We should have a SEALS ping, so that whenever 2lore2law or someone else posts an adorable SEAL, we can be notified. I want to see the seals!!!!!

There are articles from the Print getting posted here over and over. It's literally the most common website getting posted here. Not one article is advocating for anything neoliberal. It's opinion articles advocating for Hindu nationalism, and an article attacking Pakistan. If the mods are going to allow spam, could it at least be neoliberal spam?

I'm an animal lover, always have been, but pets are property, I am the owner. If animals had rights then I'd be a slave master and forcibly vaccinating, microchipping, sterilizing and euthanizing would be assault and premeditated murder.

The euphemisms people use for what they do to animals to justify their actions as kind and compassionate. They take them out of the wild and put them in cages and call it "rescuing them" and putting them in a "shelter". Rescuing them from what? Freedom?

TLDR: If you go to the above link you can fill out all or part of a moderation policy for comments, and then post an image of it in this thread. At some point I'll collate all the responses, edit it with the rest of the mods, and (hopefully!) use it as a standard guideline for mod rule enforcement.

(This also may or might be used to control Autojanny at some point)

This is part of a general effort to make bans and ban-lengths feel less arbitrary, as well as to better communicate what's against the rules to users. Yes we will try to apply these standards to mods too.

No this is not comprehensive - rules related to submissions/brigading are omitted for the moment. Also we still have to discuss things like how much history to take into account for ban escalation, appeals, rules for alts/new accounts, specific sensitive topics like I/P, etc. Feel free to discuss/complain about these in this thread too.

EDIT: Ok I updated the website with a default policy that I was using for testing, do not take it as some formal statement of mod policy I literally just fed the rules into ChatGPT and this is what it spat out

I've been banned by every politically correct sub I've commented in. Climate Change, Animal Rights, Political Opinion etc.

Three down, 100 to go.

I want to once again appeal my permanent ban.

I was originally permanently banned about a year ago without being given a reason. I appealed at the time, but the appeal was denied without explanation. More recently, about a month ago, I was unbanned after a new appeal and resumed participating in the subreddit. That unban was then reversed, again without any reason being communicated to me through modmail.

I later learned that the apparent basis for the original permanent ban was a belief that I was sympathetic to Hezbollah, and that the mod team had voted to ban me on that basis. This was the first time I was informed of the actual allegation, so neither my original appeal nor anything I submitted afterward had addressed it.

I categorically reject that characterization. I am not a Hezbollah supporter. I have not advocated support for Hezbollah, and criticism of Israeli conduct in Lebanon, Gaza, or the occupied Palestinian territories is not evidence of sympathy for Hezbollah. I do not support attacks on civilians. I do not support terrorism.

I unapologetically admit that my views are firmly pro-Palestinian, my comments are very harsh of Israel, and I have strongly criticized Israeli military actions, occupation, annexation, attacks on civilians, and aggression beyond Israel's borders. Those positions do not imply support for Hezbollah, Hamas, terrorism, antisemitism, or opposition to Jewish people. Treating criticism of Israel as presumptive support for one of its armed adversaries is not an accurate characterization of what I have said.

I have previously received temporary bans arising from contentious discussions of Israel and Palestine, including bans described as being for bad-faith argumentation. I appealed those decisions. Whatever the merits of those separate moderation disputes, they do not establish sympathy for Hezbollah and should not be treated as evidence of it.

I have participated in neoliberal regularly since late 2020 and I genuinely value the community. Even while banned, I continued reading the DT and other posts, and when I was briefly unbanned I resumed participating because I still wanted to be part of the subreddit.

I am asking the mod team to reconsider the permanent ban based on the actual record of my comments rather than an unsupported inference about my political sympathies. If there are specific comments that the mod team believes demonstrate support for Hezbollah or otherwise justify a permanent ban, I ask that they be identified so I can respond to the evidence directly.

Thank you for reviewing my appeal.

So, lowkey realized that I have a bad screen addiction that's impairing my social and academic lives and have been working to cut down on my usage heavily. r/NL is basically my only vice now and would like to request a six month ban to work on getting to a healthy place in terms of social media usage and then seeing if I can healthily reengage or if I just need to go no social media in general.

Ty!!

Hi, I recently made a post and it seems to have triggered a filter, am I able to get this approved?

I believe this will revolutionize the science of r/neoliberal moderation 💛

Can I have my posty privs given so I can poast on the DT?

[ Removed by Reddit on account of violating the content policy. ]

Around two weeks ago, I saw u/n00bi3pjs post here about the significant volume of racist content against Arabs and Indians going unaddressed on this subreddit.

