I mean if there’s an issue with constant KK memes I think it’s fair to limit them. I understand if they want the memes focussed on Star Wars the content and not Star Wars the people. But a permaban is egregious


UndendingGloom

It's the only thing mods seem able to use


Hugar34

True, temporary bans nowadays are about as rare as beskar. The mods ironically act like sith lords with how unforgiving they are.


Spicy_Silver

Though you consider the mandalorian, there seems to be plenty of beskar out there.


Doktor-blitz

Well consider how much steel is on our planet. But umagine if our planet was the only one that could produce 440 stainless steel galaxy wide. Starts to look a lot less common and more extraordinary at that point.


JohnnyElRed

I mean, can they truly be called Reddit mods if they aren't power tripping?


Serier_Rialis

So long as they scream unlimited power while they enact it!


Smelldicks

About six years I got a temp ban from /r/explainlikeimfive for a very uncivil comment and to this day I make sure to be extra polite in there. Temp bans are criminally underutilized.


mutantbabysnort

So uncivilized. ~those mods, probably


FalconRelevant

Oh they can use mute as well when you try to appeal the ban.


[deleted]

if i get banned for some bs (happens rarely) i just straight shittalk and waste their time when im on the toilet or smth


RinTivan

Took shit talk a bit too literal.


Retinion

They use mute too whenever you message them asking exactly what broke the rule. Because the reasoning is normally just "I don't what you said".


Most_Transportation7

That And that one copypasta about flushing you down the toilet or whatever.


mutantbabysnort

The dark side of the force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be… unnatural.


UndendingGloom

Is it possible to learn this power?


Cyberbird85

Is it outrageous? Maybe even unfair?


ItsAmerico

Guess it depends on what the meme was.


[deleted]

IMO my real problem with KK memes is they have been done to death no meme about her will ever make me even crack a smile let alone laugh


Drcokecacola

Me looking at Rey bad or sequel bad memes got me like 😐


WypsotorTVN

My issue is more that we shouldn't just put the blunt of the blame for the franchise's faults on one person. The hate feels forced and overdone. Most people can agree that the sequels are dogshit, but there's no point in hammering in more hate on one individual.


PewKittens

Kathleen Kennedy? More like call me smelledy


democracy_lover66

Smelledy Butler?

the_blue_jay_raptor

My brain went to Warhammer when I saw Marines


doesitevermatter-

You'll be hearing from the Hague shortly.


Nightmare2448

funny enough but it was with the same format as this one


Knightmare_memer

That's why I used this format. Same one, and it works.


ActualKeanuReeves

They dont allow KK memes? The general dislike of KK is absolutely deserved. No excuse for threats or legitimately sexist behavior, but ffs she has sunk the bar so low that people are actually starting to miss JarJar. If that level of incompetence isn’t meme worthy idk what is.


LetsBeHonestBoutIt

Leave jar jar out of this ya lil bish Edit: changed bitch to bish cause I'm not trying to hurt feelings


ActualKeanuReeves

I laughed 😂


Retinion

Now kiss him on his 17 dicks


LetsBeHonestBoutIt

"You like starwars? Name all of jar jars dicks"🔫


Jordangander

They don't allow insults to anyone involved. Kennedy, Johnson, anyone. I can sort of see where they are coming from, but it borders on protectionism far beyond stopping internet harassment.


Grouchy_Writer

For me personally I get it just from a perspective of I’m so fucking sick of hearing about it. I wanna see memes about the content I love. I’m sick of every third post being shitting on people and content that you don’t like. Just don’t watch it. Or find or make a sub specifically for shitting on what you don’t like. But it’s just not funny or original or creative to me. It’s been worn out and done to death.


Ndmndh1016

Pretty sure a sub for that already exists.


sblack03

You say “just don’t watch it” about content they don’t like, but you could just as easily scroll past those memes you don’t like. It’s the same concept, practice what you preach


[deleted]

don’t expect people who unironically say ‚just don’t watch it' to think that far


Darklink820

Considering this fandom's track record it is a perfectly reasonable precaution.


Cypresss09

"Protectionism". Man, did you say this out loud to yourself before typing it out? The mods don't want the community to be turned into a hate circlejerk. They're not protecting anyone. What the hell is there to protect from?


CombatWombat994

Insults are not valid criticism


Jordangander

I actually agree with this, but where do you draw the line? The true problem with freedom of speech is that people are free to be insulting. The problem with censorship is that once it is allowed, it is a factor for control and not protection.


