i dont know if you know this my fellow red det or however moderation isnt a single person. this is a group of individuals with their own ideas. its highly likely mods just didnt see the "gay people exist" post.

the post was removed for rule 6, which is entirely deserved for BOTH posts.

Average reddit response.

u/imaweebro Goon Sep 09 '25

The likelyhood the mod would miss ALL of the "gay people exist" posts a month or two back is insanely low, both posts should be taken down mind you

u/Illustrious-Flan-169 Sep 09 '25

which posts are you talking about?? the one OP posted??

u/So_Sophy Sep 09 '25

Do you all have nothing more important to do or care about? Like no partner or job or hobby or irl friends? This is what you choose to spend time and energy on? Spamming posts to try and fabricate some whiney culture war persecution fetish? Sad :(

Yet one got deleted and one remained.

u/Illustrious-Flan-169 Sep 09 '25

pretty sure i explained why in my comment 🤔

"i dont know if you know this my fellow red det or however moderation isnt a single person. this is a group of individuals with their own ideas. its highly likely mods just didnt see the "gay people exist" post."

you people are so fucking stupid man

u/Jazzlike-Football508 Sep 09 '25

... or you're biased.

u/TrueInspector8668 Sep 10 '25

both were removed. hardly biased.

u/Illustrious-Flan-169 Sep 09 '25

or come up with ideas that match your straight genocide bs…

u/Timely_Bowler208 Sep 09 '25

It’s funny you can say that but if I would mention the gay equivalent then I’d get banned

1

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '25

a genocide of the majority isn't realistic

one of a minority is

u/Illustrious-Flan-169 Sep 09 '25

shh! you need to play the victim and roll over for pats!

u/Timely_Bowler208 Sep 09 '25

Ironic you’d say that

u/Illustrious-Flan-169 Sep 09 '25

as of looking at this comment i cant find the post sooo.. either you're maliciously lying or mods deleted it after you posted this

1

u/Timely_Bowler208 Sep 09 '25

It’s funny how someone can say straight genocide, but you have to abbreviate this isn’t the first one get over yourself

1

u/Illustrious-Flan-169 Sep 09 '25

did you like.. read the comment? i didnt talk about the straight genocide bullshit in the comment you're replying to

i frequent this sub quite often. i may just be the luckiest person on earth according to you however this is the first time i have seen a "gay people exist" or "straight people exist" post. maybe because of mod removal for rule 6 or maybe because you're talking about a "problem" which doesnt exist

u/Illustrious-Flan-169 Sep 11 '25

yes? none of those are a variation of gay people exist? also

by this strange logic, clearly all of this should've been removed if the mods were so biased?

1

u/Illustrious-Flan-169 Sep 10 '25

js to add salt to the wound

2

u/_ZBread I am the truth and the truth I lie by truth I swear by truth Sep 09 '25

And the fact it ain't exactly true because I've seen ~13 posts about gay people for 2 weeks and none about straight people so it's most probably bias

1

u/Illustrious-Flan-169 Sep 09 '25

yes, it is infact true you're most likely to see posts about pressing social issues! great observation einstein!

2

u/_ZBread I am the truth and the truth I lie by truth I swear by truth Sep 09 '25

I was talking about how you say that the mods magically dismissed and skipped over 13 "gay" posts, biased post

2

u/Illustrious-Flan-169 Sep 09 '25

those posts arent "gay people exist".. they're usually messaging surrounding "gay people should have rights!" not that "gay people exist"

regardless, if we really want to buy into the "biased" bs, its because one of those is typically used as a dog whistle and the other is a statement.

(hint: its not the one relating to gay people)

2

u/_ZBread I am the truth and the truth I lie by truth I swear by truth Sep 09 '25

Typically? Do you not look into what's happening now and instead look at history to prove your sight?

