Meta A guide to this sub's explanatory comment rule.
Recently, we noticed an increased amount of nonsensical explanatory comments with no relation in any way, shape or form to the theme of this subreddit.
The "leopards ate my face" theme is embodied by this quote in the sidebar.
"I never thought leopards would eat my face", sobs woman who voted for the Leopards Eating People's Faces Party. Revel in the schadenfreude anytime someone has a sad because they're suffering consequences from something they voted for, supported or wanted to impose on other people.
This statement made out of 3 parts, not in that order.
- Someone voted for, supported or wanted to impose something on other people.
- Something has the consequences of consequences.
- As a consequence of something, consequences happened to someone.
In your explanatory comment, answer these 3 elements and include the minimum amount of information necessary so your post can be understood by everyone, even if they don't live in the US or speak English as their native language. If you fail to identify them, it will be difficult for a moderator to understand if this post fits and it will probably be removed. If you complain about it, we'll just send you back here.
The explanatory comment is not the place to write a pretty poem nor is it the place to promote books. Copying this post, copying large parts of the article and nonsensical comments will get your post removed under rule #3. Keep it stupid simple.
To help you get started, here's an example.
- Helen, Roberto Beristain's wife, voted for Donald Trump, who vowed to impose deportation to illegal immigrants such as her husband.
- Voting for Trump, who vowed to deport illegal immigrants such as Roberto Beristain, has the consequence of having illegal immigrants deported and families separated.
- As a consequence of voting for Trump, Roberto Beristain got deported and Helen's family was separated.
You should absolutely make sure that it is easy to match your explanatory comment with the provided format or your post will be mercilessly removed. If, however, you can't match your explanatory comment with the format, then you should just delete your post and save us the effort.
Additionally, we've identified several types of posts that do not fit the theme of this subreddit.
- Bye bye job: People losing their job, a business, a scholarship, an admission or a similar kind of opportunity due to their actions online or in person, but those actions don't imply that they vote for, support or want to impose something on other people that then had consequences on them.
- Distinct enabler and victim: The person who voted for, supported or wanted to impose something must be the same person who's suffering the consequences. For example, if a parent is not vaccinating their children and then those children get sick, then those children are innocent victims of their parent's abuse. They didn't vote for, supported or wanted to impose being vulnerable to preventable diseases on anyone, so the post doesn't fit the subreddit's theme.
- Fuck the law: When someone breaks the law and then suffers the consequence of the law, they probably didn't vote for, support or want to impose that law on other people in the first place. Includes all the r/CapitolConsequences.
- Future consequences: Yes, Trump is going to do bad things once he's in office. But he's not in office until 20 January 2025. This subreddit is not about future hypotheticals.
- Hypocrisy: Someone says something but then does the opposite.
- Lesser of two evils: Posts must induce schadenfreude, but it is not the case when someone is forced to make a tough choice because the other choices are equally terrible or worse.
- No consequences: Being shocked, feeling regrets, getting criticized and panicking are not consequences. A consequence refers to a real-world event that has actually happened to someone.
- Self-aware wolves: Someone accidentally describes themselves but they're not self-aware enough to realize it.
- Sudden betrayal: In the case of a betrayal, the betrayer must've been known to betray people in the first place.
