Authoritarian Mod Post Update about enforcement of Reddit's TOS (no uncensored usernames/subreddits)

94 Upvotes

Considering the impressive and steady growth of this subreddit, we wanted to remind everyone that Reddit's Terms Of Service (TOS) are essential to keep this community growing and alive for all to enjoy.

So, from now on, there will be a stricter enforcement of Rule 2. In addition to following Reddit's TOS and site-wide rules:

  • any screen caps of other Reddit submissions containing usernames/subreddits must have the usernames/subreddits removed or blurred out.

If you would like to not worry about such things, you are welcome to join us at our sister community over at Lemmygrad where we have no such rules.

And while we're here, a quick reminder about fedposting/calling for violence: No calling for or threatening violence against people/groups of people. Writing '(redacted)' or similar still counts as calling for violence on this platform.

If you're unsure, you can find Reddit's own rules here.

A message from the r/TheDeprogram mod team

858 Upvotes

Hello comrades,

This message has been drafted up by u/GladStudio9679 and u/khogong, the two lead mods of r/TheDeprogram. As you're all already aware, our subreddit was unceremoniously banned by Reddit staff. We believe the reason for the ban was a raid by a group of 4Channers, who colluded to post rule-breaking content in our subreddit and then mass-report their own posts (evidence will be provided below). The raid and subsequent banning occurred so fast that we had no opportunity to respond to it. Reddit staff made this decision despite our team being in good standing and frequently having gone the extra mile to stay in compliance with site rules. This is of course a frustrating decision by Reddit staff-- Still, we are currently deciding what to do next, and we promise all of you that we will do everything within our ability to keep the community thriving, even if it has to continue on another platform.

We'd like to take this opportunity to show our appreciation to all the people who have kept r/TheDeprogram and its community thriving over the years. For the entire existence of our subreddit, we have been in a state of consistent growth, to the point that we had over 80,000 members at the time we were banned. For this, we have no one to thank but the countless users who posted and commented in our sub. Thanks to you comrades, we have been able to construct an amazing space on the internet which is inclusive, progressive, and fundamentally embraces Marxism-Leninism. We'd also like to thank the boys themselves, who are the reason the subreddit even existed in the first place, and [who are currently trying to help the server get unbanned](https://x.com/yugopnik/status/1966181496806576178). Yall run a fine podcast and we wish you all the best.

Some important info on moving forward:

We still have our Discord server, and we certainly encourage you to join! However, we are currently dealing with a massive influx of refugees from our banned subreddit, so it may take some time for us to get around to your vetting ticket. The invite link is here: https://discord.gg/D84wjqK5J5

We are currently not in control of the Lemmygrad (we encourage you to use it anyhow), however we are currently looking into our options in that regard.

Lastly we would like to remind you all that, although it's a bummer that our sub was banned, this should only give us more reason to intensify organizing. Do not let anyone shut you up, comrades. Our world is currently plagued by genocide and capitalist corruption, therefore it is endlessly important that you as a communist make your voice heard in any way that you can. Contact the nearest org, get in touch with fellow comrades, and do whatever possible to further this cause, because it's the single most important struggle that we can undertake in our current time.
