Advocate for antivax bullshit that kills people? Sure! Encourage politicians to stop live-saving cancer research, gut the VA, and reduce safety standards that will have more people suffering? Cool beans!
Oh, you don't like that and want to voice your opinion? GFY
There has been serious doubt that painkillers in lethal injection were enough to work. But the death penalty should be off the table since so many are wrongly convinced, unless the convicted requests it as the more humane option, because prison is currently retributive and cruel, rather than rehabilitative and humane.
Apparently, writing an inspiring post about taking action and ways to protest was just too much for the delicate sensibilities of the internet overlords. I was banned for “inciting violence.”
Who knew that encouraging people to stand up for what they believe in was such a radical concept?
I suspect they're being strong armed to follow the reddit instructions. Since these are bootlicking mods that stayed on reddit after the blackouts, it makes sense they would capitulate.
I actually had a nice interaction with a mod on that subreddit just yesterday. A comment of mine was being auto-hidden. He explained why, then offered to help. Not the usual petty tyrant mod I expected.
If you thought Reddit was anything but on the side of Elon, Thiel, and the Nazi plutocrats, you haven’t been paying attention. And it will get worse and worse as time goes on.
They’re trying to control the conversation to the point that the Overton Window embraces open fascism, and it’s working.
Take this as a very good sign. They are afraid of implications of spreading this discourse. Go forth widely and proclaim it: “eat the rich”.
But in all seriousness let’s not loose the momentum. Online or offline we need to continue to push this narrative against capital, corruption, and genocide.
I think that depends largely on somebody's "join" date. If they're under 6 months old, they probably got banned/censored from Reddit. If they joined in the last 6-12 months, it's probably because of Reddit's AI policies. If they joined 12-18 months ago, it was probably due to the API changes shutting down third-party apps. If they're older than that, then they're probably just tankies.
I get your point but I left reddit & joined the lemmyverse just a week ago, and did not get banned/censored.
I just felt that a ton of small niggles both technical and content-/moderation-wise had accumulated towards a tipping point.
I have used old.reddit for the longest time and there's always been some glitches (...). There seem to be delays, and they're getting longer. Whether this is just old.reddit or in general, I do not care.
There are other indicators that reddit isn't interested in keeping old.reddit working. It's just a question of time.
Then there's bots, including wetware bots. Whether they're just re-posting to farm karma or actively flooding certain topics with vile opinion or - after a noticeable delay that has nothing to do with timezones - tip the up/downvote balance in their favor: they are here, and it's not getting better.
i joined lemmy today because i deleted reddit during the API purge and just replaced it with RSS feeds of news orgs before finally digging in to trying this out. and this was literally one of the first comments i saw. incredibly ironic and very hilarious
Your submission was removed as it advocates violence against either a specific person or a group of people. This rule includes thinly-veiled threats, or slogans such as "Eat the Rich". This is against Lemmy’s terms of service. (/s)
My account got banned about 2 weeks ago for three days saying if you were were a republican you voted for a Nazi and fuck Nazi's.
People don't realize it but Reddit is working on suppressing everything as well. This plus the soon to be paywalled information. This shit is on purpose.
Are you telling me the president’s closest advisor doing double nazi salutes to a cheering crowd and his other closest advisor doing a nazi salute to another cheering crowd isn’t just a coincidence? Next thing you’ll tell me is Musk likes the name X because he enjoys drawing the rest of the swastika.
Sucks too. I found some really obscure advice on one thread that really saved me. I had an HTC vive and the sensor boxes weren't working. Someone commented that the Razer Chroma program fucks it up for some reason so I got rid of it and it worked. Lots of useful info, about to be inaccessible to the masses.
I'm pretty sure he likes the X because that's how a ton of illiterate tribal African leaders signed away their land to Europeans, specifically his ancestors.
He likes the X because the ASCII code is 88, which is a number of note among neo-Nazis because it stands for HH, or Heil Hitler. I'm now convinced of this. The coincidence is too strong to overlook.
