I mean Christians still do that shit in the belt and Reddit dominated by Religious extremists anyway
Painting the whole of reddit based on the actions of a single non-admin moderator on a religious subreddit of all things feels dishonest as hell, tbh.
Well, an admin not stepping in also speaks volumes. They were more than happy to step in when we complained about API changes.
Yes, reddit admins are famously shit and famously have the most skewed priorities in history, but that still doesn’t make this cherry-picked example a good representation of reddit as a whole.
The post is not trying to explain what reddit is. The post title says “Reddit is now allowing advocacy of Child Marrige because they don’t want to be seen as islamophobes”.
This is a true statement, since admins not stepping in means they are allowing it. The image is good evidence of that.
What do you want? Total censorship of every unacceptable position held by an individual user? I say let the child marriage advocates identify themselves.
I wouldn’t even mind them not censoring it. I am a fan of 4chan for it being such an unrestrained place, even if I rarely visit it.
But one, reddit does heavily moderate it’s content. You can’t remove content you dislike and then claim not deleting something doesn’t mean you approve.
Second, this is not just letting a user post what he wants, this is letting a mod use the power you gave him to force this shit through and delete, ban, and/or censor opposing views.
They are already identified… Nobody cares… That’s the problem…

Oh, I was expecting it to be a recent thing, not from months ago. That’s why I didn’t see it on their profile.

to be fair the vast majority of administration on reddit is now automated by bots. If you’ve ever been admin banned it tells you as much. So the real issue should be what filters/flags have been applied and why would the bot ignore something like this post/mod?
Reddit deleted my NSFW subreddit for no reason except it was competition for the girls they personally pimp out. They 100% take an active role and could deal wirh this if they wanted to.
Yeah, I walked away from reddit a couple of years ago now. I’ve been over there occasionally searching for something in particular and niche community this is definitely not the vibe for most of it.
This is a single post, hardly “Reddit”.
Yeah, I was gonna say, this is a community moderator not a site admin.
An admin not stepping in does reflect on Reddit. They have shown they won’t hesitate to step in when they actually care about the issue.

Reddit Admins ALL THE TIME, will remove posts and comments that the subreddit mods have allowed to post. And in some cases it may result in the ban of the poster and even of the group mod that approved it
The Karachi subreddit lol
So a random mod speaks for Reddit? What kind of BS is this post
A random mod for the Karachi subreddit
Yea I know, but the post says that the admins accept it, which is false
So a random mod speaks for Reddit? What kind of BS is this post
As long as Reddit allows this mod to continue his job, they implicitly support his cause. It’s why they had to ban all the subreddits that were being creepy.
edit: Time for OP to make a stink on Reddit about it. Not sure why they’re posting it here. It doesn’t concern me, IMO.

DEPORTED!
… Why is the little girl blurred out but the little boy isn’t?
Islam.
Because gazing upon women is haram
I know we all hate Reddit, but you don’t have to sink as low as this. This is a single post, hardly reddit’s stance.
well on the plus side we do the same thing with lemmy instances so at least we’re consistent
Yes😉
The point being made is that reddit Admins have zero problem banning anything that does not fit their “narrative”. And that narrative has a hierarchy not based on basic morality and common sense. Ask yourself this question, even if there was a single post, would reddit Admins allow the promotion of child marriage by a Christian religious group that was mostly comprised of White people?
How is that the point being made? This isn’t an admin.
The problem with morality is that there is no such thing as “basic morality” literally every human being has their own personal set of morals.
This is a stupid, dishonest and embarrassing post.

Maga can imagine
It’s called MAGA.
Dude, Mary was between 12 and 16 when she gave birth to Jesus. And don’t get me started on the story of Lot and his daughters in the Old Testament.
Between OP and the comments, what a stupid fucking post…
Yeah, and? Almost like christianity sucks too, who would have thought
It’s almost like all abrahamic religions are bad…
Tainted by the Demiurge.
At the very least, their extremist adherents are certainly responsible for some of the worst atrocities of the modern age.
This post is still garbage though
Mary was also a virgin though
Sure she was, friend
I mean according to the story told to the followers. It’s a lot better imo than in Islam where Aisha was six at the time of the marriage and nine when they had sex…
Then again Mary is a character in both religions’ stories
A lot better in reality or in storytelling?
Modern translations of the Bible try to soften culturally unacceptable practices in the present day like pedophilia and rape (especially in the old testament).
A lot better in that Mary was older than Aisha was at the time of marriage or sex
Presumably
“Mary was teenager”, conservatives defending child rapist republicans,
probablyactuallyRoy Moore, Republican US Senate candidate, accused of sexual assault on 14yo girl - ABC News - https://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-11-10/roy-moore-republican-senate-candidate-sexual-assault-allegation/9136922
Exactly. Racist Americans love to act like they’re so much more civilized than everyone in the Middle East and it’s like - I’m sorry have you been to Alabama? The President himself was best friends with the most notorious child rapist in modern history.
Oh but the brown people are so uncivilized!
Let’s not pretend that this problem is somehow isolated to Islam.
Child marriage is legal in the US with a majority of states allowing it in some form and four states literally having no minimum age of marriage.
This is a religious people problem. The more of them you have the more of this problem you have. Religious people have all kinds of excuses for pedophilia and other things that rob people of consent and agency.
The boy looks like he is 12. Why is his face visible but the (what I assume is a) girl’s face is not?
Disposability Theory continues to haunt me.
Religion. Leave it and open your eyes to the real world. Stop believing in fairy tales.
Being a child diddler has no religion. Even with Islam the people who advocate for child marriage still hold the same morals.
But don’t you dare attack a nation sympathiser…

This comment mentions finding it. It was ~2 hours after yours, maybe they added it back or something. https://lemmy.world/comment/18690799
Yeah, my bad then. I expected this to be a recent thing, not from months ago, didn’t think of checking their profile that far back.
Don’t be duped by fairy tale stories of any variety that seek to shackle your mind.
