    Have you actually read the rules for this sub? They are just to the right. Give them a quick read and tell me where this “rule” exists. It doesn’t.

    It was acknowledged in the ban that it was a purely editorial/ political ban.

      It could fall under rule 4, reposts, since it literally is all the same topic of “Joe Biden too old, receives calls to step down”, which we totally already knew. Mind you, the media is spamming it too, but that doesn’t make it okay.

      That said, perhaps we need a new rule? No exceeding x number of posts on a topic every however long, perhaps. It’s not difficult to scroll the sub and see if a topic already has dozens of threads by other people on it or not.

        No I dont think we need a new rule. I think we need moderation that doesn’t confuse their role as moderators with being filters to ensure a specific political view gets through.

          Yeah, it seems you really want there to be lots and lots of threads on this, but no. That makes for a shitty community. That’s not conversation, it’s spam. Nobody clicks on every single version of different articles all saying the same basic shit, they just skip it.

          Some threads=good. Shitloads of threads=spam.