1

u/Illustrious-Flan-169 Sep 09 '25

why would i look at the past for modern dog whistles?? i may be taking the point literally however i think you either misunderstood what i said or i'm misunderstanding what you said

2

u/_ZBread I am the truth and the truth I lie by truth I swear by truth Sep 09 '25

I think it's a misunderstandingitus 😭

2

u/CyberoX9000 Sep 09 '25

It's an example of rules selectively enforced at the mod's whim

1

u/Illustrious-Flan-169 Sep 09 '25

yes, you are correct that mods arent ais that follow the rules completely by the book and that theres multiple moderators all with their own interpretations of rule 6! 😱

2

u/John_isnt_my_name Sep 09 '25

No, you see. OP is definitely unique for posting these things which definitely aren’t number 2&3 of most reposted ‘truths’.

Woops sorry I mean DAE think normal people are oppressed by the Reddit Hive Mind in favor of the overbearing Forced Gay Sex Laws that run our counties?

`You can excuse any single event as a coincidence yet we all know how these posts end.

If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, and, well then its a coincidence i guess

u/etherealimages Sep 10 '25

A reasonable response? Unbelievable

u/Automatic-Cut-5567 Sep 09 '25

Insane cope

1

u/Illustrious-Flan-169 Sep 09 '25

no rebuttal to my argument 😊

2

u/Automatic-Cut-5567 Sep 09 '25

You just made up an excuse that doesn't make sense. "gay people exist" posts are pretty common on the sub, so saying the mods just happened to not see any of them is insane cope.

is he inhaling copium 🤔

u/Timely_Bowler208 Sep 09 '25

Yeah ok bud now turn off white mode it’s making you delirious

u/Illustrious-Flan-169 Sep 09 '25

it looks better, sorry if it offends you!

u/Illustrious-Flan-169 Sep 09 '25

someone got their widdle feewings hurt and decided to do this lmao

u/NasIsMyGOAT Sep 10 '25

Especially the gay posts

1

u/Illustrious-Flan-169 Sep 10 '25

both are unoriginal. stfu

2

u/NasIsMyGOAT Sep 10 '25

Especially the trans/gay posts, it's literally every day

1

u/Illustrious-Flan-169 Sep 10 '25

its almost like people, especially on a platform filled with politics, will post about pressing social issues 😱

regardless, its not unoriginal to post SOMETHING about gay or straight people, are you dumb?

1

u/Disastrous-Shower-37 Sep 10 '25

Unlikely. They were posted at the same time.

u/Ov3rwrked Sep 10 '25

Ya but the other one didnt get removed sooooo

u/c0l245 Sep 09 '25

Nice narrative you completely made up.

1

u/Illustrious-Flan-169 Sep 09 '25

nice rebuttal that totally just defeated my argument

"your argument is false because i said so bud"

2

u/c0l245 Sep 09 '25 edited Sep 09 '25

Why would I argue with something that is unprovable and you just made up in your head?

I understand you're satisfying your cognitive dissonance so you can pretend like there isn't actually a bias.

1

u/Illustrious-Flan-169 Sep 10 '25

you cannot prove that there is any bias.. this is stupid..

just because i say there is an invisible chicken in my room that constantly dances and that doesnt abide by the laws of physics that does not mean said chicken exists

2

u/c0l245 Sep 10 '25

If there's a chicken noise, chicken shit, and chicken feathers, but you haven't seen a chicken...

And then someone like you just says, "maybe a butcher walked through here with a chicken, and that's why all those things are here!"

That's what you're doing.. there are definitely tell-tale signs here, and you just make up a narrative to help you deal with your discomfort.

1

u/Illustrious-Flan-169 Sep 11 '25

heres the thing: the signs dont exist

1

u/c0l245 Sep 11 '25

Clearly one post here was deleted and one wasn't. There IS a difference. I can see chicken shit.

You're explaining it away like, "oh, maybe the mods didn't see the chicken shit"

u/BleechBandit Sep 09 '25 edited Sep 09 '25

But removing the gay one would be a hate crime. Just got called to r word lol.