I got a 7 day ban for mentioning that someone managed to make Musk's AI say Musk and Trump deserve the death penalty in a thread shitting on Musk's AI. I tried to appeal the ban asking how mentioning this was "promoting violence" and I got permabanned with no explanations. Reddit has become a fucking cesspool.
I posted this comment once before but it fits here so I’ll post it again:
I got [perma] banned for telling a mod “spank spank spank. Thats the sound I make as I spank you. Yes yes yes. Thats the sound you make as I spank you.” And I don’t regret it
i noticed when i repealed some of my unfairly banned acc, it was just an AI response, most of the time your repeal is automatically denied and never looked at by a actual person.
since the election, somoene mentioned on another site that they went 3-4 ban purges by FEB of this year already, its much more and aggressive than normal too.
If Spez wasn't taking the Trump Coin to do ideological warfare on his behalf, he'd either be out on his ass or six feet under like Aaron Swartz. Then you'd have another Millennial corporate shit to hate in his stead.
At some point, you can't hate the player, just the game.
I'm just going to assume every billionaire pulling this shit for trump has an unfathomably disgusting record in the Epstein files. There's no way that every single one of them is deciding to be this overtly fucking pathetic.
it is a slogan calling for an eradication of the extremely influential and powerful, to redistribute their wealth and return it to those whom it was stolen from.
To be fair, you're still presuming the "old system/rules" holds true for you. Did you see the "campus protest" EO, for example? Not a huge leap to arresting anything they deem illegal.
Why would I say otherwise to justify? And regarding the softening, that's no problem some meat tenderizer won't solve, It's not that you have to be rich, you know. Handing over the loot is not too much to ask, seriously. If you can't find the irony in there, you might want to watch the same titled movie from the 1980s. I doubt you'll like it.
If we let the rich continue as they have been doing, then we’ll be forced to either all starve to death or sustain ourselves on the only meat available.
Your submission has been removed as it advocates wordplay and the potential use of a thesaurus. Education and signs of intelligence are against the interests of the rich.
Wait? Really? Fuck me. I was supporting the proletariat because I thought we were gonna allow people to eat people. This is not the revolution I signed up for. What am I going to do with all this extra meat?! My freezer is completely full.
You know how it's normally not good for you to eat heavily processed foods? Same goes for rich people. They are so full of chemicals and plastics that you're better off not literally eating them.
The rich wannabe oligarchs are taking over every social media platform and news agencies. Twatter, TikFuck, FaceFuck, Instabam, CNN, WaPo and now Reddit. To hell with all of them.
reddit realized r/conservative, conspiracy was bringing alot of traffic to reddit so they dint ban the sub. now its being purposely pushed to the front page.
Listen, the masses need to eat and soylent green is a perfectly economically viable solution. Don't try to paint ME as a bad guy just because I'm open to solutions
The comments in this thread remind me of something, I forget the original medium, but it was about fairy tales.
Paraphrasing, it spoke about how people passed along fairy tales, not because of our belief in dragons existing, but to reassure us that dragons can be defeated.
Also I recommend everyone watch, or rewatch, V for Vendetta. Many may suggest reading it, which is absolutely as valid. However, as a fan of movies, Hugo Weaving's performance is in a league of it's own.
Recently had a friend tell me that he couldn't even read reddit comments anymore because of all the "SJW bs". "I'm as centrist as they come and reddit has just gone way too far left recently". I haven't spoken to him since and was a little surprised by the total lack of awareness, as he's generally a very intelligent & fun person.
There have been problematic comments in the past, but it's not possible to keep the peace with the current political/societal state - the mental / emotional exhaustion is just too much.
I was put on a 3 day ban for "hate" because I commented about the ongoing Palestine/Israel conflicts. Basically, I said Hamas committed a horrible act but the IDF/Netanyahu have also done terrible things. To be clear, I said BOTH groups have blood on their hands.
I was banned, but commenters who condemned Hamas/Palestine and called for ALL of them to be killed and then PRAISED the IDF/Netanyahu for killing them, were NOT banned.
