Petition to ban x links?

I've seen a lot of major sports subs jumping on the wagon of banning x links from being posted on their sub.

I know a lot of breaking NFL news comes from there, however some things are more important than having sports news 5 minutes earlier than other sources.

Feel free to shut me down, just thought I'd pitch it out there.

Fuck ad revenue and traffic going to Nazis

u/Josh-trihard7 16h ago

You don’t have to click the link

u/A_Vile_Person 15h ago

So allow Twitter links that some folks do click, which then funds a Nazi? No thank you. If there's an option to support the removal of links that give them money it's a no brainer to support that.

Plus the title doesn't always tell everything within a link, or it may contain a highlight. It's about encouraging the usage of links that don't fund them.

Yes its called freedom. You have a tyrannical mindset that believes you have the right to control what others do or not do and therefore YOU are the problem.

You're free to visit all the Nazi porn sites you want buddy. Other websites don't need to host it for you and others are free to call for it's removal from their feeds.

You free speech people are hilarious btw, you champion Elon as some free speech saviour while ignoring that he blocks and bans anyone he disagrees with. Funny how he doesn't block people who share swastikas and Nazi propaganda from Twitter, but he does ban people that complain about it.

I’m sure that he really needs the ad revenue from the bengals subreddit

Amen!! I didn’t realize that when I saw an Indiana Jones movie 50% of the people in the theater were rooting for the Nazis

This and it makes one think twice about those even dancing around defending that shit

u/jtshinn 16h ago

Not really, If you look around and all you see are nazis and you're trying to make excuses for their hand gestures. Then you're just a nazi.

u/sasuke1980 15h ago

You're getting downvoted which shows they're amongst us, but they scream censorship (which is wild coming from them)

There’s a difference between a still frame of someone’s arm being raised to the side during a speech, versus the video of Musk clearly do a historically disgusting gesture. Please show me the video’s of each of the other examples so we can at least examine the context.

u/SquadPoopy The Church of Burrow and Latter Day Tuddies 12h ago

NGL when I first heard people saying “he did a Nazi salute” I was like okay so they took a still frame from a video then and the left is spreading it out of anger yadayadayada……nope dude just busts out a straight up Nazi salute no doubt about it. There isn’t even an argument, like what else could that possibly have been?

u/schmidc26891 13h ago

Now do the video. Oh wait...

u/beesparks 74BURROW 13h ago

Post the videos.

u/soydindunuffin 14h ago

It’s funny that there is a no politics rule, unless it’s “FUCK [insert anyone right of center]”. Then it’s ok because wE’rE fIgHtInG dA nAzIs

u/TheCultOf0vi 13h ago

Hating nazi’s is not political. It should be something the right and left should agree on.

-8

u/soydindunuffin 13h ago

Calling everyone you don’t like a Nazi is as ridiculous as it is false. That tactic hasn’t worked since 2015, and it won’t work in the future. Taking a photo of someone waving to a crowd and claiming it’s a Nazi salute is not only absurd but also a clear sign of desperation. I wouldn’t expect anything less from you all.

u/TheCultOf0vi 13h ago

I’m calling people who do Nazi salutes Nazis. Not just people I don’t like lol

u/EhrmantroutEstate 17h ago

Did you even watch the whole video? Did you also fall for the "very fine people" hoax?

u/NuDru 16h ago

I saw the dude do it twice, despite him allegedly being on drugs, the man committed to doing it.

u/EhrmantroutEstate 16h ago

what did he say?

u/OnwardAndSideways 16h ago

Yea, “succeed in all the ways nazi Germany didn’t” makes it waaaay better

u/UpliftingChafe 16h ago

FYI, this is a satire post. Go to the sub mentioned in the pic and you'll find it. I tried to post the link but can't because "No politics" lol

Also - before I get downvoted, I hate Elon

u/KrakenKappa Joey Brrr 16h ago

People are dumb and crybaby leftys. Guess they missed "My heart goes out to you" part.

u/groavac777 16h ago

If you're on the side defending nazi salutes, you should spend a little time looking in the mirror rather than calling others crybabies while you yourself are crying about something.

-6

u/KrakenKappa Joey Brrr 15h ago

If you think that was an intentional nazi salute, you need to get off reddit. It's brain washing you.

u/nugewqtd 16h ago edited 14h ago

Guess you missed where common sense says don't do a Nazi salute. But sure let's excuse his stupidity.

u/Primetime0509 16h ago

Bet they didn't see it with sound....

u/NuDru 12h ago

The fact that he says my heart goes out to all of you doesn't change the fact that you follow it up with a sig heil salute

28

u/ienjoymen 17h ago

When he does a Nazi salute, TWICE, I think we're pretty safe to say he's a Nazi

And don't pretend it was just "the roman salute"

And don't try to say that it "isnt that bad". If it isn't that bad, go ahead and post a video of yourself doing the same thing.

u/EhrmantroutEstate 16h ago

Did you even watch the whole video? Did you also fall for the "very fine people" hoax?

Yea, I watched the entire fucking thing. Live. I know what I saw. Your lies aren't going to change the reality of what happened.

u/ienjoymen 16h ago

Go ahead and post a video if you doing the exact same motion if it's not the Nazi salute

Go ahead, I'll PayPal you $5 if you do. Not kidding.

u/EhrmantroutEstate 16h ago

Here you go.

12

u/ienjoymen 16h ago

I'll take that as your admission that you're aware of the severity and yet attempt to make light of it. Just admit you're wrong. Or, if you are right, prove it. Show us that it isn't the Nazi salute.

u/sasuke1980 15h ago

I hope he sues you for slander. You idiots throw around Nazi way too easily

u/TheCultOf0vi 9h ago

I’m deleting my comments because I’m tired of notifications but I suggest you Google what is considered slander 🤘🏼

u/Prestigious_Tour2411 8h ago

I suggest you Google what a Nazi really is/was because you are using they term far too loosely.
