Musk has repeatedly accused people who post the names of his DOGE associates on X of breaking the law (to be clear: doing so absolutely is not a crime). He made a similar claim in response to the screenshots from r/WhitePeopleTwitter posted by Reddit Lies, saying “they have broken the law.” Engadget was unable to verify the Reddit comments posted by the account, but it included statements like “time to hunt” and “this nazi stooge needs to be shot.”

    I mean, the sub is full of people calling for the execution of anyone affiliated with Musk or Trump. Can we be bipartisan for a second? The screenshots that lead to the sub’s banning are out there, it was unhinged af.

          Only after it had been an issue for a loooooooooong time. Reddit doesn’t offer nearly the same leniency to other subs.

      I’m not sure how calling for the death of Musk or Trump is In anyway unhinged? That’s like questioning why we should stop a serial killer.

      I guess the real question is how many times did you vote for Trump? All three?

      Yeah, I would have nipped that rhetoric right in the bud even here on Lemmy, though I certainly wouldn’t have nuked the whole community.

      Bipartisan? Bipartisan?! The only Bipartisan I want to see is Elon Musk and his goons torn apart bi-partisans.