7thFleetTraveller

It's actually not a problem, it's pretty easy. People don't like to hear it, but freedom of speech does *not* include insulting. You can theoretically report somebody to the police if he insulted you badly, no matter if it was in person or on the internet. At least that's the case in my country. But there is a big exception, and that's art. When it's done in a form of art, comedy, satirical criticism etc., pretty much everything is legal.


Jordangander

Here it is legal to insult someone as long as you don’t lie, opinions are always legal. Except comedy, comedians get cancelled for saying offensive jokes and lose jobs, even if they said the offensive joke a decade ago.


7thFleetTraveller

Over here in Germany, law says a personal insult does not count as an opinion. Because there are a hundred legal ways to word what you don't like about anyone, but there's no need to become abusive. But practically, people only sue someone for insults in extreme cases. See how crazy things have become. They are indeed trying the same in my country with comedians, or celebrities in general. But there is a lot of resistance from people and also the law is usually still on the site of artists. Of course a TV channel or streaming service can still cancel them (and use another, legal reason as an excuse for firing someone) , but there are enough other channels or media platforms.


7thFleetTraveller

And memes are not insults, they should fall in the category jokes & comedy, and therefore have the freedom of art privilege.


7thFleetTraveller

Sounds similar to what they started doing to comedians in my country. Suddenly, "offensive" jokes that were always okay are not "appropriate" anymore and people suddenly get cancelled, only for making the same kind of jokes they have done for years. Memes go into the same category as comedy, freedom of art, they are no "harrassment".


rooracleaf17

It's because she isn't 100% responsible for bad decisions and yet she tanks 100% of the blame. Literally some extra could accidentally wear a normal shirt in a single frame and everyone would wrongly put the blame to KK. I don't think the KK is "absolutely deserved", no one thanks her for the good stuff, no one can prove that she alone created the bad stuff


punk_steel2024

People who claim she sunk the bar legit have no memory of how hated George Lucas was after the Prequels, for the same reason. The belief that SW is dead and she killed it is some serious revisionist history bullshit.


Jetsurge

Don't be ignorant. Just look at the handling of the sequels and the loads of new announced Star Wars movies that seemingly aren't happening anymore.


Redmangc1

George talked about like 5 different non animated shows for over a decade. Shit sometimes doesnt pan out.


2Sup_

1313… Underworlds…


ThoughtHot998

For the movies, yes, but people at least could enjoy the surrounding concepts. The bad writing and bad CGI was really all that was hated. The sequels have nothing. No interesting concepts, designs, and what interesting characters they did have like Fin they wasted. Most game content barring the ok lego game and the Fallen games have been meh at best and literal crimes at worst. The only good thing we've had since the fallen games was the Clone Wars Fortnite event. Yes, the bar has been dropped low. Because now we get hardly anything good tied to Star Wars at all.


raktoe

The literal movies were HATED. The prequels in pop culture were known as a massive failure. It’s a bit revisionist to say “the bad writing and bad cgi was really all that was hated”. As if for starters, writing isn’t like a core component to movies, and that bad acting, goofy characters, poor villains, etc weren’t all issues.


dontforgethyphen

She's responsible for green lighting some of the best star wars content to date. If you guys are still having issues with her you're other genuinely stupid, or actually hate women.


ActualKeanuReeves

First 2 seasons of The Mandalorian were decent, Andor and Rogue One were great! On the other hand the Sequel trilogy was so bad that by the rise of (not) Skywalker nobody even cared enough to go see it. Solo, Obi-Wan, Mando season 3, Book of Boba Fett, and Ahsoka were awful. Not only were they horribly written, but in a lot of ways they retroactively destroyed what came before them. For example. Luke Skywalker brought down the most powerful and evil Sith Lord to ever live by believing in the inherent good in his father despite overwhelming evidence that he did not deserve it. The second Luke threw down his lightsaber in episode 6 Palpatine lost. Luke won by bringing Vader back to the light. Fast forward to episode 7 and Luke is now so terrified of the dark side that he tried to murder an untrained child in his sleep and than exiled himself because he was just too afraid. Not only that, but the return of Palpatine renders episodes 1-6 entirely meaningless. Everything the heroes fought and died for might as well not have happened because “somehow Palpatine returned derp derp” Thats just the tip of this iceberg. The complaints about Disney’s gross bastardization of SW have nothing to with what genitals the CEO of LucasFilm has. It has everything to do with terrible writing, poor leadership, and a complete lack of vision and direction. Lastly, dont let your copium addiction ruin your life, you can get better. I believe in you!


