This one is about Reddits chaos No different to the unfettered Nazi bullshit. Extremely unlikely that Reddit can be accused of being too woke or Pro-Islam.
… Why is the little girl blurred out but the little boy isn’t?
Islam.
So a random mod speaks for Reddit? What kind of BS is this post
A random mod for the Karachi subreddit
Yea I know, but the post says that the admins accept it, which is false
This is a stupid, dishonest and embarrassing post.
Painting the whole of reddit based on the actions of a single non-admin moderator on a religious subreddit of all things feels dishonest as hell, tbh.
Well, an admin not stepping in also speaks volumes. They were more than happy to step in when we complained about API changes.

Oh, I was expecting it to be a recent thing, not from months ago. That’s why I didn’t see it on their profile.

Yes, reddit admins are famously shit and famously have the most skewed priorities in history, but that still doesn’t make this cherry-picked example a good representation of reddit as a whole.
The post is not trying to explain what reddit is. The post title says “Reddit is now allowing advocacy of Child Marrige because they don’t want to be seen as islamophobes”.
This is a true statement, since admins not stepping in means they are allowing it. The image is good evidence of that.
What do you want? Total censorship of every unacceptable position held by an individual user? I say let the child marriage advocates identify themselves.
I wouldn’t even mind them not censoring it. I am a fan of 4chan for it being such an unrestrained place, even if I rarely visit it.
But one, reddit does heavily moderate it’s content. You can’t remove content you dislike and then claim not deleting something doesn’t mean you approve.
Second, this is not just letting a user post what he wants, this is letting a mod use the power you gave him to force this shit through and delete, ban, and/or censor opposing views.
They are already identified… Nobody cares… That’s the problem…
to be fair the vast majority of administration on reddit is now automated by bots. If you’ve ever been admin banned it tells you as much. So the real issue should be what filters/flags have been applied and why would the bot ignore something like this post/mod?
Reddit deleted my NSFW subreddit for no reason except it was competition for the girls they personally pimp out. They 100% take an active role and could deal wirh this if they wanted to.
Yeah, I walked away from reddit a couple of years ago now. I’ve been over there occasionally searching for something in particular and niche community this is definitely not the vibe for most of it.

This comment mentions finding it. It was ~2 hours after yours, maybe they added it back or something. https://lemmy.world/comment/18690799
Yeah, my bad then. I expected this to be a recent thing, not from months ago, didn’t think of checking their profile that far back.
Religion. Leave it and open your eyes to the real world. Stop believing in fairy tales.
Being a child diddler has no religion. Even with Islam the people who advocate for child marriage still hold the same morals.
I know we all hate Reddit, but you don’t have to sink as low as this. This is a single post, hardly reddit’s stance.
well on the plus side we do the same thing with lemmy instances so at least we’re consistent
Yes😉
The point being made is that reddit Admins have zero problem banning anything that does not fit their “narrative”. And that narrative has a hierarchy not based on basic morality and common sense. Ask yourself this question, even if there was a single post, would reddit Admins allow the promotion of child marriage by a Christian religious group that was mostly comprised of White people?
The problem with morality is that there is no such thing as “basic morality” literally every human being has their own personal set of morals.
How is that the point being made? This isn’t an admin.
Big shocker. This is what happens when you declare “All cultures are equally valid and no culture is better or more moral than any other”
When you refuse to stand on your own morals, sniveling and bowing to cultures that would just as soon destroy yours and replace it with its own, this is what happens. You can to give up your morals and replace them with the morals of your conqueror.
This is idiocy.
No one is coming into these discussions saying “well yes, theft and assault is bad but the theft and assault culture likes it so there’s nothing we can do!”
And anyone saying otherwise either took the bait, hook and all, or is an idiot.
No, they simply call for “bail/prison reform” to let them back out on the streets, then try to wrap it in flowery language to mask the truth of what they are doing.
Oh look, an unfounded claim.
This is a single post, hardly “Reddit”.
Yeah, I was gonna say, this is a community moderator not a site admin.
An admin not stepping in does reflect on Reddit. They have shown they won’t hesitate to step in when they actually care about the issue.

