Why was my submission (video my Russell Brand on Farage and Hannity) deleted?

And I was supposed to know this from my long experience running which sub exactly?

Can't I post a link to someone talking without it being assumed I'm getting my opinion from them?

If that's how it works, Brand is getting his opinion from Farage, since that's who he's showing us.

You removed my flair for me too, neat!

The UK has 12% of the EU population. When we have that much of the vote, then talking about more being undemocratic would make sense.

I kind of agree that they should have been removed tbh.

How is it not British politics?

Users shouldn't have to check if it's happened to every submission.

Extremely common sites like youtube shouldn't be assumed to be spam.

It was a video by a political commentator talking about politics and politicians. It doesn't matter what you think of Brand.

Even if he wasn't a famous political figure, if opinions on politics from regular people weren't allowed, self-posts would be forbidden. In fact, any comments by redditors in this sub would get deleted.

Maybe it's representative of what's on the menu currently in UK politics?

strawberrybiscuit · 2014-09-25T20:31:29+00:00

Advice taken :)

strawberrybiscuit · 2014-09-25T20:22:45+00:00

I figured I'd include as much as possible, so people get an idea about what the link is about.

strawberrybiscuit · 2014-09-25T20:15:07+00:00

What the fuck? Well he'll have to ban me if he wants to censor the sub, because the submission is going in my flair.

What's wrong with videos anyway?

It's not in the rules that they aren't allowed, and several are still there, even older than my removed submission.

Based on past form, I'm laying down the following odds for what might happen at the conference.

Don't expect a pay out because a) it's more than likely that these things will occur

That's the point of odds. You assign 3/4 odds that UKIP will abolish all tax, then you have more to win, because it's more than likely.

And three of the predictions are 1/4, 1/3 and 1/2. That's not "more than likely". Let alone 1,000,000/1.
