They must be desperate for us to shut the fuck up about the state of things!

    I doubt the authenticity of that supposed reward, but Reddit doesn’t want anything that bunches up the panties of its shareholders and fascist sponsors, so it permabans specific users with “violent” language.

    Is this real?

    Edit: no source shared in the reddit thread.

    I find it a bit hard to believe

    Yeah I saw that post and combing through it there is nobody corroborating the screenshot. They wouldn’t just give that promotion to one singular user without any kind of announcement, and searching for “double karma non-political content” only returns that post as a result. 95% chance this is fake.

      I do and unfortunately that comment was too political, so just the normal amount of karma for you.

      Reddit is making a political move by trying to reduce political expression.

      Politics is anything related to the expression power and who should have power.

    If you haven’t been kicked off of Reddit by now, then you haven’t been loud enough. Stop with the mealy mouthed platitudes to the middle and pick a side.

    Kill your leaders.

        Man I got permabanned sitewide for suggesting people show up and draw chalk symbols on the (very public) street in front of the Governor’s Mansion, after Sarah Sanders had some Christian chalk artist come and draw a giant Jesus on the (very publicly owned) governor’s mansion driveway.

        This, you see, is a call for political violence. 🙄

      I got kicked off 2 years ago for saying “fuck Ukraine”, because some little bundle of twigs was quacking about how he/she loved the colors of a particular Van Gogh painting because the colors matched the Ukraine flag.

    There are at least 150 people on Lemmy with less than zero critical thinking skills. For shame.

    Wtf that site is governed so horribly. If people could leave to an alternative with similar size, I don’t doubt many would.

    Anyone notice now reddit let’s you hide your comments in the profile. I suspect this was done so that AI companies can’t crawl users comments.

    Edit: meant AI competitors. The ones not doing business with reddit

      Reminder that they have a business relationship to allow Google to directly scrape their database for AI training, so anything like that is only to stop competitors.

    I routinely say things that are not entirely negative about AI. I obviously care a lot about karma!