Apparently, we are only allowed to speak out against one particular group 🇵🇸 ☪️. The other group 🇮🇱 🕎, is absolutely innocent, perfect, and has never harmed anyone. Allegedly.
i said something similar while gaza attack was by "palestinians" the instigator was bibi, someone ranted and reported me. then many people that got banned from worldnews said they were so many israeli bots there astroturfing everything,
Before I finally checked out, I got a month-long ban from r/electricvehicles for "That'll do pig, that'll do". Apparently automod isn't a fan of the movie Babe.
i was in the gym sub that randomly popped up, got a ban from it, for responding to someone qouting isaip MAC about his "gains" i was saying something along the lines of if your Juicing all the way. they dont like to hear the dirty word that they are using PEDS.
They’re going to need crazy euphemisms, like on TikTok with unalived and things like that.
I like the sound of “I hope X has a great day.”
It’s hard to see how they can ban that. I hope the people fighting to keep the oligarchy going have a great day, and I hope the spineless Reddit executives who made this decision have a great day.
You make a short phrase where the last word rhymes with the word you want. So for "rich", the phrase could be "bait and switch". Then you drop the end and just use the first part, in this case "rich" becomes "bait". Eat the bait. You could also make one for "eat", say "sugar beet", then eat-->sugar.
Sugar the Bait.
But plenty of other possibilities. For Luigi, it might be a little harder, all I can think of is squeegee and Fiji.
Consume the accumulated wealth, power, and privilege of the affluent elite in an act of radical socioeconomic retribution driven by the pursuit of equity and justice for the disenfranchised masses
Just do a link out to a PNG that says "destroy the rich" and then have the text say "you know what to do..."
Then it won't get filtered. If you upload a new graphic every few posts and change the text part it'll be even harder for them to blanket ban your posts.
To be honest, reddit has been awful for a long time. In the past it was just that they would ban you for speaking out against bigots, now it's just being awful for everyone else too.
half of its bot comments, its already half dead since for a few years already(iy was a post on reddit 1-2 years ago). im hazarding alot of the bots are mostly from russia, followed usa own troll farms, and then israel. reddit decided to only go after the OF and people who promotes thier own businesses mostly.
kinda obvious if alot of posts were being found as bots too.
Same rule would quite honestly improve Lemmy quite a bit.
Not because of political reasons, but because it gets annoying opening any news post, expecting interesting discussion, and getting a bunch of versions of "eAt tHe rIcH" and guillotine comments instead.
As far as i know, there used to be a rule against that that was applied to people praising luigi, but not to people who said to kill all billionaires. I think it got removed or replaced now since i couldnt find it.
It wasn’t a rule, there was just ambiguity on whether talking about jury nullification for Luigi’s trial fell under advocating for violence, which led to some confusion (they later clarified that talking about it in terms of encouraging future crimes still counts as advocating for violence, but if the crime already happened or if it’s non-specific it’s all good, afaik).
So you advocated for violence against a specific group of people and got banned for advocating for violence against a specific group of people? How unexpected…
Advocate for antivax bullshit that kills people? Sure! Encourage politicians to stop live-saving cancer research, gut the VA, and reduce safety standards that will have more people suffering? Cool beans!
Oh, you don't like that and want to voice your opinion? GFY
My country is about to strap a guy to a chair and have 3 government employees fire a gun at him. And that's fine.
Assuming this is America, that guy requested for that to happen because it's a less excruciating death than the other chair.
But here's why it's still an issue: being shot should not be the most humane option we give someone lmfao
There has been serious doubt that painkillers in lethal injection were enough to work. But the death penalty should be off the table since so many are wrongly convinced, unless the convicted requests it as the more humane option, because prison is currently retributive and cruel, rather than rehabilitative and humane.
Ugh...
What?
Apparently, writing an inspiring post about taking action and ways to protest was just too much for the delicate sensibilities of the internet overlords. I was banned for “inciting violence.”
Who knew that encouraging people to stand up for what they believe in was such a radical concept?
