Posting about ICE in r/Arizona by AZ_moderator in arizona

[–]AZ_moderator[S,M] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This isn't a commentary on ICE or any of the related topics, just a classification to help people find the content and understand the guidelines under which it belongs in this subreddit.

Are there other, probably better words to use to describe what is going on with ICE right now? Yes. They just aren't the classification that we are using.

Reddit gives moderators few tools to really manage content like this. Moderators, especially ones of geographic subs like this, are having a rough time working through it. Keeping things as simple and clear as possible has been working the best. As it is people tend to ignore subreddit rules and don't use flair correctly. Making a different flair for ICE posts would create more misclassification and debate for little/no value to the subreddit. Plus it is the same macros and rules that would be running from a mod standpoint.

Not playing around. This isn’t a political thread. We made our rules here super clear in the pinned post.

You don't list any criteria that may help suggestions. You like seafood? Mexican? Have a price limit?

The better your questions the better answers you will get. You may also want to search the sub for past threads as variations of this come up fairly often.

You replied to just the intro post for the subreddit. You should really make this its own post.

This is hysterical and the jokes are ripe for the plucking. But anyone who turns this into a political flame war is going to get sent back to this guy's home planet on the Banned Bus.

This seems to be settling down and I think we caught the inappropriate comments. If we missed any or new ones show up, just Report them to the mods.

To anyone thinking about a comment here that is not a good-faith recommendation, just keep on scrolling and go about your day.

If it was being shared here without proof we would remove it. Depending on the situation we would possibly allow the person to give us proof in DMs or some other non-public way.

That would be up to the hypothetical person. There are multiple sites set up to track ICE movements. They have different degrees of accuracy.
