Cuz I made a post that was pretty much just "Cops dying is good" and received double digit downvotes and it was eventually removed for "fedposting" even though I was on the old sub, the discord and have been here since the beginning.
Yet at the same time we have celebratory posts pretty much any time a cop gets killed.
Kinda getting mixed signals here guys.
Edit: Libs.
We're anti-cop but direct violent threats are discouraged to avoid getting raided or anyone getting in serious trouble since that's illegal in the US.
I thought it was fine for us to wish death on "general groups and institutions", which I see people do here all the time.
Mods are a bit on edge after the report came out that we're def under surveillance.
I mean, they're probably watching this site too, but it wasn't mentioned in the paper.
I would imagine they'd dedicate more resources to larger communities, maybe.
It looked like a post a wrecker would make to try to make the site look bad or get it taken down. That's why it got downvoted and removed.
Remember when that (probably) fake Prince Kropotkin account was posting fed bait shit?
I made way worse comments on the old sub and got heavily upvoted
Remember the times right after chud subs got banned when the mods would limit the old sub to approved posters and be on high alert for chuds posting violent content as an op? It's like that. Sometimes there are false positives. That's how security works.
That’s how security works.
Where can I opt-in to body cavity searches?
"Look bad"? We're the remnants of a banned leftist sub that was infamous for wanting cops to die, but having to dance around it with "in Minecraft" shit cuz of Reddit's rules lol.
I don't see why saying a baseline belief here is suddenly crossing the line.
Go through the modlog and look at other stuff that got removed for "fedposting" and you'll get the idea
Well, it's a low effort post, so why bother? It's exactly the kind of post that a news organization would use as an example of why this place is bad.
It's something like an interloper would post to create evidence against this site and everyone on it.
I'm sure they wouldn't find anything else here with similar sentiments.
If someone really wanted to make a hitpiece on this place, they could do so easily. My post wouldn't make a difference.
I'm 40% pro cops dying, but 100% for them shooting themselves and trying to blame Aunty.
Fun fact: you must think that killing cops is good or you are not anti-police. There is no middle ground or nuance on the issue.

Nuance is a real thing, but is often abused as a bullshit liberal talking point
Some kind of word cloud that showed how much we like the word cock or something? I never got a clear explanation.
Some university put out a study on "online left wing extremist threat" and a lot of it focused on the old sub. It also compared us "anarchosocialists" to ISIS and the Proud Boys.
I thought the rule was "don't promote violence against specific individuals", which I wasn't.
