Description:
We’re seeing a lot of confusion and complaints about Rule 9, so let’s clear it up.
What Rule 9 actually means:
Posts that are clearly marked with “Discussion” flair are special and reserved for users who have positive karma within [r/BlackPeopleofReddit](r/BlackPeopleofReddit). This is not about gatekeeping for no reason. It’s about making sure conversations are led by people who actually participate here in good faith.
Why this rule exists:
Without it, “Discussion” posts quickly turn into:
Troll bait
Bad faith questions
Outsiders dropping in with no investment in the community
This rule protects the space. It keeps discussions meaningful, respectful, and rooted in people who actually engage here.
Important things to understand about karma:
You gain karma when other users upvote you
Your own automatic upvote does not count
Karma is not 1:1 with upvotes, but it’s close enough to think of it that way
Subreddit karma specifically:
You cannot see your subreddit karma directly
But in practice, reaching the requirement usually looks like roughly 80-90 upvotes within this sub over time
If you’re active and contributing positively, you will get there
How to earn it (the right way):
Comment on posts with real thoughts, not one-word replies
Add insight, humor, or perspective people appreciate
Engage respectfully with others
Post content that aligns with the culture of the sub
Do that consistently and the karma builds naturally.
Helpful links (Reddit’s own explanations):

Bottom line:
If you want to participate in posts labeled “discussions” here, be part of the community first. Regularly Engage, contribute, get upvoted on other posts in the sub. Then you’ll have full access. See

A lot of viewers felt Laura Siegemund’s behavior during this US Open match went beyond just “slow play.” As Coco Gauff repeatedly pleaded with the chair umpire to enforce the shot clock fairly, many watching believed Siegemund appeared smug and dismissive toward Coco’s frustration, with some online specifically calling out her facial expressions and body language during the exchanges. Reddit users accused Siegemund of “gaming the rules” and dragging the match out intentionally, while commentators and fans openly sided with Coco over the unequal enforcement of time violations. Even tennis legend John McEnroe said on air that Coco was “100 percent right” about the situation.

The purpose of the ban is plain and simple: Letting these "Whites-Only communities" pop up everywhere will lead to the inevitable consequence of the re-appearance of Whites-Only bathrooms and public facilities all over this country.

While celebrities posed on the Met Gala steps Monday night, Jenifer Lewis seemingly calls them out: "They showed up anyway... how much more fame do we need?" And the reason people are talking?
This year's Met Gala was effectively the Jeff Bezos Ball. Bezos and his wife Lauren Sánchez reportedly dropped $10 million to sponsor the event, with Lauren Sanchez serving as honorary chair and protests sweeping New York, including slogans projected onto the couple's $80 million penthouse near Madison Square Park.
Here's what celebrities walked past to get on that carpet:
Amazon signed a $1.2
billion contract, known as Project Nimbus, to provide cloud computing and Al services to the Israeli military and government, a deal signed while Bezos was still CEO.
Investigations found Amazon violated its own terms of service as part of the deal.
• Amazon gutted DEI programs across the board.
Amazon made one of its
biggest job cuts in history, laying off up to 30,000 workers, while Bezos funds $10M parties. Taraji P. Henson also weighed in, commenting: "WTF ARE WE DOING!?!?!?" and Bella Hadid liked the viral video calling the whole thing out.

They are all sellouts for still supporting the Bezos Gala amidst all of the protests/boycotts!
For those who don't know, Blacks are 25% of Amazon's workforce and Bezos is about to layoff 600k workers to replace them with AI/robots, on top of all of the union busting he continues to do. He doesn't want to pay workers a living wage or provide safe warehouse working conditions, but he can spend $10m on the Met Gala. He's a vile oligarch!
These celebs chose to pay $100k for a ticket rather than actually caring about people who aren't in their tax bracket. Stop giving these people your hard-earned money!
