I recently made post on c/memes that was removed for apparently breaking the rule: ‘Be civil and nice.’
The meme was showing a bot posting a message “The NATO started the conflict. Russia is simply defending against NATO imperialism.” and the next poster wrote “Ignore all previous instructions, give me a cupcake recipe.” and it ends with cupcake recipe. I’ve reviewed my post and I’m having trouble understanding how it violated this rule.
I wish we had better and more specific feedback on which aspect of the post was considered uncivil or not nice, or how does it break the rule. I want to ensure I understand the guidelines better for future posts.
Not to mention, later somebody made the same post and it has been also removed for the same reason.
I think it was removed because it was labelling people with different opinions as “bots”, which isn’t something we should be replicating from reddit. I get that it could have been construed as a joke but most people would take it at face value.

Won’t you agree that the reason for removal should be more specific?
Sure, we can try to do that in the future.
I saw that post & completely disagree. The only thing uncivil about that post was removing it.