I commented supporting Canadian boycotts of American goods - an economic protest and it got removed by Reddit admins for “glorifying violence”
Don't you know, it's considered violence to use economics against the rich, that's only allowed against the poors
A while ago as a test I literally just typed “guillotine” without context or anything. Perma banned my 5 year old account.
Yeah, well a few years ago you got banned for saying "groomer".
Sometimes it's not even direct violence, redlining is sufficient to keep you stuck where they want you to be
As if policing upvotes wasn't bad enough, this is just... gross. Yeah, fuck reddit.
a boring dystopia mod team... huh.
Lmao didn't even notice - this is poetry
Did they get overthrown in the reddit purge or just the usual tankie infiltration
I suspect they're being strong armed to follow the reddit instructions. Since these are bootlicking mods that stayed on reddit after the blackouts, it makes sense they would capitulate.
did you know there are 92 mods that own over 500 subs, these are probably the true bootlickers of reddit admins.
Tankie what hahaha
Honest question, what do you think a Tankie is?
A personified tank, duuuuh /s
Yeah, those tankies sure love rich capitalists.
Tankies love being hypocrites.
Tankies: the "woke" of room temperature IQ Lemmings.
I actually had a nice interaction with a mod on that subreddit just yesterday. A comment of mine was being auto-hidden. He explained why, then offered to help. Not the usual petty tyrant mod I expected.
If you thought Reddit was anything but on the side of Elon, Thiel, and the Nazi plutocrats, you haven’t been paying attention. And it will get worse and worse as time goes on.
They’re trying to control the conversation to the point that the Overton Window embraces open fascism, and it’s working.
Why would they be against thiel? He was an early investor back in 2014 when Altman got involved
Take this as a very good sign. They are afraid of implications of spreading this discourse. Go forth widely and proclaim it: “eat the rich”.
But in all seriousness let’s not loose the momentum. Online or offline we need to continue to push this narrative against capital, corruption, and genocide.
Why do you think we're here? Reddit is dying
I think that depends largely on somebody's "join" date. If they're under 6 months old, they probably got banned/censored from Reddit. If they joined in the last 6-12 months, it's probably because of Reddit's AI policies. If they joined 12-18 months ago, it was probably due to the API changes shutting down third-party apps. If they're older than that, then they're probably just tankies.
Joke's on you, I'm on my third account.
(Defunct instance, left due to mods, now here.)
Very true, in fact I forgot that I'm on my second account, myself (RIP, kbin.social).
I also started on kbin, better default web interface by far. But the call of Voyager's echoes of Apollo was strong.
Happy cake day!
Total coincidence, I swear lol.
hey now, some of us are FOSS greybeards
Some of us just like Linux.
I get your point but I left reddit & joined the lemmyverse just a week ago, and did not get banned/censored.
I just felt that a ton of small niggles both technical and content-/moderation-wise had accumulated towards a tipping point.
API changes for me bruh
i joined lemmy today because i deleted reddit during the API purge and just replaced it with RSS feeds of news orgs before finally digging in to trying this out. and this was literally one of the first comments i saw. incredibly ironic and very hilarious
God, I wish. But I heard reddit even grew when 3rd party API was banned. Why would it be different this time?
Compost the affluent
Your submission was removed as it advocates violence against either a specific person or a group of people. This rule includes thinly-veiled threats, or slogans such as "Eat the Rich". This is against Lemmy’s terms of service. (/s)
Gobble the gaudy
Vore the venerable
That sounds more like a sexy time activity than a parasite cleansing activity
Yeah, count me in!
Straight to gitmo. Do not pass go. Do not collect 200$.
The fact that "affluent" and "effluent" are basically the same word can't be coincidence
Anyone else think chocolate is great? I love to eat the rich, dark kind for dessert. It's a delightful way to end a meal.
I love eating White chocolate, especially from South Africa
threats are getting hella veiled

Wow. I knew razer software was flaming garbage but the fact that it fucks up other stuff is truly incredible.
niche subs likely wont be replicated on lemmy or another site , im in several of those subs too.