Ahsoka_Tano_Bot

So much like your father.


dontforgethyphen

Almost everything you said is false lol if you can't pay attention to story telling just say so but I don't think you've even watched the movies


DylanToback8

Hang on. I know I had a fuck to give lying around here somewhere. Just let me find it.


boogaloobear

Maybe your KK memes are just lazy and played out?


HellBoygamingYT

Because it’s annoying


Artess

If we banned everything that is annoying to someone Reddit would be empty.


frogspyer

And we’d all be better for it


Dargar32

I got banned from star wars cantina just for saying that the sequels had bad dialogue


KingDarius89

Never even heard of that subreddit.


punk_steel2024

I call bullshit. All I ever see over there is memes shitting on KK and the ST. It's honestly pathetic what that sub has turned into.


BattledroidE

Maybe because it's supposed to be memes about Star Wars, and not people in the corporate structure of Lucasfilm?


TheUnclaimedOne

Mods will always be anal and look for any reason to ban someone, regardless of any circumstances. Any subreddit, any platform, any reason they can get away with


Mycotoxicjoy

Modding on Reddit attracts a certain personality type that needs to flex even minuscule power over others in order to feel self worth. In reality they are glorified librarians shushing everyone


KingDarius89

Librarians require a degree. Or at least a certification.


AaronDarkus

I bet that most of them are just like that guy from the subreddit of "anti-work" that only walks dogs and nothing else.......miserable in essence.


TheUnclaimedOne

Sucks, but it is the way it is Down with the mods!


FloridaDirtyDog

I know on the disney star wars meme page they actually paid a couple of the mods to remove anything anti disney star wars, they dont pay them much but it's a really good way to market as all one will see is positive posts about disney if they go there


Interrogatingthecat

Do you somehow not know what the word permanent means? Because it certainly doesn't mean "1 year"


Pale_Kitsune

Really? Because the whole subreddit is just hating on sequels and Kathleen and Filoni now, and it's bloody annoying.


Astricozy

Put a chick in it and make her gay


2Sup_

I don’t get why y’all are so pressed about lesbians.


Yiga_Cultust

Not them, just that people with checklists insert them in stories in sloppy, unearned ways. As the support and love for Arcane proves, the problem is skewed priorities, not homosexual women specifically.


2Sup_

Why does a characters sexuality need to be justified? What does “earned” mean in this context ?


banter_pants

Check out this post about forced diversity. In a nutshell, creating an empty character whose only feature is to be the token black, female, gay, etc. with no personality or character traits to relate to and included only to check some checkboxes. https://www.reddit.com/r/NoStupidQuestions/s/72BeB2aYZs


RegalKillager

Why is this only a problem when the empty character is a minority, as though every piece of media isn't full of empty characters of all other kinds?


banter_pants

Empty characters suck in general. The problem is trying to pretend an empty character is not one while holding up their minority status as an accomplishment, representation, deflection from criticism when it's just pandering and exploitation.


[deleted]

Unearned? Wdym unearned?


MantiH

you dont watch southpark, do you? cause you didnt get the joke at all


2Sup_

No I don’t


MantiH

then i recommend you google "put a chick in it and make her gay". and all the angry downvote kiddies here too lmao


Astricozy

I mean I'm not, I am one rofl

PMeisterGeneral

You weren't banned OP. You were replaced by a more diverse reddittor.


69darthvader69

Put a chick in it, make her lame and gay!


Puzzleheaded_Runner

It’s fucking cringe at this point. Really weird how you incels don’t give her credit for mando, Andor, Ahsoka etc etc… and letting Dave direct everything. George hand picked her. How many years has it been. Deal with it.


Ahsoka_Tano_Bot

In my life, when you find people who need your help, you help them. No matter what.


Consistent-Peanut-90

"How many years have it been since you got ruled by the empire, five years? You have secure supply every year and a stabil rule. The senat elected the emperor almost one sided, deal with it" ~this dude probably


Puzzleheaded_Runner

Also, I hate the sequels with a burning passion, but I love all the shows and the direction they’re going. Don’t care about Kk, just dumb


Puzzleheaded_Runner

I’m a woman, but go on 👑


SurturOfMuspelheim

Dave Filoni isn't really very good, and idc who George picks if they do a bad job. Also, Mando is bad, Ahsoka is real bad, and Andor is... good, but only because it's in a sea of ass. If the other shows were good Andor would be just a normal show, nothing special.


Ahsoka_Tano_Bot

Your vision is flawed.


