That is not what they declared, repeating a misrepresentation of the truth doesn’t make it any more truthful.

It most certainly is what they declared. > the rule on hate ... does not protect groups of people who are in the majority That statement has nothing to do with protecting minorities, it's a declaration of not protecting the majority.

  > While the rule on hate protects such groups, it does not protect all groups or all forms of identity. For example, the rule does not protect groups of people who are in the majority or who promote such attacks of hate. Not a single word about white people not benefiting from such protections.

    > people who are in the majority Who do you think that refers to?

      The majority of the community in question, as clearly indicated by that statement. This might be shocking to a white supremacist, but the majority of the world is not white.

        You haven't answered the question. Who are "the majority of the community in question"? But after looking at your history here, I see you don't discuss anything in good faith, so I'm not surprised you aren't discussing this in good faith.

        Anyone can look at my comment history and verify for themselves that you are trying to poison the well by accusing me of arguing in bad faith. I assure you I am just here to get my side of the argument out in the open, but the irony of a “free speech advocate” trying to censor me with lame ad hominem attacks is pretty rich. How about you answer your own question: who is the majority? You seem to be assuming that each individual community on reddit is frequented by a white majority. Where is your evidence?

        I'll support my statement, and save anyone who is reading this the trouble of checking your comment history, by citing a selection of attacks you wrote in every single comment at the top of your history right now, to several different people: > Maybe consider consulting a dictionary. > What the fuck is the matter with some of you... > then you very clearly don’t give a flying duck about right or wrong, either. > You appear to be admitting in plain — though horribly ungrammatical — English that you don’t care about the difference between right and wrong > your writing is so bad that I’m genuinely struggling to make sense of it. > Someone doesn’t understand the terms... > What kind of fucking creep sees ... I think it's unproductive to continue this discussion at this time.

        I like how you totally ignored my actual argument and wasted your effort trolling my comment history for any non sequitur comment you could find, all while once again completely ignoring the meat of my arguments. Are you familiar with the “fallacy fallacy”?

        Your take would mean that anti-black racism would not be against the rule in r/blackpeopletwitter. I don't think that's what reddit meant. I think reddit meant either the majority on reddit or the majority in the US (reddit being a US based site that mostly discusses American politics). But you don't seem capable of following the guidelines here, and I'm not interested in your style of debate. Let's just move on.
