Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
Used a script to overwrite old comments to finalize my switch to Lemmy, and got this message from one of the subreddit that i commented.
Yes my intention is to annoy and create awareness. After i delete my account, Reddit is not going to get to keep my pearls of wisdom, or shenanigans. I hope more people edit their old comments to something like [moved to Lemmy].
Why does it have to be something wrong to fuck shit up for fun? Im not hurting anyone, im not bullying a individual person (except u/awkwardturtle but that asshole started) im not making actually harmful posts or comments, im just having a good time by disturbing your good time a little.
There is no logical reasoning why i shouldn't do it except that you don't like it, wich is kinda a you problem.
It's this right here:
That sounds like someone who has experienced powerlessness and reacts to cruelty visited upon them by becoming cruelty.
Someone who responds to the injustice and no doubt indignation they feel when aggrieved by things and people more powerful than they while people and procedures who're supposed prevent that sort of thing say nothing.
Maybe your father hits you. Maybe you have gender issues. Maybe you are just an asshole.
Maybe there is something about yourself you hate and so you lash out inappropriately in the hope some dope will punch you in the face. How very Tyler Durden. Perhaps you want to feel pain. Perhaps you can't stand standing on the outside while seemingly the whole world pummels down on you so you decide to fuck yourself up to at least join in on the fun.
I mean, for all you brag of your detached stature, your blasé laissez-fuck-shit-attitude, your own
indicates you're reaching out for connection.
You're dismissive and didactic to we plebes who act distracted by your stroking abstract structures of oppression
but the lesson here (if less than clear) is you say things in the want we hear.
You want us to acknowledge you, to see you, to react.
You come off as real lonely.
First of all, "logical reasoning". Trying to PA=¬O¬A your way to justifying being an asshole. Shut up, nerd.
Second you're begging the question that you should.
Even presuming your position supposes you get a gain from your shitty behavior.
What is that gain? Is giggles all you get from this?
You don't think the negative cost of people not taking kindly to you is worth missing on whatever you get from these tantrums, so you either don't care what people think, or you think you've already lost whatever chance you had at a positive connection already.
Since "trying to get a rise" is caring what someone thinks (and wanting it to be "...asshole.") it isn't the first one.
Would you like to tell me why you think people wouldn't like you even if you weren't a shit?
If you felt comfortable with the centre you wouldn't be so edgy, so why don't you tell me what it is about people that makes you want to engineer rejection and reaction from them?