Reddit Admins ALL THE TIME, will remove posts and comments that the subreddit mods have allowed to post. And in some cases it may result in the ban of the poster and even of the group mod that approved it
The Karachi subreddit lol
It’s because u/spez is a human trafficker helper who had Ghilisaine Maxwell as a major contributor on Reddit before her arrest. It’s because BRICS is a global movement by the wealthy to bring about slavery/“corporate monarchy”. BRICS employs human traffickers and social media extensively to get blackmail on people and to find ideal victims. That includes Iran and Saudi Arabia (a somewhat secret player).
The Muslim people I’ve known (from Egypt, mainly) were not chill with sexism or marrying kids, at all. They are extremely generous and kind and educated. Don’t let stupid asshole wealthy people create bot narrative lies to trick poor people into slavery.
Religion is poison
DEPORTED!
“U.S. states - As of July 2025, child marriage is legal in 34 states.”
4 states have no minimum age (effectively 0).
2 states have a minimum age of 15.
20 states have a minimum age of 16.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Child_marriage_in_the_United_States#Marriage_age
Let’s be honest here, the United States aren’t the standard they claim to be.
You European? They don’t have a leg to stand on here. Marriage age is buck wild over there! Europe! What’s up with that?!
If not, check your country! Bet money that neither marriage nor age of consent is pegged at 18.
That’s not accurate. In France it’s 18 , has been for a couple of decades actually. A judge can waive it in the interests of the couple but that’s super rare.
It’s also not like you can marry a 15 year old to an adult. Statutory laws still apply, obviously.
That is how it is in many places in the US. People who want to marry off their child find the most regressive, backwards judge in the area who is happy to do it just to keep up traditional values.
French Canadian.
Ah! 16 across the board. I assume that’s national not provincial law?
Indeed surprising for me, the trick being that it’s not 18 when considering “marriage with parents and judicial approval”, which are probably pretty rare but definitely possible in way more countries than i would have bet
Mostly the same in the US, most of the states that are 18 below require parental consent. Still not awesome but it’s not like a bunch of teenagers are getting married willy nilly.
Allowing children to be sold off as child brides with parents consent is not an improvement. Especially since they cannot legally get divorced until they are 18
Anyone who knows anything about the US would never claim such a thing…
Only people claiming this are suburban trash living their sheltered life who need to feel superior after reading something like this.
This country is littered with pedophiles and 48 year olds who say “age is just a number!” Just before they marry a 14 yr old.
Anyone who knows anything about the US
Knows this.
You are the one who is mislead my friend
I think you’re arguing with someone who completely agrees with you.
One ex of mine got married at 17, another at 18 (Appalachian milfs and I have a thing for each other). Neither decision was good, and people may think it’s only a year, but the difference is drastic. At 18 you’re legally an adult, but at 17 you aren’t. At 17 you lack rights that your adult spouse has, like to file for divorce and to open bank accounts independently.
The minimum marriage age should be the age of majority and I don’t care if your culture dislikes it. If you don’t trust someone is old enough to sign a contract, why are you letting someone sign that contract? If they aren’t old enough to purchase pornography, why are you letting them enter into a legal commitment with a sexual component? If they can’t legally independently demand divorce why are you letting them marry at all?
We had to put a line between child and adult somewhere and 18 seems a pretty good place, but crossing that line grants an immense amount of freedom and independence.
Too immature to be allowed to drink. Mature enough to raise children.
Yeah, no. Marriage should be 21 and up.
Nah I’m in the make it all 18 camp
I used to be. But when I turned 30 I realized that I wasn’t properly sane until I was in my late 20s.
We’ve figured out that brains don’t finish maturing until around 25. So to me, 21 is a compromise.
I wasn’t properly sane until I was experienced. Ive seen sheltering make for stupid 30 year olds snd I’ve seen a 21 year old on her second kid who seemed to have it shockingly together. But I also come back to the stance of freedom for adults.
Indeed. But the question to me is, when are they an adult? We have to pick some fairly arbitrary age, and to me 18 seems young.
Appalachian milfs and I have a thing for each other
Thanks, I blew air out of my nose harder than usual.
Glad to be of assistance lol. I used to joke that I don’t have a type but a type has me
Surprised at your comment. Just last month I read a review of all variations of milfs in the US. Top rated milfs were the Appalachian milfs. And it makes sense. They marry young and have kids when they are young. They have much less mileage on them compared to the overwhelming amount of milfs.
That’s a weird think to rank. I was just near where left wing queer hillbillies wound up
If you’re going to allow marriage below the age of majority, emancipation should be included. It makes a terrible idea just slightly better.
You can soon vote in the UK at age 16
I’m generally cool with that. I hope they can sign contracts at that age too if they’re allowed to marry
United States states ?
That Wikipedia article is very poorly written and seems to contradict itself in the same paragraph multiple times. But I’m not surprised that the main locations for child marriages are Appalachia and the Jello-Belt. Backwoods hicks and ultra rural Mormons are the two main demographics i correlate with child marriage.
Aisha was six when she and Muhammad were married. I’m not sure it really compares
Check age of consent laws for American states. Find that outrageous? LOL, next have a look at Europe.
If it’s legal to have sex with a 16 or 17 year old, it’s legally consistent to allow marriage.
You are working under the assumption that the consequences of sex and marriage are the same. Much of the world doesn’t agree, as per your list.
I’m thinking we agree? In any case, the age of majority, marriage and consent are all over the place on this Earth, and almost all are under 18. Again, if you can fuck you should be able to marry, to be legally consistent.
You both need to check Aisha’s age before even comparing US or Europe to it
Classical Islamic sources state that Aisha was six at the time of her marriage with Muhammad and nine at the time of its consummation.
I’m well aware, just commenting on modern age laws perhaps being crazier than most people know.
I guess being from Europe I don’t find the numbers particularly crazy, at least considering the context

It’s called MAGA.
Maga can imagine
Dude, Mary was between 12 and 16 when she gave birth to Jesus. And don’t get me started on the story of Lot and his daughters in the Old Testament.
Between OP and the comments, what a stupid fucking post…
Yeah, and? Almost like christianity sucks too, who would have thought
It’s almost like all abrahamic religions are bad…
Tainted by the Demiurge.
At the very least, their extremist adherents are certainly responsible for some of the worst atrocities of the modern age.
This post is still garbage though
Mary was also a virgin though
Sure she was, friend
I mean according to the story told to the followers. It’s a lot better imo than in Islam where Aisha was six at the time of the marriage and nine when they had sex…
Then again Mary is a character in both religions’ stories
A lot better in reality or in storytelling?
Modern translations of the Bible try to soften culturally unacceptable practices in the present day like pedophilia and rape (especially in the old testament).
A lot better in that Mary was older than Aisha was at the time of marriage or sex
Presumably
So I can still state a corrigendum? Cool.
Corrigendum: That’s supremely fucked up, and anyone that advocates for that deserves to be punched in the dick by a thousand prize-fighters.
