Rant: Got my meme deleted 3 times before I realized the problem

Kept posting political satire memes on a platform that claimed to allow free speech. After the third takedown I noticed the rule was about "targeted harassment" not content. Had a mod explain it to me over DMs. Anyone else find the line between satire and targeted speech way blurrier than they thought?

The real issue is that "targeted harassment" is basically a vibe check, and one mod's satire is another mod's line-crossing. They don't want to admit it, but the enforcement is totally random depending on who's reviewing it.

Feel for you man, that's a super frustrating way to learn the hard way. The rules on these sites are always written so vague that it feels like they can just interpret anything however they want. Hope you didn't lose too much karma over it lol.
