How on earth would you even judge who is in the majority? of the global population? of the subreddit's community? In America? Based on where your IP is posting from?

I really think if there was to be a final nail in the coffin for Reddit, this would be it. It's total clown world.

If you're white. It's based on if you're white. The rule will change the moment whites are not a majority.

I actually can't believe they added this clause. It's explicitly anti-white. They literally endorse hate against whites. In black and white.

you're white. It's based on if you're white.

Also if you're female. Signed, GC.

It's closer to "if you're female and believe that massive schlongs are not female" but I agree.

Such strange times we live in that feminists are now reactionaries. But that's clown world for you.

"If you're female and you say no"

I've never heard a woman say no, you just must be doing it wrong. /s

But hold on, if GC was shut down as a hate sub and by many woke accounts, the target of that hate was men.. shouldn’t we have been fine? Men are the majority after all, and hate speech isnt possible when directed at the majority

Women are actually a slight majority.

you are over-thinking this by applying "fairness" - this is not about fairness this is power play to gain control of a media platform. this is politics. they could have said anyone who owns a cat is out. they still apply whatever they want and then add top-spin later. come on. wake up.

[–]Anonimouse 6 insightful - 2 fun6 insightful - 1 fun7 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

Just say the hate was towards trans, who are the most oppressedtm

[–]Whoscapes 5 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 0 fun6 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Do not apply the Enlightenment notion of universal values / fairness to the Reddit admins. They have been infiltrated by post-modern wokies who literally do not believe in Western ideas of empiricism, rationality, universalism etc. They follow people like Foucault and believe in nothing but raw power. This was an application of that.

It's balls out retarded and represents the decline of the West as this mentality seeps into all of our institutions.

plenty of misandryist subs left standing. Including all the pinkpill ones. GC wasn't banned for promoting hate against men, it was for promoting hate against TiMs. r/braincels was against women and shot down ages ago. r/theredpill and r/mgtow quarantined, r/theredpill at least for promoting "toxic masculinity" as it used to say in the quarantine message.

Are you implying biological men can't be female?

transREEEEEEEEEEEEEEing intensifies

While I wouldn't doubt that was the intent it could be spun so many different ways. If you go by global population it's Asian. It just seems like a bizarre way to go about it / phrase it even if that is their intent.

[–]teelo 13 insightful - 3 fun13 insightful - 2 fun14 insightful - 3 fun -  (1 child)

If you go by global population it's Asian.

Daily reminder: Asians are considered "people of colour" only if the person making the argument requires more people be affected by their argument, while if they need to show that "people of colour" are a minority then asians are to be considered "white people".

hol up. what am I, fkin transparent? everyone is a color. you need to start using the right language here - nonwhite, nonblack, non-african american, whatever, the point is using PoC is incorrect and just a technique to lump everyone who is non-white into one club so they could batter whites with it. I can tell you now that any African-American trying to gang up with a black African it will not go well, their lives are too different. Also Indians and Africans, may all be PoC but they sure dont get along automatically, unless gathered together under the convenient political weapon of "PoC" then everyone gets to complain about whitey in one large non-white group, which is not a good way to continue. basically use the right terminoloigy to diffuse some of the identity politics. so non-white is fine, non-indian is fine...many non-whites will take exception to be referred to as people of colour.

Yes, it's obviously worded to imply whites. But that's just it, whites aren't the majority. Not globally nor even in many places in the US. I'm white. I live in a majority black city. Is it ok to "direct hate" towards me, according to Reddit?

Someone at Reddit HQ has completely lost their mind.

[–][deleted] 6 insightful - 1 fun6 insightful - 0 fun7 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

All of this stuff, this censorship, these cultural revolutionaries burning down the cities... it's a last ditch effort of a dying system. Tomorrow belongs to us.

[–]JamalGinsberg 8 insightful - 2 fun8 insightful - 1 fun9 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

Certain whites are still off limits though. Like the ones that own reddit.

[–]liberate 4 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

not true. whites have been sucking up that koolaid for decades, its the eternal white guilt-trip. there are many white-virtue signallers and white protestors who think they fight for black rights but are really just trying to appease their own sense of worthlessness by seeking validation.

If you're white. It's based on if you're white. The rule will change the moment whites are not a majority.

Or male, or straight or cis. Also instigating violence against cops is ok.

Basically whatever considers the left to be "privileged".

The majority is whoever the 25+ subreddit mods who helped write the new rules decide it is.

Well, poor people are undoubtedly the largest majority in the world. So, according to Reddit, from now on it's okay to dehumanize them, while rich people need to be protected at all costs, because there are so few of them. I don't think they've thought this through very well.

The vast majority of people in South Africa are black.

Someone make /r/killallblacksouthafricans

[–]Article10ECHR 8 insightful - 1 fun8 insightful - 0 fun9 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Whites make up only about 10% (at most) of the worldwide population. So they are obviously protected by Reddit's hate speech rules. /s

[–]spezz 5 insightful - 2 fun5 insightful - 1 fun6 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

Because an even smaller minority doesn't want you to know that

[–]Girlwiththeraventat 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

They weren't that worried about who it applied to. They just wanted to be able to ban whatever they wanted. The ultimate echo chamber. Soon we'll be hearing about thought crimes.
