    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.

    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.

        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.

        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?

      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?

    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.

    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.

    “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

    Child Marriage Laws by State 2025

    Child marriage is still legal in most of the U.S. Here’s why.
    Loopholes in state and federal law allow minors to wed.

          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.

            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.

      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.

            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.

                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.

        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 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.

      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.

          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.
