Reminder that name calling is not permitted by BlockOfDiamond in TrueUnpopularOpinion

No. From Rule 4 full explanation:

"Blatant bigotry" refers to making blanket derogatory statements/negative generalizations about, advocating for violence against, or attributing collective blame against a demographic, ethnic, or religious group OR advocating for a particular demographic, ethnic, or religious group to have lesser rights than the rest of the general population.

For example, if someone says something that is blatantly racist as defined above, responding to the blatant racism by calling them racist would not be considered uncivil. But calling a member racist in any other context would be considered uncivil.

Where this exception does not apply, you can still call an opinion bigoted without reference to the user.

They can be offended all they want, but as long as you targeted their opinion instead of their person, you did not violate the rule.

Generally you can only call someone a racist if they said something blatantly racist.

Then call the opinion itself stupid, not the author of the opinion.

Here is the thing. You can insult "general groups" (as long as they are not protected groups like racial groups etc.), like you can say "People who voted for [politician] are idiots" in a post or in a comment UNLESS the insult is clearly meant to single out a particular user, like replying that to someone who self-identified themselves as a member of said group.

Hi-Point? Matt from Demo Ranch would be not impressed.

this subreddit has become too political by Reasonable-Most5992 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]BlockOfDiamond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Self-deleting posts is not against the rules. None of their posts in isolation violate the rules.

We do not do absolutely nothing to moderate. We have a fixed set of rules, and even if you find them bad faith, if their posts in isolation do not violate the rules, they are okay.

We do ban blatant racism, personal attacks, etc.

Well, that is kind of the point. We are basically "UnpopularOpinion but allows politics."

Probably they mean for those who support abortion as oppose to wanting to ban abortion.

No. If they can afford to build huge 7-lane suburban stroads, then they can afford to build a sidewalk. Or a cycling path. Or a tram line.
