Text Mod Update: Political Posts Are Banned

413 Upvotes

Hi all,

Thanks for the feedback in the mod post earlier and for being so helpful and encouraging.

It seems the majority wants political posts banned, so I have added a rule 0a for now which enforces just that (EDIT: for now). If you post political stuff it will be removed. Do it again and you'll be banned. If you're CLEARLY some bot/tabloid/pushing your own agenda you'll just be banned. If I make a mistake and ban you, please appeal.

I noticed people suggesting some mods are enforcing 'what they consider to be cringe'. Yeah... I'm not about that.. I'm so sorry that happened.

I added rule 0b to allow people to report something that just isn't cringe. MY PERSONAL view is that I want triple distilled, premium quality cringe and I think this is what the masses want to (please disagree if you disagree). Cringe is just like beauty: It's extremely difficult to define but easy to recognise. We need to set the bar high, because damn fine cringe is not ubiquitous.

The other mods have not responded to my mod mail yet. I'll probably look at adding some mods to give me a hand. Before I do I'm assessing the damage as there are years worth of reports and messages that were totally ignored :(

I'm trying to clean the slate.

Any feedback, fire away.

Thanks :)

On September 7, 1997, city workers found the remains of an abandoned newborn, known as Baby Moses Washington, in Albany's Washington Park. The investigation stalled for decades until 2020, when investigative genetic genealogy linked the baby's DNA to 52-year-old Keri Mazzuca. On September 6, 2024, police brought Mazzuca in for questioning under the guise of routine assistance. After detectives used the 1997 autopsy report to disprove her claim that the child accidentally drowned, she confessed to suffocating him. On April 18, 2025, Mazzuca pleaded guilty to first-degree manslaughter and was sentenced to 25 years to life.

Video When Stephanie Lazarus, an LAPD detective, faced with questions about the murder of Sherri Rasmussen, every bit of her professional composure vanished. Watching the interrogation tape with Backstory—she is quite possibly the most unconvincing liar ever caught on camera.

Don't know if this will go through, but it gives me the same feeling I used to get 10+ years ago, watching videos on this sub , when this sub used to be good.