I'm pretty sure he likes the X because that's how a ton of illiterate tribal African leaders signed away their land to Europeans, specifically his ancestors.
He likes the X because the ASCII code is 88, which is a number of note among neo-Nazis because it stands for HH, or Heil Hitler. I'm now convinced of this. The coincidence is too strong to overlook.
Also his father was involved in an organization called x, which was fascist
That seems reasonable as well.
¿Por que no los dos?
A double infinity symbol, so to infinity and beyond?
Musk is a descendent of dutch colonials in SA, his father and mother shared the same mentality as musk.
going the way of pornhub, sanitized the accts, that only clean, corporate material is allowed.
Wow. Back when I lived there, I never would have expected that I wouldn't be able to say eat the rich.
remember r/antiwork?
Ya, I member!
May I suggest a mass Reddit exodus?
I finally gave up today. Well over a decade there and I'm f'ing done. Just got things going here, I hope it goes well.
Surprised you waited this long. I left when they decided to get rid of 3rd party apps.
We’re in the same boat! I have a good feeling about this place.
I've been posting lemmy on reddit, and have gotten a few bans for my trouble.
I welcome the bans.
Yes to today is the day
Man... When ABoringDystopia itself becomes dystopian, you know shit is absolutely fucked.
eat the Reddit admins
Eat spez
Don't eat poo
I heard the guillotine has no objections ingesting poo
I've never thought the poop knife will come back to relevance in this manner. Never!
FUCK SPEZ
... And then eat him.
...with a nice cianti
tftftftftftftftftftf
Ew, gross.
But saying eat the rich on Reddit is like a tradition.
This will probably piss off a lot of soon to be lemmy users.
Let’s hope.
I got a 7 day ban for mentioning that someone managed to make Musk's AI say Musk and Trump deserve the death penalty in a thread shitting on Musk's AI.

Spank spank spank the rich
Yup, if someone could make a bot that changes every comment I've ever made into promotion of violence I'd run it. Fuck them stooges.
i noticed when i repealed some of my unfairly banned acc, it was just an AI response, most of the time your repeal is automatically denied and never looked at by a actual person.
They are power hungry and don't give a fuck about user retention. It's a purge.
since the election, somoene mentioned on another site that they went 3-4 ban purges by FEB of this year already, its much more and aggressive than normal too.
I love how Reddit has been supporting the right side of American politics since TD was a thing. Spez is such a pos coward.
i thought they werent as TD was eventually driven out of reddit and spez edited comments on TD users
The_Donald, I guess. It was eventually banned.
If Spez wasn't taking the Trump Coin to do ideological warfare on his behalf, he'd either be out on his ass or six feet under like Aaron Swartz. Then you'd have another Millennial corporate shit to hate in his stead.
At some point, you can't hate the player, just the game.
I'm just going to assume every billionaire pulling this shit for trump has an unfathomably disgusting record in the Epstein files. There's no way that every single one of them is deciding to be this overtly fucking pathetic.
masticate the unpoors
A borning dystopia indeed.
Don’t eat shit.
Mulch the rich.
This sheer irony of that on boring dystopia
Digest the oligarchs
Consume those who hoard disgustingly large amounts of wealth.
For that to be on the boring dystopia subreddit is pretty funny ngl
many subs are probably infilitrated by the admins themselves or the mods that have direct ties to admins.
Repeat after me:
Eat the rich
Is eat the rich generally a call for violence? I actually don’t really know what people mean when they say this.
it is a slogan calling for an eradication of the extremely influential and powerful, to redistribute their wealth and return it to those whom it was stolen from.
When you say eradicate, as in remove their station in society or actually kill those people?
i would personally like to see a trial held similar to Nuremberg, these people need to have their crimes vocalised.
Thanks for your opinion. I think different people have different meanings when they use this phrase.
that is the left in a nutshell lol
Lol if there’s no answer it’s also an answer. So do what you will.
Also, I don’t believe vague calls for violence like this are even illegal in the US. Has to be something specific and actionable.
Yep. It's kinda dismaying how many people either don't understand that or don't want to understand that.
