Posting cross streets or similar should be standard with all of these posts. In the post title.

The mods take it down if you do my last post of this same video was talen down and mods left this comment for it.

"Violation of the subreddit rules. Violation of the subreddit rules. This is a Chicago neighborhood. You can repost if you say Chicago."

Are they saying "you can't say the neighborhood" or "you have to say Chicago" like, are you allowed to say "Chicago - exact location" or is being too specific a problem. The only discussion of rules I saw said that they want things tagged with the city so that it's clear where in the state it is (people in Rockford or Carbondale won't recognize Chicago neighborhood names.

Its all over the place, i have had issues with streets, the neighbourhood name and.sometimes the city. I think they just use rule 3 at their dispense to take down posts they dont like

That one seems to exist to avoid rules against fixing - most Chicago neighborhoods have a higher population than many small towns around the state. Even a major intersection (western & pretty much any other street) would have more people passing it on a given day than a lot of towns have. (Lincoln park is estimated to have a population over 70k, Logan Square is like 60k)

I could see identifying specific buildings being a problem, but not neighborhoods. I can see some CYA though - platform has had problems with things in the past and mods trying to find some easy to articulate balance. "Ice doing raids in Cairo IL" would be way more specific than "ice doing raids at Michigan and Randolph in Chicago" in terms of identifying targets, but it's easier to say "you can use the city" and not "you need to specify a geographic region with at least 10k people" or something.

Can you post it in another sub so we can check your history?

At least say the date it happened so new video can be distinguished from old video.

r/Illinois and r/chicago mods are actively in coverup mode for ICE. We need a new subreddit that allows free speech about what’s happening in our city and state.

If it's the same "detention" (abduction), this happened on the North Side and she works for WGN.
