You know what is even more frustrating? Your link proves my point . you didn't even fucking read what you posted.
""The photograph you're referring to was a facility in Arizona — I recognize the photograph because Gov. Brewer was with me — and it was during the spike ... and we had a lot of unaccompanied kids, we had a lot of family units. And under the law, once they're apprehended by the border patrol, within 72 hours, we have to transfer unaccompanied children to (the Department of Health and Human Services). And HHS then puts them in a shelter, and they find placement for them somewhere in the United States." Johnson explained.
He said the construction of the 72-hour holding facilities was prompted by a sudden influx of migrants.
Local NBC affiliate KVEQ [reported ]1 on the conversion of a McAllen, Texas, warehouse into a holding facility for up to 1,000 migrant children in 2014.
"You can't just dump 7-year-old kids on the streets of McAllen or El Paso. And so, these facilities were erected ... they put those chain-link partitions up so you could segregate young women from young men, kids from adults, until they were either released or transferred to HHS. Was it ideal? Of course not," Johnson said.

The mods will keep us safe.
If they ban you from talking or posting about it, it never happened.
I just applied to be a mod and answered the questions on the form if you click the sidebar, I think my answers give me a good chance :
[I love Germany and will always defend Germany because this sub is for the benefits of Germany for Germans I will join the German mod team and defend Germany for all Germany and the land that surrounds Germany ]
Question Answer Where are you from

so many great Nestle products..... and I have not knowingly touched one in years.
Any company that argues water is not a human right can fuck off and die. They are a blight, a scourge a pox on humanity and their chocolate is probably the residue from an enema sack solidified and sold for a buck - go on... take that bite now!
Lets also not forget stealing water, backing Zimbabwe's Mugabe regime... and profiting from it.... and many many many more.
If you do very little ethical purchasing... avoiding Nestle AND their subsidiaries would be a solid first step
HERE: Nestle provided a helpful list [[link]2
AND STOP USING NESCAFE PODS!!!!!!! you are not only a sucker for buying into a system that guarantees ongoing expenditure, but part of the problem of the mountain of waste and raw materials needed. - you can purchase re-susable pods online, or biodegradable pods.
oh and just a reminder... Maggi 2 Minute noodles had a problem in a market... from memory it was possible heavy metals in Thailand from memory... the bastards just sold in in a different market. Have not touched since
50 year old guy... no kids. If I can give a shit and take action.....

Yee but honestly I'd rather have gridlock because even tho I think Biden is miles ahead of Trump I still think he's a giant piece of shit. He has a narc judge for a vp and a history of voting for shut i dont like
If I knew for a fact all he was going yo do was focus on legislation concerning climate change, Healthcare, education, infrastructure, the electoral College, and the wealth gap then im down but he has a lot of rhetoric I hate and I'm not convinced he wouldn't focus on that as a quick "win" for his reelection win with sjws

Please include links when you bring up topics like that.
And no, neither I nor any other of our mods say "it's all Americans". We've got enough "native" issues, but we can generally handle them if we're aware of them.
What I did say is that threads get substantially worse once they hit .
As for this portion:
It didn't get much upvotes as you would expect
That's something we're generally aware of, not just as mods but also as users. Hell, you can easily find links [even in my post history]1 ([or this one, even worse]2 ) that should raise more than a few eyebrows when you compare the severity of the topic with the amount of attention it gets.
There have been more than a few events where I heard news about these kinds of events and went "Oh, let me check out the thread for that" - just to find it not posted or buried already.
Fact of the matter is, that whoever gets to threads first via sets the tone for threads and dictates how well they perform. If you have a solution to this kind of issue I'm genuinely all ears since I've personally seen this often enough to not like it one bit.

no

Is it a common practice for Reddit to recruit personnel from state security services to serve as mods for country-subreddits?
Leading question. There is no evidence at all for that in the first place.
Assuming yes
You know what they say about "assume"
Do you think regular redditors should be informed that their national subreddits (such as ) are controlled by personnel from state security services?
It isn't the case, so there is nothing to be informed about.