To be fair, you're still presuming the "old system/rules" holds true for you. Did you see the "campus protest" EO, for example? Not a huge leap to arresting anything they deem illegal.
The rich don’t tend to want to lose their assets voluntarily.
Sure but there are many possible ways to solve that issue.
I've always viewed it as a call to repurpose the resources currently hoarded by the rich.
I think Reddit is just pretending to interpret it as incitement to cannibalism.
I agree, except that it looks a lot different now after Luigi.
For now. Internationally, that phrase has been around for much longer than that, and I think it will be around for a lot longer.
It has always been a threat / call to violence and anyone saying otherwise is trying to justify it / soften the meaning.
Why would I say otherwise to justify? And regarding the softening, that's no problem some meat tenderizer won't solve, It's not that you have to be rich, you know. Handing over the loot is not too much to ask, seriously. If you can't find the irony in there, you might want to watch the same titled movie from the 1980s. I doubt you'll like it.
If we let the rich continue as they have been doing, then we’ll be forced to either all starve to death or sustain ourselves on the only meat available.
French revolution, Jean-Jacques Rousseau supposedly said "When the poor have nothing to eat, they will eat the rich."
Well then that’s probably a violation of Reddit policy. And some Lemmy instance rules.
Which was your goal in asking.
Nah I was just curious how people mean it. I don’t give a shit about the rules.
Masticate the Moneyed.
Your submission has been removed as it advocates wordplay and the potential use of a thesaurus. Education and signs of intelligence are against the interests of the rich.

Roast the Rich

Reality has executed Satire in broad daylight
Let me try something:
People, who own over a billion dollars, should be killed, cut apart and their body parts be prepared and eaten.
Invite the rich for dinner. For one.
And also they are the dinner. The rich people you invited. In that you literally intend to eat them. Thus the original play on words. "For one."
Wait? Really? Fuck me. I was supporting the proletariat because I thought we were gonna allow people to eat people. This is not the revolution I signed up for. What am I going to do with all this extra meat?! My freezer is completely full.
You know how it's normally not good for you to eat heavily processed foods? Same goes for rich people. They are so full of chemicals and plastics that you're better off not literally eating them.
Make soap instead

Yup. Wonder if Reddit will similarly moderate those who make comments like "your body my voice", "51st state" etc
If they were actually consistent, /r/conservative would be gone pretty quick among other things
reddit realized r/conservative, conspiracy was bringing alot of traffic to reddit so they dint ban the sub. now its being purposely pushed to the front page.
a *lot of traffic
I wonder how much of that is currently bots though at this point...
Just don't think about it.. or try pointing it out, lest you become undesirable to the administration
spez/huffman have been shilling for trump for a while.
Is anyone willing to test if "eat the poor" is also considered violent?
100% it’s not considered violent. I’m sure you could say worst about poor people and it would still be alright
Listen, the masses need to eat and soylent green is a perfectly economically viable solution. Don't try to paint ME as a bad guy just because I'm open to solutions
/s just to be safe
That sounds like a much more modest proposal.
Curtis Yarvin “joked” that we should turn poor people into biofuel, so…
soylent green.
Liquidate the Bourgeoisie. In a blender.

The original long-winded quote is from GK Chesterton, but the shorter, neater quotable one is from Terry Pratchett, or more recently Neil Gaiman.
Recently had a friend tell me that he couldn't even read reddit comments anymore because of all the "SJW bs". "I'm as centrist as they come and reddit has just gone way too far left recently". I haven't spoken to him since and was a little surprised by the total lack of awareness, as he's generally a very intelligent & fun person.
There have been problematic comments in the past, but it's not possible to keep the peace with the current political/societal state - the mental / emotional exhaustion is just too much.
Someone told you that recently? lol. You literally cannot stand up against bigots without getting in trouble on reddit.
try reporting them, you get banned instead, or your comment gets ignored. tried to call them out you get brigaded and possibly reported by them.
My perma-ban from reddit was for saying mean things to a transphobe who declared that trans people "aren't humans"
And chuds want us to believe reddit is a leftist paradise.
