YouTube and Reddit are sued for allegedly enabling the racist mass shooting in Buffalo that left 10 dead::The complementary lawsuits claim that the massacre in 2022 was made possible by tech giants, a local gun shop, and the gunman’s parents.
That rule boils down to “be nice to people lol” and is intentionally vague so Reddit can apply it unfairly, as they always do. It does NOT ban the n-word, and the word shows up everywhere on that dump. Admins do not do any amount of moderating so these rules are mostly for show.

Not sure what subs you’re on but I can’t remember the last time I saw that word outside of the r/4chan mod bot saying the comment was removed for it and they were quarantined.
Considering I got permabanned for saying if we wanted to find out if the brazen bull was a real thing we could test it on child molesters the rule is very much enforced. That’s way less bad than the nword.
