So when will they be quarantining every other political thread and board on the Internet?

Dear Mods,

We want to let you know that your community has been quarantined, as outlined in Reddits Content Policy.

The reason for the quarantine is that over the last few months we have observed repeated rule-breaking behavior in your community and an over-reliance on Reddit admins to manage users and remove posts that violate our content policy, including content that encourages or incites violence. Most recently, we have observed this behavior in the form of encouragement of violence towards police officers and public officials in Oregon. This is not only in violation of our site-wide policies, but also your own community rules (rule #9). You can find violating content that we removed in your mod logs.

...

Next steps:

You unambiguously communicate to your subscribers that violent content is unacceptable.

You communicate to your users that reporting is a core function of Reddit and is essential to maintaining the health and viability of the community.

Following that, we will continue to monitor your community, specifically looking at report rate and for patterns of rule-violating content.

Undertake any other actions you determine to reduce the amount of rule-violating content.

Following these changes, we will consider an appeal to lift the quarantine, in line with the process outlined here.


I mean it's hard to argue against this. It sounds like reaction to the Oregon stuff was the last straw for them?

It strikes me as difficult to believe mods of a board like that will be willing to actually police behavior of people who hold similar beliefs to themselves.

Its a haven for trolls more than anything else. You can be a conservative or a trump supporter and still be a totally decent person, but the folks on that subreddit have no other goal than to inflame and instigate.

If they shut it down nothing of value will be lost.

idk, the powers that run the internet seem almost frighteningly okay with people advocating violence against other politicians and officials, which is why James Hodgkinson's FB page didn't get deleted like it would have been if it addressed liberals instead of conservatives. And even after Hodgkinson shot up that Republican gathering, you still don't see action taken against comparable accounts. Hell, the FB group he was in (Terminate the Republican Party) apparently even celebrated the anniversary of his attack.

I lost my healthcare, haven't been to the doctor in a while, when I did get the healthcare I got shitty poor person healthcare. My whole family? 10 year old sister, hasn't been to the doctor in 3 years.

Directly Republican's fault.

Thankfully the Republicans haven't busted up my union yet. I get paid $13 an hour thanks to my union. I hear every Republican I work with complain about their union dues, which doesn't come close to eclipsing the raises for this very low skill job.

My bosses son is facing 20 years for weed. She also smokes weed. Guess what? Hardcore Republican. It's her fault her own son is in jail.

Turns out voting for stupid shit has consequences.

Never posted on TD, and completely hate Donald Trump but this is actually ridiculous. Good job ensuring more people vote for Trump in 2020.

Until recently in missouri if you got with more than a couple grams and you were anywhere in the vicinity of a school, a park, or public housing, there was a mandatory minimum sentence of life in prison

Theres ridiculous mandatory minimums like that all over the US when it comes to drug related crimes

Basically it is no longer monetized, doesn't show up in popular, doesn't show subreddit posts in general search results, but you can search for and visit the subreddit. You just get a warning on the page asking if you'd like to visit.

They can still post to their hearts are content, Reddit is simply no longer broadcasting that subreddit to the rest of Reddit in general. Which is easily reversed if the subreddit mods show they'll actually moderate
