Thank you taking the time to read this:
So first of all, I would thank you for creating this subreddit, as injustice of any kind makes me angry, and as a person living in Europe Iāve seen so much hatred and racism towards refugees, immigrants, guest workers, children of immigrants, or POCās that were adopted by white parents. I have to ask what I can post.
Can I post screenshots of other people who are blatantly racist in other subreddits that are blatantly, no, aggressively racist, and are spreading hate speech against immigrants,? I will cover up their usernames, should I also coverup the subreddit? Here is another thing, in 2 or 3 Iāll report the message, but a mod will just say āit doesnāt break any Reddit rulesā (which is a blatant lie). May I also post a screenshot of the modās replay, if I cover up his name? Can I include the name of the subreddit or not?
Can I post memes that are high quality? Especially if itās political commentary?
May I post pictures of or videos of how POC are being miss treated
Can I post news reports, articles or documentaries about the topics in this subreddit
What am I absolutely NOT allowed y post here. I made a joke on another subreddit and got permanently banned without warning.
What type of content would you really like me to post?
I have worked in the international field my entire life, so I had access to documents in academia, from think tanks, private business, government institutions, and from diplomatic organizations like the UN. Am I allowed to post an analysis of the factors driving discrimination and abuse towards the people mentioned in this mentioned in this sub, and also what is fueling hatred, discrimination, and misinformation against against other countries like China & North Korea?
I cannot post too many sources as most of the time, Iāve been studying people (like Putin) for over 20 years, and the sources would mean pulling out several folder large folders and posting over 100 sources. Or, since Iāve been on the inside, can I post personal experiences as well? I think it would give a great insight.
Iān very sorry that about the long message, and I thank you very much for taking the time out to read this, I look forward to your reply. Thank you very much! š
these same kids youre here to protect are also experiencing Covid. My body was destroyed by chicken pox. This is worse. If youāre here to ignore that, get the fuck off my subreddit
I know itās a body episode. I know Iāll be ok. Yet I fucking wonāt. Itās not a joke. If I get Covid again I will die. My friends are homeless, rotting, dying, euthanizing, committing suicide. If youre on this subreddit,I know you care and you know what it is to be called paranoid, over exaggerating, all the stupid shit. Itās not fake. None of it is. This is genocide again at this point in time, as it has been the whole time. I look like a corpse. I havenāt gone outside in 2 years. I have had a stroke, I have probably had a heart attack, I go into shock, I have fevers. My legs are purple and numb. My friends are dying. I never recovered from chicken pox as a child. This goes on forever. I need your help. I need you to know. This isnāt a party space. This isnāt a kingdom. This is a burden. This is a cemetery. This is where I will die one way or another. Covid is killing me. I am not ok and it is not ok.

Iām already distanced but I hold access to the door here so come on in. other mods, join me please if I donāt come back for some reason. Reddit creators open the door for me. Full trust, no vetting just write / say / put something in the comments if you want a key. press any button to continue lol. I š„ all of you. Thank you for being part of the BIPOLAR EXPRESS. I hope I did yāall proud. Iām amazed. I canāt wait to see what youāve been organizing in the shadows. True power. Always. I hate this situation. Letās be done with it. I hope your babies come back to you, I hope you find your parents and loved ones. I hope you get to where you need to go. May we all get to where weāre trying to go ASAP.
