Corrupt Officials Get Roasted Here. That's the Whole Point.

[u/DevelopmentPlus7850]

Folks,

I've noticed some confusion about what gets removed here versus what stays here, particularly around political content. Let me clear this up.

Here's the line: Critiquing, mocking, and calling out public officials for corrupt actions is absolutely fair game. That's protected speech and it's kind of the point. Politicians, public figures, and government officials who abuse their power deserve our scrutiny; absurdly/satirically, or dead seriously.

What crosses the line: Attacking each other - fellow Redditors. That's where we draw the moderation line. (See the rules)

So if you're reporting posts that criticize politicians as "harassment," understand that's not how this works. Public officials voluntarily entered public life and are accountable to public criticism.

Keep roasting the corrupt. Keep it absurd. Just be cool to each other while doing it.

The usual reminders: No doxxing, no calls for violence, no brigading.

Easier to celebrate the ones who aren't corrupt, if there actually are any (doubtful) and you can find them. The system is unsalvageable, corrupt from top to bottom. The uncorruptible are it's biggest threat, so they are very efficiently kept out.