There will be a TL;DR at the bottom, which, in accordance with most TL;DR rules really isn't one, but it sums this thing up
Therefore we cannot comment on what their hiring standards and practices are as we have no say whatsoever in that.
Since I am the founder of , I can. was one of the very first user-created subreddits on Reddit as a whole.
When I joined Reddit, and started the subreddit pretty much as soon as Reddit opened for subreddit, the site was - at best - a few thousand users, with something like less than 100 of them being from Norway. It was meant as a place for Norwegians to share stories in Norwegian, from Norwegian sources, or stories that were particularly relevant to Norway.
For many years, letting the subreddit be self-governed worked extremely well, and I was the sole moderator, with a workload of "exactly zero" - participants had a sense of common decency, debated with honesty and respect, when there was debate. It all worked remarkably well.
Fast-forward a few years. Reddit had grown, and so had . Which made people with clear and single-minded agendas join. Some of said agendas were and are in direct conflict with what I stand for as a human being. At this time, Reddit still listed who had founded a subreddit in the sidebar, so I felt that even if I left, it had become my Hotel California - I could check out, but never truly leave.
So, I started combing comments, looking for participants that seemed well-balanced. By well-balanced, I mean users who:
Refrain from insults, even when insulted
Don't practice hate speech
Act as overall balanced, responsible, courteous adults
During this same period some rules concerning "hate speech" and "being an agenda with a Reddit account" were put in place, to ensure that the subreddit wasn't completely overrun by hate speech or those that welcome hate speech were put in place.
People With Agendas™ didn't like this. At all. They didn't like that we enforced a 10% rule on any particular agenda - it didn't matter to us whether that agenda was Kvikk Lunsj, communism, right-wing politics or weed.
Sometime during this period, some users threatened me directly - letting it be known they knew my real identity. They were pretty much equally threatening towards anyone not willing to be poster boys for their political agenda. If this was some mirror universe, I could've had to answer for something like Poor Boys, even if I share absolutely zero of their beliefs.
Since the workload and personal focus became unbearable - to the point that I had to - somewhat in panic - place a call to the police because of threats, I looked around for more mod help. Which is the "third round of moderators", whom I approached after having seen them run a chat service for the users of the subreddit, and done so with great success. Even if I was very much a skeptic when they wanted to run it, and allow it to be promoted on .
They turned out to run their chat service in a very mature manner, so they were invited - by me - to become part of the general moderator team to share the workload, both because I believed they would be an overall force for good in the subreddit, to oppose me, and to take the subreddit from "Tech dinosaur" to something that would appeal to people that aren't fast approaching boomer age.
This has worked out exceedingly well. After hiring them, has become a place that is welcoming to people both under and over 40. It doesn't read like , and you can post there wherever you fit on the ethnical, political, or gender spectrum as long as you aren't a "reddit acount with a single-minded agenda". Which basically boils down to the 10% rule, don't spam and stay courteous towards those you discuss with.
To this day, I still don't know the age, gender, occupation, sexual orientation, political affiliation, first or last name of any of my co-moderators. While I don't moderate as actively any more, I try to keep on top of what's happening, and if somebody would step way out of line, I would step in.
TL;DR:
The composition of moderators in is pretty much random. They've come on board in three waves, and they've come on board as a result of behavior in the subreddit.
I still don't know the age, gender, occupation, sexual orientation, political affiliation, first or last name of any of my co-moderators
The closest this'll get to the national security services of Norway is that I used to know a guy who either works for or used to work for them - I don't know, because it's well over a decade since I last spoke to the guy.
As a final point here, and this is from me having been recruited into other subreddits: Reddit moderators are often a coalition of the reluctant or unwilling. It's my firm view that people that actively seek a moderator position are the least able. None of the moderators below me in the list have actively sought a position as moderator, and if they had, I would have rejected them as a matter of principle.

I grew up in Canada (born 1972) and we didnt get a lot of the electronic stuff. It was all rock and hiphop. If you went to a danceclub you might hear some house or progressive house or maybe trance. But to me, "electronic music" meant Fatboy Slim and the Chemical Brothers.
I remember my first trip to Berlin and visiting the old Tresor though ... I heard "real" techno for the first time and it almost melted my face off.

At least I can go outside knowing that I'll be safe and sound in my country of italy and I don't have to sweat in paranoia of being gunned down. The last terrorist attack we had was in the 80s or some shit at a metro station in bologna and it wasn't even by foreigners it was by Italians.
You took in millions of immigrants with no regulation whatsoever and then you are surprised that you get terrorists and spikes in crime? And then have the audacity to warn other countries about terrorists? Like we know we aren't that fucking stupid. Looks like the religion of peace is working out well for you.
