💬 Opinion / Discussion How Moderation Works in r/circled

5 Upvotes

Political viewpoints are not moderated.

Behavior is.

We remove comments because of behavior.

That includes:

  • Dehumanizing language
  • Criminal accusations without evidence
  • Explicit threats or violence advocacy
  • Spam or coordinated disruption

Calling other users “pedophile,” “racist trash,” “defender of child rape,” etc. will be removed — regardless of political direction.

Criticize ideas.

Criticize policies.

Criticize public figures.

Do not attack other users.

Moderation decisions are rule-based and documented.

If you disagree with a removal, use modmail.

If you see rule violations, use the report function instead of escalating.

Thank you for respecting the community rules.

We are building a space where people can disagree strongly — without degrading each other.

That standard applies equally to everyone.

We appreciate good-faith participation.

Dataset 9, EFTA01230639.

This image shows Jeffrey Epstein on Epstein Island with a group of men. Online researchers identify one of them as Howard Lutnick.

Lutnick previously testified under oath that he only visited the island with his wife and children. This photo appears to show a group of men.

At the same time, the DOJ Epstein files page has repeatedly failed to load properly for users trying to access the documents.

Why was this image removed?

The cover up happening in real time...

It appears to show Trump's own Commerce Secretary, Howard Lutnick, on Epstein Island.

The man on the right is believed to be Michael Lehrman. The two young men on the left are likely his and Lutnick's sons — the "two 16's" referenced in related emails.

Opinion / Discussion An email has been discovered recently that shows Trump was contacted to contribute to Epstein’s 50th birthday book, a book with a sexually suggestive letter encouraging Epstein to have more secrets, signed allegedly by Trump. Trump denies writing the letter, but this email points to the opposite.

Opinion / Discussion The Aaron Swartz Rabbit Hole: New Evidence Linking His Prosecution to Elite Networks and Hidden Motives

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

222 Upvotes

Aaron Swartz was a brilliant programmer and a co-founder of Reddit who dedicated his life to the pursuit of internet freedom and equal access to information.

The standard narrative is that he took his own life in 2013 while facing an aggressive federal prosecution for downloading academic journals from JSTOR. However, a deeper look into the files suggests that the official story might be another piece of manufactured programming designed to hide a much darker reality. The timing of his death and the entities involved in his prosecution raise significant questions that challenge the standard accepted truths of the case.

The evidence presented in this video connects Swartz to some of the most influential and controversial figures of the last decade. It highlights a startling connection between Swartz and Marty Weinberg, who served as a lawyer for Jeffrey Epstein for twenty years. Furthermore, an email from Joi Ito of the MIT Media Lab to Epstein titled "Jewish hero Aaron Swartz exposing elite child abuse" points toward a motive that goes far beyond simple copyright infringement.

The video claims that Swartz was actually uncovering evidence of an elite child abuse ring with ties to high level government and corporate institutions. Even the circumstances of his arrest, involving both the MIT police and a Secret Service agent, suggest a level of interference that feels highly illogical for a data theft case.

I encourage you to watch this footage and start your own research into this rabbit hole because the real truth is often buried under layers of institutional protection. Swartz's father explicitly stated at the funeral that his son was killed by the government, a statement that has been dismissed as metaphorical by the mainstream media. We should analyze these connections with a logical and analytical mind while remaining open to the possibility that the world we are shown is not the whole picture. It is time to look past the official reports and see if we can find the genuine truth that Aaron Swartz may have been trying to bring to light.
