ChurchOfCurrentThing - subreddit mocking media outrages and leftist culture got banned 2 hours ago. Bet some jokes hit too close to home for some admins
I humbly ask for a brief moment of silence for another good sub.
Church of Covid is still up for now.
The ironic thing about this is back in the day of absolute monarchy, jesters were usually the most highly regarded, Henry VIII's jesters was the only guy that could tell him bad news and keep his head.
Congratulations, you are more intolerant than a guy we made a rhyme for remembering what happened to each of his wives (divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived)
Power is Illusory.
When you break the illusion by mocking it, you destroy the real power it holds. This is why authoritarians must destroy mockery with unrelenting violence. Fear can restore the illusion.
Time to check out AHS again to find the next fun sub.

Other news from preddit, presented by a mod post from wallstreetbets.
Ultimately, the mods there will go on to ban screenshot posts from other subs for their part.
So, there's a small peek at goings-on there. Not sure if u/AntonioofVenice might have further information, but we'll see if this tagging works.
It does.
I don't have much extra information. I do know that despite this being a recent addition to the "COC", it was enforced like that for a long time (at least for people they don't like).
HandOfBane, widely considered to be the most knowledgeable person on the matter, told me that screenshots of posts with visible usernames are not allowed. Same for pinging people, unless they're OK with it.
The stuff about not mentioning subs is new, though they did enforce it on TD and r-politics.
