    Mods remove a post from /r/worldnews about Musk pushing for the US to leave NATO because it’s “not the appropriate subreddit”…? Excuse me, what the fuck???

      /r/WorldNews is for non-US-political news, which makes some calls fucking weird. Yes, this impacts the rest of the world… but so does quite a fucking lot of US political news. Sharply drawing that fuzzy line is hard and these people must be tired.

        Bro I was on Reddit when they were a fledgling service and bot-boosting to increase apparent traffic. Considering how Reddit has evolved in recent years, I’m frankly not inclined to give them in general, or /u/spez in particular, the benefit of the doubt.
