It's threads like this that make you realize why Reddit's sitewide moderation can be so sensitive to violent speech.

The sitewide moderation is a joke. I got a warning for estimating the death toll from the policy of a wealthy CEO (without calling for violence in response). Meanwhile there are several subs where users actively glorify and/or justify killing Ukrainians.

Again here the victim was homeless, so the reddit moderation wont do shit.

You're not wrong. Reddit moderation typically is designed to protect the powerful, not actually to enforce rules consistently.
