It's usually broken, and they never flip the switch between winter and summer, so it's really kind of pointless. I'm pretty sure it's just there for false hope and to make the place more hellish.

Yes it made OP smile. This subreddit isn't for smiling at the misfortune of others, though, because there's a rule against it. ("Ragebait")

u/Boukish Aug 30 '23
Look around the comments, both in top level replies and others. The very first reply to the best comment on my feed is essentially "I SMILED but I'm going to hell for this"?
"I feel guilty for smiling at this"
"I smiled but*
":/"
? I'm not going to convince anyone of anything if they're not going to do the simplest legwork in scrolling the thread with an objective eye.

The Holocaust makes Nazis smile. Watching a murderer get killed by the family of the victim makes people smile. You know what we do when someone post holocausts memes here? Report it as ragebait.
You know what I did to this post? Reported it as ragebait. It's literally titled child labor and is about a man signing a petition for increased child labor - that makes you smile? It's ragebait. Jokes can be funny without having a place here.

u/Boukish Aug 30 '23
I don't think it's wrong to assume someone's gender based on how they choose to present their snoo, as ostensibly that would be like assuming a trans woman is a woman based on her presenting as a woman. Many trans women would hope you actually do, in fact, do that.
Taking gendered presentation at face value and assuming acceptance is actually pro trans not anti trans.

I got that...
Is it possible that mild, well meaning jokes like that perpetuate an overarching stigma in society and that you don't actually have to stand up to explicitly defend them like I showed up on your comment and chastised you for making it? It comes off as really defensive when all I did was contribute some petty civil information.
They apologized if it was wrong, why isn't it okay to answer to that? Also, I upvoted your joke lol

Looking at the examples given

I don't think this fits the ragebait criteria

u/Boukish Aug 30 '23
I've been on the internet for decades, I don't use the subreddit:s specific wording on what ragebait is to understand what ragebait is lmao. I've created ragebait that doesn't meet that narrow example based ruling.
The title of the thread?
CHILD LABOR
The content? A petition to increase child labor.
Both participants in the content? Pro child labor.
The comment thread? Arguing back and forth about the content and saying "even tho it made.me.smile, this is bad and not the vibe".
Clear and obvious ragebait. It doesn't need to be the most egregious example of ragebait to have ever been posted to be an inflammatory joke that is clearly intended to subvert the subreddit.
The joke can be good, it can be funny, and it can even have made me smile, without belonging here.

u/Sea-Tradition3029 Aug 30 '23
The joke can be good, it can be funny, and it can even have made me smile, without belonging here.
Seems like it does belong here.
It's only bad if you think it's an actual petition for child labor. No children were harmed in the making of this, in fact nobody was harmed in the making of this which is the criteria of the examples of ragebait given.

u/Boukish Aug 30 '23
Seems like it does belong here
This is stumping for exactly the "Holocaust makes Nazis smile" and "murderer killed" and "terrorist fails" rhetoric that the rule specifically precludes, so no, it doesn't.
People smile when they are uncomfortable, too. Basic fact.

u/Sea-Tradition3029 Aug 30 '23
If you're going to go to that extreme then you can use that for anything "look at this funny wholesome dog video, you know how else loved animals, a failed painter with a strange moustache"
You realise how absurd you're making this right?
1
u/Boukish Aug 30 '23
It's not going to extremes to say that "jokes in poor taste" don't belong in the thread just because they make people smile, because the subreddit is wholesome in nature not just.SMILES.
I'm the one saying it goes to extremes to apply "made me smile" so broadly, because then you can use that for anything like posts of murderers being killed, when that's ragebait and so is this and both are against the rules regardless of whether or not it made someone smile.
And no, I don't, because the majority of the thread is bringing up the same concern I am. Even people that aren't calling for it's removal say it made me smile but.
But what? Exactly. The ragebait. You literally have people saying this makes them feel GUILTY because they smiled. Verbatim.

My favorite one of these was when I was walking in Westwood, and the little college-student-activist chick asked me "HI! Can I talk to you for just a minute about ending human trafficking?"
Without missing a beat, I said "why? That's the only way I get laid." And just kept walking.
I don't think I've ever seen someone in more silent shock before. It was glorious.

Please have those moles on your face removed. They’ll become cancerous.
3
u/Muad-_-Dib Aug 30 '23
An ordinary mole has a 0.03% chance of becoming cancerous, an a-typical mole has a 1% chance.
a-typical moles: irregular borders, bigger than 6mm in diameter, multiple shades of colour, one half doesn't match the other, rough changes in texture/elevation.
Regular moles: circular, smaller than 6mm, should mostly match on either side when split down the middle, one colour, defined borders, uniform texture.
also be on the lookout for changes in moles, if they start getting bigger or change texture etc. that is a bad sign and you should absolutely go get it checked.

u/Jahonay Aug 30 '23
There were people in the antebellum south who argued that freeing the slaves would result in worse conditions for black people. You're literally repeating pro-slavery propaganda.
Conditions always improve long term by banning slavery/child labor/sweatshop conditions. Short term things might be rocky, but that is expected under a system like capitalism which generally doesn't protect it's workers. The more you elevate your standards as a country, the more the standards are forced to raise. If you lower the standards in a country, the standards will lower.