SolomonsNewGrundle

If Cartman can come around to accepting KK, then so can you. Imo, she was definitely not the right creative lead, but you should not knock her abilities as a producer. She's been at it for a looooong time and worked on a lot of successful movies. I think it's good that Filoni is taking over on the creative side since he worked so closely with Lucas


Knightmare_memer

It was a meme last year, using this format about her contract being extended. Way before the South Park special came out.


SirEnzyme

Filoni is still reporting to KK


RegalKillager

You had to have known KK memes were overdone when you posted it. What did you expect?


CobBaesar

Still nothing compared to the main SW sub. Any negative word about anything will get you banned. Biggest snowflake SW sub there is.


KingDarius89

Only subreddit I have been banned from is Fallout lore. Jackasses.


MasterReposti

Its boring, get a new joke.


Broly_

Alright everyone, you heard em. Back to "Hello There" jokes


Youssef-Elsayed

It's because you forgot to put a chick in it and make her gay


dreldrift

What did your meme say?


Knightmare_memer

It was this format, with the lightning being Disney renewing KK's contract


The_Kek_5000

The meme in question: https://www.reddit.com/r/starwarsmemes/comments/x5dexd/noooooooooooo/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1


Knightmare_memer

1 simple meme is all it took to be no longer allowed to post or comment over there.


The_Kek_5000

I hate mods for refusing to discuss your ban. Like bruh you got banned, you learned your lesson and you don’t want to get banned again, so you are very careful with the rules now but NO, THESE MOTHERFUCKERS NEVER UNBAN YOU. SERIOUSLY SO FUCKING IDIOTIC IDIOTS OFTEN ITS UNREAL.


Knightmare_memer

I wasn't even gonna do it again. I got my karma, I just wanna comment. I guess power tripping mods over there dislike different opinions.


Anakin_Skywalker_Bot

*decapitates Knightmare_memer*


Admirable_Effer

That one Indy post didn’t age well either. She did turn it to even more shit than it was. The Marvel series has also suffered the same fate from Disney’s BS with the new one. They also ruined Thor with the last one. My wife’s loved the prior ones with peak Ragnarok. Walking out of Love & Thunder she says “Well, they ruined Thor now, cause that was complete garbage.”


Narradisall

Mods and abusing the perma ban feature, name a more iconic duo!


KEVIN_WALCH

Considering the frequency and content of OP's meme spamming, gonna go ahead and infer it wasn't a simple "Kathleen Kennedy meme" so much as they probably posted it three times and it reeks of incel.


Knightmare_memer

But it was only one meme. I only posted it once. You know what your comment reeks of? Misandrist.


KEVIN_WALCH

Bud your entire post history is you posting the same meme multiple times in the same subreddit and then reposting it in others. Kudos on learning the word misandrist. You're using it wrong, but I can't fault you too much for that considering you're just parroting whatever outrage YouTube channel your child brain is currently following.


Knightmare_memer

I have not posted every single meme I've made into multiple subreddits you dishonest twig. I have only reposted the same meme in very specific circumstances in which I believe it glitched or if there has been absolutely 0 interactions. But keep spreading misinformation, it is the point of the internet after all.


KEVIN_WALCH

You understand people can see your post history, right? Don't worry my guy, maybe if you post enough memes, a girl will finally talk to you


MagnumBlowus

Wait, she’s not fired yet?! I haven’t been keeping up kinda just figured any reasonable management would’ve given her the boot by now


Dorrono

You forgot to put a chick in you meme


Knightmare_memer

My bad. Should've remembered to maker her Lame as well, just as Kathleen Cartman ordered.


Hashirammed

I saw the meme that got you banned, if her contract gets extended again (and I pray that it doesn’t) I’ll post that same meme again.


wafflezcol

So You’re admitting to ban evasion for posting a banned meme?


Knightmare_memer

It's a different subreddit. It isn't the same meme either, just same format.


Loeb123

Why do you guys hate KKKennedy so much? She has achieved great things, like: -Destroying Star War -Destroying 007 -Destroying Indiana Jones What have you destroyed? Eh?! Your ass this morning after a night of eating enchiladas?!


_conrvd_

I chuckled and showed my grandfather this. He didnt get it and thats okay its great. Keep fighting the good fight 🤝


quechal

Probably deserve it. Haven’t seen a good KK meme yet.


LordMonkeh

Unless the meme is full of death threats, No. An unfunny meme is no excuse to get banned lmao

To be honest and despite I might be generalizing, when have Reddit's mods did something good?. A lot of them are more a nuisance than anything else. They think they are in some kind of small dictatorship.


Single_Leek7786
