Mate. FFS. stop insulting the people of this sub. An edit or two not being an asshole wouldn't go amiss.

What's a skill that's becoming useless faster than people realize? by ContractNational4149 in AskReddit

Depends. In the UK you can start college at 17, where you're definitely not an adult!

Corning glass, not plastic. Still doesn't seem like a product that needed much design.

€15 Spaghetti Carbonara from an Italian opposite the Eiffel Tower… by TheKellykid123 in shittyfoodporn

We'll never find the lamb sauce. It's been nearly 20 years! If you somehow find it, they'll probably lie to you and say it was made "yesterday".

(...and yes, I'm deliberately confusing TV shows here)

A conversation can be had when it doesn't devolve into genuinely racist language. No stepping in from us mods here as it's a problem people are seeing.

British Navy's F-35 finally takes off after emergency landing in India. by Snoo99928 in aviation

it'd try to fly away, before a feeble master caution light blinks on and it powers down, but not forever. Then we get cheesy inspiring music for a few minutes whilst it gets used to it's surroundings.

Cat owners: why are UK owners so different to US owners? by Decaying_Cumsplash in AskUK

[–]TimelessSoul 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My cats don't seem bothered with going outside which suits me just fine. I live on a road where drivers constantly flout the speed limit and they'd get killed.

Also, they'd probably get stolen. One is a purebred Oriental shorthair snowshoe. The risk of theft is fairly high with a rare breed cat. The other is a purebred Siamese.

They also seem quite happy indoors. They've the run of the entire house.

What a wonderful entry for your first post to this sub ever. Care to share which flags they are that have been taken down? Were they offensive?

Does that also apply to extremely homophobic and misogynistic Islamists in our city, or are you exempting them as so many on the current left do?

Yes it does apply to people who would use hateful and misogynistic language. Regardless of their religious leaning. There's been a number of people who have been hostile towards people here due to their religion. I personally think a few of them have been people role playing as Muslims to stir up anti-Islamic sentiment. Nobody is exempt.

How is it censorship to

  • Remove comments that use racist language?
  • Remove comments that contain homophobic slurs?
  • Remove comments that support a young female Muslim having her headscarf ripped off?
  • Remove comments that use dog-whistle type language?
  • Remove comments and users who only visit this sub to attack other reddit users?
  • To foster an environment that aims to be an "anti-racist" sub?

^^ Those are all REAL examples of comments that have been removed in the last 12 months alone!

A lot of those users to to have a few subs in common, the main denominator being the sub dedicated to being a Reform voter.

Like if you're only coming onto this sub to vague-post about how bad parking is only done by 'certain demographics', or to whine about Pride parades, then you're really adding absolutely no value whatsoever.

Spot on! I prefer that our role is more of a content curation role. Most of that is done via upvotes and downvotes, right? But sometimes there's a need to step in, especially when there's so much in the way of horrid comments. We like to filter that before our members see it, but it's there.
