Reddit's New Content Policy: Hate Towards "Majority" Groups Permissable

For a start it's contradictory,


Another issue is the vague use of the term "majority". It's obviously a reference to the majority demographic of North America, Europe, Australia etc but would a member of this "majority" be permitted to post hatred on reddit if they lived in Africa or Asia where they are a minority?

On a global scale this "majority" is actually a minority.

I'm not a Trump supporter, and I never will be.

Trump is a man of many flaws, however, he is the only presidential candidate who will attempt to slow down the Leftist insanity going on today.

You don't have answer now, but consider voting for him because of this.

That uncle tom ain't black, he isn't going to vote for Biden

That's bullshit, all this stuff is happening now and it is happening under his watch. He ain't doing shit.

Do you think he should be a dictator then?

this is supposed to be a joke, not a playbook.

Both sides are being censored, anything that goes against the narrative and is deemed racist. This isn't even a right wing issue.

In California, Hispanics are the majority. No Bueno.

You wonder how much further this is all going to go?

Try to reason with Leftists over this bs, and they squat down, shit in their hand, and offer it's contents to you in the form of "white fragility" or some of the other, usual, boring Leftist propaganda, before going on the attack.

Reddit’s gone all in on the sjw dictated ideology. They are seeing the direction of society via current social media trends and think they will be held up as champions in the new world. My guess is they’ll eventually get eaten by the crowd they want to appeal to.

Absolutely ridiculous decision. How about we just don't allow hate speech full stop?

Hook, line, sinker

When does trump start protecting us from these so called leftists? Hes running out of time

 

[Hellowhosthat]

They're getting absolutely slaughtered for this is the announcements subreddit, so hopefully that'll mean they change it.

The only double standard I’ve heard that would be interesting for a social media site is average joes are given more leniency than public figures. So if any actor or politician did something over the top, they’d be reprimanded for it far more than a person who isn’t known. I figure that platform would just die cause the famous people would move elsewhere but in terms of moderation, that seems a lot more manageable imo.

Regarding reddit, I don’t think that’s a good way to go about things.

The sociopathic side of me is impressed by this.

Create new terms like "hate speech," while redefining long-established terms like racism to fit your own goals and narratives.

In the end, you can get away with blatant racism and prejudice because you changed the meaning of those words to fit your own agenda.

Well played!

The right has been doing this with alternative right. For every action, there is an equal opposite reaction. This is why we are devolving into extremist politics, and it is unstoppable.

In the end, all that matters is who gets to define what is "majority" and what is "minority".

 

[Seso]

The only whites who are voting for today's far leftist "democratic" party are self hating whites. They are a bunching bag in their weird "democratic" shit

 

[I am your real dad]

These are just desperate moves from the propaganda machine.
And it's starting to open alot of eyes.

 

[Fluffernutter]

Define "majority".

Seems like a regional term.

I've been a demographic that has been in the majority in some communities and minority in other communities.
