Do not post about Charlie Kirk. MOD MSG. Do not post about Charlie Kirk. It will be removed on sight. Support of him is a ban on sight. Glorification of violence violates sitewide rules and is a removal. Don't do it. We don't want the sub nuked and neither do you. Locked post. New comments cannot be posted.

This is a solid topic ban by being clear that supporting Kirk is a ban and reddit probably sees any criticism of Kirk as advocating violence so there isn't any reason to mention him at all.

    I wasn't sure you deserved an upvote until Kirk-a-lurk-in. Genius

    /uj Untrue. There are subs with millions of active users that are filled with posts and comments about him on the front page. Even if it were the case though, the right course of action would be to advertise the Fediverse and get people to move.

    Edit: Even if you go to r/popular/, it won't require much scrolling to come across a post about Kirk.

    It‘s not about bringing him up. The sub is quite big and users tend to be quite cynical and hate the far-right. Chances are high that sitewide rules will be broken.

    How do you think subs like Fauxmoi feel about the far-right? Still, he's all over the front page. If reddit rules were truly the problem, why not make use of the AutoMod to review all comments before their publication for the next few days, or do it only for posts that have certain key words relating to Kirk in their titles?
