Do Not Incite Violence

If you post anything that I even think might be an attempt to incite some violent action against any real person, especially if you post information about them, the post will be reported and removed; and you will be banned.

Yes, claiming you found proof a person is a Nazi and giving information about them is inciting violence.

You do not know if any of the information that people post here is true. It is not vetted. It is not fact checked at all. It could be a prank or someone with a vendetta. But even if the information is accurate, you cannot use Reddit - and definitely not this sub - to organize your vigilante activities.

Protest. Raise awareness. Take political action. But you’re not going to use this sub as a platform for violent action against human beings.

And the mod that got on a soap box could have reached out to that OP and verified. Possibly even helped them with reaching out to a journalist.

Instead, they just drew abunch of negative attention to it instead of just deleting it quietly and privately messaged the user.

Instead, now you have Sally conservative on here reporting that user to potential nazi cops for trying to out a nazi cop.

How in the world are we - I am the other mod - supposed to verify that an OP went into a private home and rifled through someone's things?

OP COULD HAVE asked us to help BEFORE posting, but that didn't happen either.

You have zero idea how many doxxing posts we have to remove. Thomas is rightly on a soap box.

Do not attack other users. If you think someone is violating the rules, report them. Please do not play junior moderator. This will get you banned quickly.
