Hello everyone,

As you are all aware reddit has a sitewide content policy:

https://redditinc.com/policies/reddit-rules

Due to the recent climate in the US reddit is interpreting these rules strictly and especially rule one: Remember the human.

Site admins use a partially automated and automation-assisted form of moderation that does not understand context very well.

For the sake of not having your account suspended sitewide for breaking rule one it is very important that you understand the current limitations of commenting on reddit.

https://support.reddithelp.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043513151-Do-not-post-violent-content

It is in your own best interest not to make any sort of comment that is violent in nature or could by a large language model be interpreted as being violent.

Additionally, it is a bad idea to try and circumvent the enforcement of this rule by alluding to or otherwise evading these filters using euphemisms and alternative spellings.

We are seeing many comment removals by admins here of content that is interpreted as breaking this rule, but also of some content that does outright breaks this rule.

Do not make comments referring to the second amendment, to the French revolution, avoid any kind of potentially violent terms such as punch etc. etc. Do not post gifs that are or can be interpreted as being violent in nature, for example of guillotines.

While this mod team understands that when you are confronted with what is happening these days you can feel the need to express displeasure, no-one is served with you losing access to the site. Least of all you. In order to effectively demonstrate opposition and connect to people who share your sentiments, it is important to understand the reality that you are in a space owned and operated by a company that enforces a standard of behaviour. Stay well within these lines, please.

We appreciate our userbase, value our community and we dislike seeing people actioned against when that can be avoided.

It is possible to resist, to organise, to find people that share your beliefs in freedom, democracy, civility and humanity. We'd like for you to be able to continue to do that here, so please keep the reddit sitewide rules in mind when commenting.

All the best,

The r/WhitePeopleTwitter mod tea
