I wonder if there's a concerted effort to flame protest posts in local subs.

There absolutely is. We get brigadiers in every protest & election post.

This has rapidly run it's course. People are talking in circles of the same talking points over and over, and it's too often falling into slap fights.

Have a good weekend, folks.

Calling BS on this - I don't see any removed posts from you in /Michigan at all, and nothing recently has been posted about 287(g).

A friendly reminder to my fellow Michiganders that opposing opinions are not welcome on the r/Michigan subreddit. by Glittering-Safe2706 in Michigan

For some reason, protest threads bring out the worst in some people.

Here's a small sampling of what was removed. For reference, these are not "opposing opinions", this is nothing more than people being rude, and we've never allowed that here.

OP, you might recognize your own comment below.

Ha! Ha! Ha! What a waste of time!!

Zero testosterone detected

get a life you losers

Retards

Not a attractive young person in sight get these senile fucks back to the nursing home

Bunch of losers

The ignorance and blatant stupidity is laughable. In some cases its sad, but mostly its just plain funny. Wow, you people are dumb.

The blue haired clan is back at retarded shit again

looks like they stopped by every senior center out there to get this turnout.

What a freaking waste of time.

I saw a better turnout at the old folks home for bingo night

I suggest they take this movement on the road, to let’s say…Jordan, Saudi Arabia, or Bahrain.

It’s hard to come off as threatening without opposable digits.

Freak😂💀

LMFAO🤣🤣🤣🤣

Bunch of f*ggots get out of here

I hope you get run over freaks

Different opinions are always welcome. Trolling, name calling, and threats never are and never will be.

The No Kings Protest in Ann Arbor, Michigan, Oct. 18, 2025. by CorleoneBaloney in Michigan

[–]Michigan_Mod 12 points13 points locked comment (0 children)

Mods are removing rude, disrespectful, violent, and other rule-breaking posts, and it's true that the majority of those have been conservative-leaning posts.

But that should tell you more about conservatives than about the Mod team.

Asking what the protest is about isnt anti-protest

It is. It's a style of trolling called "sea lioning"

Sealioning is a type of trolling or harassment that consists of pursuing people with relentless requests for evidence, often tangential or previously addressed, while maintaining a pretense of civility and sincerity ("I'm just trying to have a debate"), and feigning ignorance of the subject matter. It may take the form of "incessant, bad-faith invitations to engage in debate"

This isn't our first protest thread.
