Meta Breaking Rule 3 Will Now Result in Permanent Ban.

102 Upvotes

We still have people violating Rule 3, despite there's literally being a pinned AutoMod comment warning against it, and it being a rule plastered almost everywhere within the subreddit. The rule is there for a reason, it's non-negotiable. I cannot make this any clearer:

So from now on, if you break this rule you will receive a permanent ban immediately to encourage you to have to message the ModMail and acknowledge that you understand that you violated this rule, and not to do it again. Once that's acknowledged, you will be unbanned but will already have one warning. If you don't inquire about it, cool, you'll stay banned. If you also do it again, you will be permanently banned again, and it won't be repealed, you will also be muted.

Meta Just To Clarify:

226 Upvotes

This is not a meme subreddit.

Lately, almost every other post has been "Off-Topic or Irrelevant" relating to the submission guidelines, and not within standard as what actually qualifies (as an example) of "Not How Girls Work".

Q: "What is "Not How Girls Work?":

A: ""Not How Girls Work" is when people make sweeping generalisations about "all women", _or make any baseless assumptions or conclusions about a specific woman based off of their misguided assumptions of "all women_".

This does not include low-effort memes, "Bad Women's Anatomy", or clips of podcasts/posts from "Manosphere" public figures."

This platform is slowing being derailed into posts consisting of any random meme that remotely mentions a girl or woman, or screenshots of Twitter posts from Red-Pill Manosphere public figures who purposely grift and make money using those talking points. People are also trying to pass off completely irrelevant posts as submission, thinking if they just mask it by putting "That's not how [insert topic] works" in the title, it will be valid— That's not how this subreddit works (no pun intended). You can't force posts to fit if they don't.

Please read the subreddit description.

If you have to put "Not sure if this belongs here" in the title, it probably doesn't. Please read the subreddit rules and the subreddit description first, then clarify with the moderators if you are still unsure.

I understand this is a large subreddit, therefore the temptation and karma-count is there to post any and everything, but the subreddit will start cracking down on users who continuously post completely "off-topic" content after warnings.

Anybody who is suspected of being a karma-farmer or a bot/novelty account will immediately be permanent banned, you're not going to "eat" off of this sub.

Thank you!

I'm not trying to dunk on anyone but I had to share this as the person literally did the whole "I want women to love sex and be ready to go 24/7 but be saving themselves for me" thing unironically. Names have been obscured to protect the guilty (apart from myself) :)

Found On Social media "women are born with value"

Who placed value onto women just for being born girls???

Men did

Who told men that in order to be worthy,they have to be successful??????

Men did .

Why is value being placed on women as babies anyway?

And from what I heard/read rich men like to be with other rich people.

They might sleep with women who lack wealth but will not marry them.

Idk what reality men live in...but it's not the correct one

Lastly.

Women are human, not objects

But

If a woman (lock) is disgusting for sleeping with a lot of men (keys).

Then wouldn't men be (the keys) disgusting too,for going into too many unknown doors (women) without knowing anything about what's behind the doors??

Diseases ....??? Or is just getting inside the door is all that matters?

If we want to treat people like objects.

Keys get rusty....or at least the bad ones...

Might turn colors like green...

And yes you have people Justifying it under comments calling this man a weirdo and saying how a child shouldn't give birth.

Yelp child molesters are more comfortable than ever.

What has happened to society.

Every day I believe a good chunk of society is not against the rape of children (girls in particular) and believe children can actually consent to adults and don't believe children lack a developmental understanding or just don't care

I don't care how people try to spin it,

If you're above the age of 22 dating teenagers you're disgusting.

I don't care that it's legal.

I don't care if you say " I wasn't trying to date a teenager,we just happen to meet".

I don't care if you see your older partner as the acceptable older adult to date someone too young for them.

" My partner isn't/wasn't predatory '.

I don't care how mature the teen is .

18 is a child, late adolescence.

You can't be so disgusted at the thought of being with a 17yr old but are completely okay with an 18yr old.

" People need to become an adult at some point "

Accurate but it's not 18.

What's the difference between 17,16 and 18???

If 18 is an adult,why can't 16 be an adult?

It's always wrong,if legality matters so much to you

Then,the law can declare a 10yr old to be an adult tomorrow and you probably would agree with it.

I work with. md files every day for coding and vibe coding, and I got tired of every Markdown viewer having the same stark, utilitarian look.

So I started building one that makes Markdown feel more like an editorial page. It has pink, marigold and forest themes, depending on what I'm in the mood for.

I initially imagined it for women who might want something softer and more expressive, but really it's for anyone who wants their Markdown files to feel less brutalist and boring without losing the functionality.

The screenshot shows the same Markdown file in both apps: Margdown(working title) on the left and Cursor on the right.

Which one would you genuinely prefer to read in? And does the pink, editorial design make the left one feel any less serious or professional to you?

Women like her who "advocate" for men ,

Are normalizing men being predatory towards young girls/women.

This mindset of women being old at 30 is an excuse men made up to justify going after women and girls who are too young for them.

There was another woman who justified men dating younger because of a video of an older woman talking about men.

There is only two women I've seen who advocate for men but are against men going after teen girls and younger women and guess what ....their male followers Don't like that

And people like her have this false understanding of women's biology.

The reason men don't like women who are over 25 or even at 25 is because of predatory behaviors and attractions labeled as "standards".

This woman in particular always makes excuses for men.

And literally comes up with random reasons why men behave like children.

If someone tells you to clean up the kitchen ( bottles) and you just look around and see mess everywhere,food everywhere..... common sense doesn't click and think " maybe I should put the food up"?.

Or if he was going to eat, why didn't he either still put the food away just case others might want some or throw the box away if nothing was really Left...

People really do allow men to be dumb.

People excuse men being unable to do basic things and it's gross and embarrassing.

Men talk about being the leaders or smarter than women but can't use their brain to figure out if they should clean up a kitchen or put food away?

( If he didn't know if he had to clean the kitchen and not just the bottles, he could have asked," do you want me to clean everything and not just the bottles).

" You didn't tell me, you didn't tell me".

Omg.🙄