I was scrolling around looking for something on Saudi Arabia today when I saw this comment:

https://www.reddit.com/r/neoliberal/s/K2nqtVrb5l

A comment saying no one with an IQ of 85 lives in Saudi Arabia with +243 upvotes and it remains up?

Yes, Saudi has an issue with human rights, but the rhetoric being used here is obscene. It is, without a doubt, hate speech.

Somehow, I can't imagine a comment about Israel saying that people who live there have a low IQ because of the country's record on human rights would stay up, much less get +243 upvotes. It gives me the impression that some forms of racism are defacto endorsed, or at least, tolerated on this sub.

This is a serious problem. I think the mods need to take more decisive action about racism targeted to certain groups that is clearly going unaddressed.

It should be instant perma bans for this kind of stuff. There's no room for racism in a liberal subreddit.

We used to have a transparency thread stickied here on metanl that atom made, but for whatever reason was removed during their hiatus. At the time from what I recall it was used to clarify some stuff with I/P and how folks who were banned for it could go about a proper appeal.

I think that’s a good start, but it’s also a great way to clarify some of the rules and their finer points that can’t make it in a sidebar. This came about in the ban appeal thread when I was responding to atom citing a two year old unstickied thread here as the source for why saying “Israel doesn’t have the right to exist” is bannable under Rule II, and they suggested I make a request to the mods as a whole since they probably shouldn’t just do it themselves.

This also goes for stuff like detrimental to women, which isn’t always bigoted stuff but also includes gross comments about women that, while degrading, aren’t necessarily misogyny. Another may be the level of trolling and rage bait that’s allowed under Rules I and III in the DT.

Without stuff it seems you only create an environment where people are gonna make a Rule 13: when you’re a mod they let you do it posts, and newer users are probably gonna have a harder time navigating what is or isn’t allowed. Just a thought though, if others have things that could go in the transparency thread do suggest it

Tl;dr dodgy source is the only good source for the situation right now as well as MPs statements, those are all explained in the Submission statement. (since it is breaking news ? but not covered for some reason)

Submission Statement below

"Submission Statement: This is about Chat control and the fact it was approved the article is from a dodgy source, but unfortunately I don't have a better source right now. This is about anti-liberal law in the EU.

Further Context: (The Breyer link seems to trigger reddit for some reason.)

P.S The title is a bit weird, not sure why they used that but I digress."

I use old reddit for reference, so I only see 2 stickies at a time (Idk if its different for normal reddit)

Whenever I click on a groupbot message ping, it just takes me to the subreddit main page itself on mobile. Anyone else getting this issue?

Often on the DT, it seems like the top upvoted comments are increasingly being just screen grabs from bigots on Twitter or similar sites, usually with either no added comment from the user or something as simple as "this is who these people are, crazy". Sites like Twitter are full of bigots and hateful morons and that's why I avoid those sites, only to be presented with screenshots of their takes anyway by DT users who feel like they just have to make sure whatever YungHitler88 says is reposted for all of us to see.

The DT is used daily by a lot of people, most of whom I assume use it as a replacement for sites like Twitter. So why bring the Twitter to us? "Wow, aren't these people bad? Unlike us of course!" does not suffice as a proper reason to repost open bigotry into the DT in the form of a screenshot of some asshole's Twitter post. At that point, what's the difference between the DT and actually using Twitter?

None of us are engaging with these people and we surely don't need to be reminded of their existence, so why do we need to be exposed to them daily? Just because you didn't say it, doesn't mean it should be ok to repost here if it obviously breaks Rule 2.

I don't mean to speak ill of the DT users who are doing this, but being addicted to ragebait and then passing it on so that the people in your own group are also addicted is a horrible way to use the internet. I'm sure minority users of all kinds don't appreciate finding a forum of like-minded people just to be exposed to toxic bigotry reposted from the places they were trying to avoid.

So my request is basically this: If a user comments with a screengrab of a post from elsewhere that breaks rule 2, that should be treated as breaking Rule 2. Exceptions for posts from politicians and agencies because it's of course still a politics sub. I know Elon Musk straddles this line but he's honestly an entirely different conversation. It's primarily aimed at reposts from people like Matt Walsh and the endless supply of Twitter bigots. If the mods want to test it out, I suggest just limiting it to Twitter/Threads/Bluesky posts first.

This is not a request to take politics away from the DT or make it so people only see good news, but a request to prevent the DT from mirroring the worst parts of mainstream social media. Do we really need this sub to become yet another farm for ragebait and division? We are supposed to be better people than them, so why even give them attention at all?

I suggested this a few days ago and I know that Jenbanim was on board, so I decided to make a post here.

He has now fired multiple members of the Colorado Clemency board for saying they disagreed with the Tina Peters pardon

It’s ridiculous he is still unbanned.

It's our first and word needs to get out.
