Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.
What do you mean by Elon Musk’s assets should be liquidated?
Also, Reddit and X have very different moderating policies.
Ban Elon Musk then??? Sick of reading abt Reddit bending over backwards to defend him & Trump
This feeds into the right-wing fantasy that they're super tough warriors. You see a lot of literature and fictional TV aimed in this direction.
It's kind of like the white savior complex but instead of saving some victimized minority, they're saving weaker and more helpless individuals in their own society. But all the military hero returns home and confronts nasty biker gang or evil drug dealers and kicks their ass without when trying. It all reinforced their world view.
The irony here is that violence is a necessary action when the bourgeoisie (Billionaires) leaves the working class no other option. But what he's saying is that state violence is justified to maintain the status quo.
How would you rewrite this so that it's less deuchbag and more accurate?
The peace in peaceful is not of the "peace and war" kind. It's of the "peace and quiet" kind.
Important distinction.
The banhammer is pounded quite randomly over there.
Someone should post that text to reddit, see what happens.
Also, if you didn't already think there was going to be violence, now you should.
Apart from all the other bullshit rightfully called out below, this makes an illogical implication. Being the smart autistic superbrain Melon claims to be, it's surprising he doesn't see that. Or maybe not, because in reality he's just a sad ass who is too scared of just going to therapy.
If: Not being capable of violence => Not being able to call yourself peaceful
Then: Being able to call yourself peaceful => Being capable of violence
But not: Being capable of violence => Being able to call yourself peaceful
Elon's gonna get shot one day
We have to stop being surprised at this behavior and start expecting it and rejecting it, on sight.
