Looking for an image subreddit with minimal rules? Check out /r/images

A place to share interesting photographs and pictures. Feel free to post your own, but please read the rules first (see below), and note that we are not a catch-all for general images (of screenshots, comics, etc.)

Spoiler code

Please mark spoilers like this:
[text here](/spoiler)

Hover over to read.

Rules

  1. No screenshots, or pictures with added or superimposed text. This includes image macros, comics, info-graphics and most diagrams. Text (e.g. a URL) serving to credit the original author is exempt.

  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

  4. No solicitation of votes (including "cake day" posts), posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. DAE posts go in /r/DoesAnybodyElse. "Fixed" posts should be added as a comment to the original image.

  5. Submissions must link directly to a specific image file or to an image hosting website with minimal ads. We do not allow blog hosting of images ("blogspam"), but links to albums on image hosting websites are okay. URL shorteners are prohibited.

  • If your submission appears to be filtered but definitely meets the above rules, please send us a message with a link to the comments section of your post (not a direct link to the image). Don't delete it as that just makes the filter hate you!

  • If you come across any rule violations, please report the submission or message the mods and one of us will remove it!

Please also try to come up with original post titles. Submissions that use certain clichés/memes will be automatically tagged with a warning.

sometimes it takes something like this to remind us of how well off we are. unfortunately the memory of this won't last too long and soon enough we will be back to bitching about whatever is bothering us.

Wow, 3 billion people can read English?

This was designed by a billionaire to keep the lower and middle classes in America from standing up to the legalized theft they are experiencing right now.

Honestly though, I'm all for acknowledging what we have rather than what we don't have but if you're an American, you were born into (or naturalized into) what used to be the greatest nation in the world.

It's not the greatest nation in the world anymore and there's nothing wrong with acknowledging that people used to not die in the streets because they cannot get health care and that being able to read will not exclusively qualify you for a job here.

Yes, you're better off than a lot of people but you're worse off than your parents were at your age. How about that?
