I'm sure this totally happened and isn't just made up to make people from a certain country look bad

On one of the local MTR trains (Hong Kong), someone placed a label reading “831” on the Prince Edward system map, apparently as a reference to the police brutality that occurred on the Prince Edward Station platform on August 31, 2019

Why is my CQS decreasing despite getting karma?

5 days ago my CQS as MODERATE according to the whatismycqs checker.

Now it's currently LOW, despite the fact that in that time I have been submitting high-quality links and participating in conversations positively.

What is going on here? At one point I was actually being downvote-harassed, so could that have had something to do with it?

Is there any leftist subreddit that's not completely run by tankies and anti-semites?

Just like the title says. I consider myself to be leftist but I am fully opposed to the china/ruzzia/hamas/iran glazing on supposedly leftist reddits. I've been banned from most of the bigger 'leftist' subreddits on my old account. Is there anywhere else that's actually a rational place to post?

Reddit doesn't like it if you question the racist, facsist, terrorist, genoicdal CCP but will allow you to falsely blood libel the nation of Israel.

My idea is protect front-page posts from arbitrary removal

If a post reaches the front page of a community, moderators generally shouldn't be able to remove it unless it is clearly and obviously rule-breaking (e.g. anti-semitism, homophobia, harassment, illegal content, etc.).

Reaching the front page is a strong signal that the community wants to see and engage with that content. Mods should still be able to enforce legitimate subreddit rules, but there should be some protection against a popular post being removed simply because a moderator personally dislikes it or disagrees with the sentiment.

Maybe Reddit could introduce a threshold where, once a post reaches the front page, removal requires a clear rule violation or some additional level of justification.