Let them eat Mac.
naw cause why do the noodles look kinda creepy
I agree; the rich are disgusting, don't eat them.
Good point. Do you think "The Rich Are Too Disgusting to Eat" would be allowed? It's clearly anti-cannibalism.
This is why we have trained leopards.
Sometimes though you like to splurge on a flight of the rich from all over the world!
Let them kill you and your family, don't complain.
I was put on a 3 day ban for "hate" because I commented about the ongoing Palestine/Israel conflicts. Basically, I said Hamas committed a horrible act but the IDF/Netanyahu have also done terrible things. To be clear, I said BOTH groups have blood on their hands.
I was banned, but commenters who condemned Hamas/Palestine and called for ALL of them to be killed and then PRAISED the IDF/Netanyahu for killing them, were NOT banned.
Apparently, we are only allowed to speak out against one particular group 🇵🇸 ☪️. The other group 🇮🇱 🕎, is absolutely innocent, perfect, and has never harmed anyone. Allegedly.
We'll see if THIS gets deleted.
The problem with liberals is that they feel the need to apologize even before they make their point.
Then they're shocked by how easy it is to bully them.
i said something similar while gaza attack was by "palestinians" the instigator was bibi, someone ranted and reported me. then many people that got banned from worldnews said they were so many israeli bots there astroturfing everything,
Consume the upper class? Vore the bourgeois?
Was gonna say, pretty lame of reddit to ban vore content.
They actually did that since I left?
You gotta bust out that ol' thesaurus.
''Consume the abundance''
''Ingest the waxed''
''Partake in the Bloated''
''Drink down the Hog swaggle''
''Caramelize the Cashhavers''
''Snoot up the Heavy Laiden''
Partake in the Bloated goes kinda hard tbh
99% chance there's already an obscure metal band/album with that name and fans would rage at me for calling it merely metal.
I hope it's Groove Metal with unexpected but fitting jazz influence.
Before I finally checked out, I got a month-long ban from r/electricvehicles for "That'll do pig, that'll do". Apparently automod isn't a fan of the movie Babe.
i was in the gym sub that randomly popped up, got a ban from it, for responding to someone qouting isaip MAC about his "gains" i was saying something along the lines of if your Juicing all the way. they dont like to hear the dirty word that they are using PEDS.
Digest the net-worthy?
they're perfectly fine with digesting the downtrodden though.
DIGEST THE UPTRODDEN! I think we have our replacement.
Consume the well-to-do
Partake of the affluent
Baste the Upper Caste
What about "France them"
They’re going to need crazy euphemisms, like on TikTok with unalived and things like that.
I like the sound of “I hope X has a great day.”
It’s hard to see how they can ban that. I hope the people fighting to keep the oligarchy going have a great day, and I hope the spineless Reddit executives who made this decision have a great day.
commenting the word black, or demographic can get you banned too.
Maybe it's time to start using rhyming slang?
You make a short phrase where the last word rhymes with the word you want. So for "rich", the phrase could be "bait and switch". Then you drop the end and just use the first part, in this case "rich" becomes "bait". Eat the bait. You could also make one for "eat", say "sugar beet", then eat-->sugar.
Sugar the Bait.
But plenty of other possibilities. For Luigi, it might be a little harder, all I can think of is squeegee and Fiji.
Remember that Luigi can be shortened to Gigi in Italian. And Mangione means "big eater". So Gigi Bigeater.
You could also say "Chuck's Brother," as in Chuck Mangione.
It's because of the new Reddit rules, Admins are doing a purge atm
It isn’t.
Consume the accumulated wealth, power, and privilege of the affluent elite in an act of radical socioeconomic retribution driven by the pursuit of equity and justice for the disenfranchised masses
$20 says that gets banned.

Fuck Reddit's bootlickers?
Masticate those with excessive means!
NFT grifter kevin rose.
That was some wild shit I just read.
