News/Announcements Addition of Rule 7: Please censor any slurs within screenshots or use the NSFW or Spoiler filter.

56 Upvotes

It's kind of been an unwritten rule in our thread for a while now, but going forward it should be official.

To be clear: Direct use of slurs is not allowed under Reddit's Guidelines and will be removed. However because our sub focuses on highlighting the the ableism of other people's posts further clarification is needed.

If your screenshot posts have slurs within them you have two options.

OPTION 1: Please censor any slurs in the same way you'd be required to censor usernames of non public figures.
OPTION 2: Please use the Spoiler or NSFW filter before posting. Unfiltered posts that contain uncensored slurs will have the NSFW filter applied by the mod team if not done by the OP.

Crossposts that don't violate Rule 4 MUST have the NSFW or Spoiler filter if there is a slur present.

For comments.
- As said before, slurs said by yourself to attack others are not allowed under Rule 1.
- Uncensored indirect slurs, such as referencing someone else can only be done on NSFW threads.
- For non-NSFW or Spoiler threads please censor indirect slurs.
- Failure to abide by for comments will result in the comment being removed.

"Which filter should I use?"

That depends on the severity of the post your showcasing. If its a singular occurrence, spoiler will be fine. However if slurs are used frequently or used in conjunction with vile hate speech. It should be marked as NSFW.
Blurred or censored slurs do not need a filter.

News/Announcements All links to X.com (formally known as Twitter) are now banned.

153 Upvotes

Based on the responses and upvotes we received here. All links that send users to X or Twitter are now blacklisted. Posts that contain links from these URL's will be automatically removed and a notification will be sent to your inbox. Rule 4 has also been amended to reflect this.

As of Today: January 23rd 2025 - Only screenshots and directly uploaded videos will be allowed for content that comes from those websites. (Rule 3 to censor the names of non-public figures still applies).

Be aware that any attempt to subvert the automod ban by using spaces out (e.g x .com / username) or writing out punctuation (e.g if you write "DOT com") will result in a temporary timeout for first time offenders.

This rule applies to both thread posts and comments.

Harmful Stereotypes OP claimed his ADHD wife decided to buy hundreds of dollars worth of groceries for new keto diet, and left it out to rot before napping. OP caught contradicting himself…he also claimed the food was for his epileptic daughter.

Personal experience with ableists. Another typical "bullying good" that thinks it's okay to pick on people for being "weak".
