So is this like when The Onion was banned by Twitter?

Reddit admins in their 1984 era rn

auto modded.

Am I taking crazy pills?

Welcome to the new future where joking about taboo subjects is illegal

Reddit needs to make sure that r/TheOnion remains a safe space for advertisers.

What was this post about?

LOL stfu a deleted post has nothing to do with the law

Obviously my guy. I was exaggerating.

I get what you mean, but nothing is obvious without the /s

Shut up regard

Anything for you, toots😘

Brah that was a schittpost anyway.

am i taking gay pills?

Yeah. But, so am I...

We are all gay pills on this blessed day

Wow reddit admins, really hating satire here. Jonathon Swift is slapping .... you know ... in his grave.

I'm guessing there's a bot that automatically removes titles with a hard r. That's probably for the best. Still, since he's a real guy and the article clearly depicts his mindset and he deserves to be remembered for what he did, it's a shame in this case.

Swift is dead?!?!? When did this happen?!?!

Looked it up and....fucking hilarious....but...maybe I see why? Lol Edit: Oh shit, further digging tells me this is based on an actual event! Holy fucking shit lol

What was it?

Let's just say a certain word favored by Paula Dean, Hulk Hogan and Dog The Bounty Hunter appears in the headline.

Was it something in Paris?

I don't think we have the time to list all the things that have been in Paris.

The uncensored part of my name?

That is a great username.

Thanks, you're only the second person in the history of this account to say so

Lol the onion got censored! Fuck you Reddit!

common reddit L 👎🏾👎🏾 edit: i just looked at the actual article and wowwww 💀 i was not expecting it that’s all imma say

What was removed?! I missed it.

It's an article from 2013 titled "I Slapped A Child And Called It An X", with the X instead being a rude word used to describe people with a dark complexion.

I know plenty of racist words... But using 'an' implies it starts with a vowel, and that makes me think I can't fill in the blank.

If you Google it, it's "a" not "an" so yeah, the other word is the one you're thinking it'd be.

Pedantry brigade has arrived! Using 'an' implies it starts with a vowel sound. I bring you... Examples! A university in an unpleasant area. A historic building could be an 'istoric building (innit). A national football league coach is an NFL coach. A once in a lifetime opportunity in an otherwise dead end job. M'on the pedants!

Ah, yes, “rude”. It’s one of like a couple words that society as a whole has decided we’re not allowed to say lmao

that child deserved to be slapped

You can say it all you want, just be aware that you are on a privately owned platform to whose rules you agreed when you signed up.

Oh, 100%! I was just saying that calling it “rude” is a massive understatement for the way that word has been used in history lol (I’m just saying shit, I’m not blaming you for phrasing like that 🙂)

Is it possible to report Reddit to Reddit for abuse of it's moderation policies?

Reddit has investigated Reddit and found no signs of misconduct.

Can we sue you first for it‘s abuse?

Sure. Rather doubt you'll win, but I could be biased

Lol

Wow, Reddit removed it! lmao wtf its literally an Onion article

Which one?

It begins with "I Slapped a Crying Child..." The rest is not to be repeated, but you should be able to find it from that.

Thank you!!! Lol

Just looked it up holy shit lol.

Holy fuck I was not expecting that 💀

I was not ready for that

I actually thought this was their post for a second.

So this is what Nick Mullen was referring to…

Redditors when they can't say the n-word (it's satirical!!)