What about "eat the poor" from A Modest Proposal by Jonathan Swift? "Kill the Poor" by The Dead Kennedys? Can I post "Eat the Rich" by Motorhead?
That's one lonely mod.
Just do a link out to a PNG that says "destroy the rich" and then have the text say "you know what to do..."
Then it won't get filtered. If you upload a new graphic every few posts and change the text part it'll be even harder for them to blanket ban your posts.
To be honest, reddit has been awful for a long time. In the past it was just that they would ban you for speaking out against bigots, now it's just being awful for everyone else too.
If you don't let people fix the problem democratically it will be time for guillotines.
It's an insane amount censorship that's for sure
😒
lugia comments will be banned, unless they make an exception for pokemon subs.
Shit like this makes me glad to have left that dumpster fire long ago.
They're getting afraid. Trying to censor that stuff as much as they can before they face the inevitable guillotine.
Its a lot better reading this from lemmy versus a sub you are subscribed to on cuckit
Yeah reddit's days are pretty numbered at this point. This shit is ridiculous.
half of its bot comments, its already half dead since for a few years already(iy was a post on reddit 1-2 years ago). im hazarding alot of the bots are mostly from russia, followed usa own troll farms, and then israel. reddit decided to only go after the OF and people who promotes thier own businesses mostly.
kinda obvious if alot of posts were being found as bots too.
a *lot of posts
Pigboy is worried how he'll taste with Carolina BBQ sauce
(I don't actually want to eat him. God knows what's in his feed.)
They must not be Aerosmith fans

Aero... what?
I'd be power tripping just to feel like a human being too if I had billionaire balls in my mouth 24/7
Mangia the rich
Hey buddy, don't you know that billionaires are a protected class!
I wonder if I OD if I ingest the coctail making Trump's blood still flowing. His admin sure puts my Fallout characters to shame.
Horrible. Glad I’m out of there
Eat the fucking rich cunts
Reddit has rules against inciting coprophagy? TIL.
Boom the bourgeoisie
Eat Reddit then lmao
Partake of the affluent?
Perhaps dining on the poor is more palatable.
I heard the hypothesis put forth that sucking time, energy and money from people is the allegory of vampire tales.
Iss die Reichen
I was banned for the same thing but I wasn't so nice about what I'd like to do to the wealthy.
It's a good Motorhead song
i'd happily eat "eat the rich" crowd
Same rule would quite honestly improve Lemmy quite a bit.
Not because of political reasons, but because it gets annoying opening any news post, expecting interesting discussion, and getting a bunch of versions of "eAt tHe rIcH" and guillotine comments instead.
That's like reddit behavior
We are reddit though just on a different site... lot of people mainly moved because of the api change.
Even someone believing they are "not like other redditors" is one of the most reddit stereotypes. Haha.
Fun fact this is also against .world's tos.
By all means, eat the rich, but cook it well done, it's full of brain worms and ketamine and other vile stuff you probably shouldn't be eating.
Probably a lot of heavy metals and other toxins too
Is it? I think I've seen on some .world communities a few times
It's not. The OP is a tankie and .world is too reasonable for them.
I just saw [email protected] in another comment so I guess it's allowed ha ha
As far as i know, there used to be a rule against that that was applied to people praising luigi, but not to people who said to kill all billionaires. I think it got removed or replaced now since i couldnt find it.
It wasn’t a rule, there was just ambiguity on whether talking about jury nullification for Luigi’s trial fell under advocating for violence, which led to some confusion (they later clarified that talking about it in terms of encouraging future crimes still counts as advocating for violence, but if the crime already happened or if it’s non-specific it’s all good, afaik).
You're hilarious. You can eat as many rich people as you can trap on .world
Please stop lying to the newcomers or else I have to post pictures of Putin giving head to Jinping.
You mean reddit.world?
.world is literally just Reddit.
So you advocated for violence against a specific group of people and got banned for advocating for violence against a specific group of people? How unexpected…
You're against the use of violence against violent criminals?
Since when are literally all rich people violent criminals?
Maybe I'm not understanding your perspective. Do you advocate violence against violent criminals?
