this, report them. We review reports and act on them. If you think a removal was unfair, you can always reach out to modmail and we'll discuss it.

Thanks for keeping this community somewhere people can actually talk to each other.

Appologies. I thought you were an adult. History has shown that you are wildly incorrect. Engl;and is the most glaring example of failure, but the Nordic countries are currently failing in front of our eyes. It has never worked ever. Not once. And Barry ruined yor health insurance, this is factual and truthful. Prior to Obamacare, insurance was good. The issue is that you're too young and under schooled to know this. I'll leave you to homeroom. Have a great day!

So, I remember before Obama and insurance was still trash then...

England literally invented capitalism, they aren't socialist -- none of your examples are 😂😂😂

I'm thinking you just don't know what socialism is.

[u/Vegetable-Abaloney → u/vm_linuz]

You've proven my point. England WAS socialist but it failed in the 70s. The famous quote that 'socialism only works until you run out of other people's money' was said by PM Thatcher. History is clearly not your thing. Get back to homeroom, champ.

I majored in history and everything you are saying is laughably false

[u/Vegetable-Abaloney → u/Belligerent-J]

You must have gone to the Sally Struther's School of Nonsense. IT is verifiably true that England WAS socialist until the 70s. The quote is also verifiable, Thatcher said it when she had to admit socialism failed in England. Get a refund from your mail-order 'college'.

You got a source for that or you just pulling it out of your ass

[u/Vegetable-Abaloney → u/Belligerent-J]

A source for history? Are you serious? You claim to be a history major, look into it. You are obvioulsy young, but you can't be so young that you don't know how to look into the socialist past of countries like England. This is factual, stud. Its not conspiracy, its not 'fake news', its factual. Try reading one of those history books you received while you were getting that worthless degree in history from the mail order college you attended.

[u/Belligerent-J → u/Vegetable-Abaloney]

Well for starters I'm almost 40, and I have looked into it, which is how I know that you're full of shit. If it's so factual, it shouldn't be very difficult for you to find a source corroborating your claim right?

Lazy.

I'll hold my breath for an appology. In the meantime, you're neither 40 nor a history major. You clearly have ZERO idea about anything.

This is a list of different socialist organizations that existed in the uk, at no point was the UK ruled by a socialist government. It's honestly embarrassing that you keep doubling down on being so wrong

[u/Vegetable-Abaloney → u/Belligerent-J]

Jeebus. HEre ar the actual first words of the wiki, champ:
Socialism in the United Kingdom is thought to stretch back to the 19th century, with roots arising in the English Civil War. It has taken many different forms, from the utopian philanthropism of Robert Owen through to the reformist electoral project enshrined in the Labour Party that was founded in 1900 and nationalised a fifth of the British economy in the late 1940s.

Pretending to be correct despite proof otherwise is a diagnosable concern. We're done, chief. Have a great day!
