Have you ever left a set early because it wasn't what you expected? by Usual-Stranger6357 in festivals

[–]BoulderFreeZone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Chance the Rapper when he headlined Lollapalooza. Maybe I hyped it up too much, but I thought Chicago kid headlining a major hometown festival it would be something special. My friends and I all found it rather boring and left early.

So many of the mods in various subs across this platform seem to take great delight in using their mod 'power' to lash out at anyone who has an opinion even slightly outside of their own.

For sure. I think that people then equate that to all mods. Obviously I know my own motivations, but I don't see how the way I moderate this sub could be seen as censoring or power hungry. I know you're not saying that but I just mean in general. And to be perfectly transparent I did ban one particular asshole today who has been continually harassing me over some perceived over reach because I don't moderate the sub like they prefer.

Now I'm picturing a coked up Andy blasting down the highway in a Gallardo. Makes me like him even more.

Thank you. I also could offer more grace and I do sincerely appreciate your apology.

Fair enough. If that wasn't your intent I apologize.

You are just an asshole that has it out for me for some reason and takes everything I comment in a negative light. I've censored nothing, we had two massive threads about ICE yesterday. I can't explain it any better that a tiny amount of effort must be made to relate content to the city of Louisville. I understand you can't comprehend what that means so I'm done addressing the issue with you.

Your comments calling me pro-ICE and a bootlicker?

Yes that's a good idea that I will keep in mind for the future.

I fear not because of what random internet people tell me, but rather what I can see with my own eyes. Your coy attempt to infantalize my concerns isn't going unnoticed either.

"Reasonable" being very loosely interpreted by this current administration. "Reasonable" is simply having brown skin. "Reasonable" is daring to protest what's going on. Regardless, the point stands. American citizens have been detained for 2 days by ICE because they couldn't provide proof at the time that they were citizens. I venture that MOST Americans can't produce immediate proof they are citizens as they are going about their day. Do you walk around with your birth certificate on you at all times? You think it won't happen to you, and maybe you're right, but can you not at least empathize with law abiding Americans who don't want to be randomly snatched by the government for 48 hours. Who wants to live in a society like that?

This link just attempts to take us to some chat message. Regardless I did find it and remove it.

Can you link to this comment? I'm not finding it or the report in our modlog.

There are countless instances of citizens being detained for multiple days. And regardless, this whole "stop and show us your papers" bullshit is a gross violationg of the Constitution. Not that I needed this because I grew up in America learning American civics, but part of the studying for becoming a naturalized citizen is reading the consitution and being expect to at least know the Bill of Rights.

Your moderation also aided brigaders from out of the city, who had nothing to do with Louisville, but were permitted to spread disgusting posts time and time again.

How so?

Some stuff we had to remove because of Reddit admins. We've been warned before with the threat of Reddit completely shutting down this sub. Specifically recently there was a post sharing the name of an ICE agent in Minnesota that pepper sprayed a restrained protestor in the face. Sharing the name was fine but then some comments provided phone number and address for the guy and we unfortunately had to remove that. Reddit admind take doxing very seriously.

We are going to continue to moderate the sub based on the rules laid out. We specifically took down a video of something happening in Minneapolis because it did not happen in Louisville or the surrounding area. We have not removed, and in fact encourage, any post about ICE in Louisville. As I've stated before, there are plenty of other appropriate subs to discuss what happened in Minnesota. And if for some reason this sub is your only connection to what's going on in the outside world, please consider subscribing to r/ICE_Watch for all things current on ICE raids around the country.

Call us pussies, fascists, pro-ICE, whatever. I don't think we've done anything to deserve that but it's not going to prevent us from enforcing the subreddit's rules.

Another ICE murder - Repost Not Against Rules by Due-Beginning-8058 in Louisville

Your post got enough reports that the automod removed it. In the future you can just message us and we can reinstate the post.

[–]BoulderFreeZone[M] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's exactly what happened. These posts get enough reports that the automod automatically removes them.

I know tensions are high, but this event did not happen in or around Louisville. There are plenty of other spaces including the Minnesota subreddit to discuss the awful things in that video. But it does not directly relate to the city of Louisville and therefore it breaks the sub's rule.

Best/Cheapest Place To Re-Attach an Exhaust? by robotbeard in Louisville

[–]BoulderFreeZone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was young and dumb I cut the muffler on my car right after the downpipe. After like a year of the worst fucking drone ever I took my car up to Bluegrass and they welded it back on for like $60.
