For civil discussion of US politics. Be excellent to each other.

Rule 1: Posts have the following requirements:
▪️ Post articles about the US only

▪️ Title must match the article headline

▪️ Recent (Past 30 Days)

▪️ No Screenshots/links to other social media sites or link shorteners

Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. One or two small paragraphs are okay.

Rule 3: Articles based on opinion (unless clearly marked and from a serious publication-No Fox News or equal), misinformation or propaganda will be removed.

Rule 4: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a jerk. It’s not acceptable to say another user is a jerk. Cussing is fine.

Rule 5: Be excellent to each other. Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, ableist, will be removed.

Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.

Rule 7. No conjecture type posts (this could, might, may, etc.). Only factual. If the headline is wrong, clarify within the body.

Wow, this song goes hard. I love it. Can't find it on Tidal, so definitely something is up. Tidal rarely is missing songs.

Youtube link to help get it to trending - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sn9EKC9nqU4&rco=1 (if youtube allows it, probably not)

Nope, you have a choice. No one is tricking you, his name is on the link.

Here is a link to the lyrics if that helps: https://genius.com/Macklemore-fucked-up-lyrics

How's it being censored?

Not cynical, I believe that. But I'm genuinely curious about specifics. Is it, like, algorithmically deprioritized?

He said a naughty word! Won't anybody think of the children?

You have to sign in to see it and it's really hard to find on youtube even if you're signed in. I had a hard time finding an open version of it. It's not outright banned, just really hard to access.

Not logged in, and the first two of my results were this video. I was able to watch it.

I'm all for calling out censorship when it happens, but lets not make an issue when one doesn't exist.

If the art makes them upset, it's telling the truth.

It's funny to me that anyone is reporting this. It's obviously your comm lol Eff'em.

In regards to the reports, I started this community up for myself to keep track of the real things happening that hopefully avoids the distractions of what trump or his fellow baddies say. I'm using what little voice I have to share a political song that is getting censored. You can call me a power tripping bastard and I'll say yeah, probably. I've seen your complaints.

Lol people are reporting this?

Sorry the politically motivated censorship of a political song isn't politics enough.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 day ago

I just meant this to be a note to my regular users, I never expected it to go to the front page. It sounds way more dramatic than I intended, lol.
