the mod said they will unban him if he remove the post in /r/viking
“God”: Based. Cool. Trad. The foundation of Western Civilization. Protected by the first amendment. Maybe we’d all be a little better of we honored him more.
“God” but in Arabic: Extremist. Scary. Woke. A corrupting influence on the global politics. Clear and present danger. We need to expunge it from our nation and the world.
Wait to they find out about Arabic numbers and start banning upvotes and downvotes
In Germany someone trolled a mayor candidate of one of the Nazi parties with that. He fell for it
https://www.politico.eu/article/far-right-german-candidate-promises-to-get-rid-of-arabic-numerals
That applies to pretty much every arabic word.
Or dildos that look Arabic…
It’s not just limited to Arabic words: Arabic Numbers are scary, too…
“72% of Americans say children shouldn’t be taught Arabic numerals in school.”
Can’t wait to do algebra with Roman numerals.
The funniest part of this is they’re literally the same god.
It’s all different forms of YHWH, Judaism, Islam, Christianity.
It’s all the same god with the fanfic changed up a little.
Don’t you dare attempt to explain that to an Evangelical Christian though
Remove it so they unban you.
Post it again, and add all this history too.
Immediately unsubscribe from their shit sub.
Just delete all the content and then stop posting: posting again has almost no effect as the mods have no social life and will manually delete the post within minutes, almost nobody would have the time to read it
reddit must be going hard on the anti-palestine rhetoric. if the mods wont ban you, the site filters would eventually. im seeing quite alot of shadowbannings that dont make sense.
Not even a new thing either, just much worse now. I know a mod who got banned for making a post about boycotting Israel in his own sub of very obvious anti Israel supporters.
Admin banned <1 hour, wiped his post with almost a hundred comments, and then threatened the other two or three mods to fall in line or face the entire sub getting banned or mod replaced.
About 4 years ago, left reddit shortly afterwards when a similar situation happened to r/dankvideos where the admin team nuked ~6 months worth of posts and banned the mod for not moderating content to their agenda.
i heard in another forum where the mods were unilaterally removed by reddit.~ reddit just wants to be a facebook clone, a word that REDDIT ALSO blocks.
Reddit is embracing the new christofascist dictatorship.
Is that the state flag of Ohio on the right side astronaut?
🔫 🧑🚀 always was
Islamophobia still get a pass on the internet. Especially on Reddit.
it very much also gets a pass IRL
it gets a pass everywhere, the decades of propaganda against arabic people via, bush’s wars had a generational effect. but criticism against christianity, is where they draw the line.
This is particularly dumb considering that Allah is the arabic translation for God. Even Christian arabs use Allah.
The most absurd about this imo. is that Arabic is considered promoting terrorism, but Vikings are not.
I got shadow banned from the entire site for making a popular post about diy Luigi prayer candles on witches vs patriarchy.
its too easy to get shadowbanned, even if your not making any controversial statement. they are currently kept alive on AI-posts, and bots anyways. if they actually do an actual purge on the bots, reddit will be a ghost town.
Reddit mods are like, the pus from a festering wound
I got reddit ban once for saying that some paedophiles are so bad, that lots of people think they should get the death penalty.
Community ban from r/unitedkingdom, followed swiftly by…
Reddit is a vast network of communities that are created, run, and populated by people all over the world. In order to keep communities welcoming, safe, and great places to be, everyone who uses the platform operates by a shared set of rules.
Permanently banned for hate
Reddit is moderated by the worst people in the world.
I got reddit ban once for saying that some paedophiles are so bad, that lots of people think they should get the death penalty.
Tbf, some people are hiding their LGBT-phobia under the guise of “i hate pedophiles”, I’m not accusing you of anything, but I can see how that statement could be problematic.
I got banned for the same reason after a comment that contained a direct, attributed quote from Donald trump. TBF he is a hateful little shit so I probably should have known better.
Honestly that sub is a cesspool anyways, you’re better off without it lmao
The Moderators of a viking themed subreddit being racists? No way!
they weren´t banned from r/viking, only from imadethis, if i read correctly.
thats correct. they will unban him from /r/somethingimade if they remove it from /r/viking
1000 year old? How dare this dude threaten us with scary Arabic numerals
Disgusting and such a clear example of the damage we do to another when we accept the all encompassing conditions of corporate social media without resistance.
When a social media website is being run for profit, this kind of shockingly ugly simplification of “foreign” ideas (Islam is NOT foreign to the US) is inveitable. In order to monetize at scale, the system demands this degree of ignorance, it is not optional nor an unintended side effect it is rather how “we” ensure the “right” history is recorded as a racist, xenophobic society choking to death on its own bigotry.
It is the same situation with mainstream corporate news. The more money you add, the more practiced and willful ignorance you get.
Nah this isn’t corporate influence, it’s just plain old bigotry and racism. This smells strongly of “brown religion bad”.
A lot of Americans fell victim to this after 9/11 and it never went away. Anything Muslim is terrorism. I doubt most of them even know that allah is just the name they use for their god, and certainly not that it’s the same god as the Christian god.
allah is just the name they use for their god
Christian Arabs use this name for God as well
they also get upset if you call anything christians put into law as 'sharia law"
This smells strongly of “brown religion bad”.
Jesus was a brown, middle eastern, palestinian jew.
Yes I am aware, but good luck convincing white Christians of that.
Try to explain to an American Christian what a Coptic is.
Usually you can watch their brains melt inside their heads.
“devout” sees him as a white , blue eyed man.
i feel like we’re in need of another Life of Brian or Blazing Saddles. I wish I were talented enough to write or film either
It’s not a name. It’s literally just the word “God” in Arabic.
Yes, this is ridiculous, we aren’t even talking about an especially specific word or concept, you might as well call the word for “love” in arabic inherently extremist, threatening and violent.
Ask 1000 Christians what “god” means to them and get 1000 different answers, why would it be any different for Islam?
almost any comment against christianity=bad, even MEDIA/MSN dont touch this, but more than happy to frame muslims as a violent sexist religion, eventhough christianity has DONE ALOT worst.
Lots of overlap between ‘viking enthusiasts’ and white supremacists unfortunately. This specifically seems more christofascist but obviously lots of overlap there too.

Guy probably got confused when confronted with “conflicting” ideologies, i.e viking jewelry with Arabic inscriptions.
Also, it says “for god”, since it is a translation. In the ideological state of things it is kinda inviting prejudice to translate half the phrase.
these rings are cool as fuck
spez uses AI-assisted profiling to have mods determine if a member’s content is ideologically-biased and make comments about violence, and usually anyone using violent language even casually is marked for a permaban. So by this rule a lot were permabanned, many of them progressives.
that and they are generally preventing new accounts from emerging too.
