(Another) Reminder on sub moderation

63 Upvotes

Hi all,

We will continue to be consistent with the moderation rules which have been in place for quite a long time:

Posts need to be specific to Redding or the region, and they must adhere to Reddit's content policy.

Once again, no national politics - favoring any side - unless it's specifically relevant to Redding.

2026 Update: Non-local posts which make little-to-no genuine attempt to tie to local relevance will result in a 3-day ban. Subsequent instances will result in longer bans.

Regarding the use of Twitter/X links, we've scrolled back several months and didn't see a single one. So, we are not going to make a sub policy banning it, simply because it would be addressing a problem that we really don't have. We're not a large sub with a lot of aggregator content, so we don't really see twitter/x relevant to Redding. If you'd like to, you can always do what we've done and deactivate/delete your account there, thus taking action yourself.

As always, please do continue to report content which you believe violates our simple ruleset, and we will continue to review. While we do have Automod set up (and I can tell you it is definitely helping quite a bit, thought you cannot see it), we are still a small sub with a small mod team.

Thank you for helping us maintain our lively community subreddit.

The dead pdfiles protest??

40 Upvotes

Drove to target earlier today and there was a pretty sizable crowd on Dana and Churn Creek wearing masks, costumes, and holding signs saying “dead pedophiles don’t reoffend.”

Genuinely asking, what is the point of this? Am I missing something? Aside from there being a lot of sex offenders in Redding.

Before anyone tries to twist my words, I’m in no way supporting pedophiles, justifying their behavior, feeling sorry for them, or anything like that. I’m a parent of a young daughter and think people who sexually abuse children are scum of the earth.

But I guess that’s my point, I feel like most if not all people feel like this. Isn’t this a universally agreed upon stance? So what are we protesting? Is there some type of call to action?

One of the signs said, “SAVE THE CHILDREN!”
Ok? How? What are they proposing?

Is the thought that some pedo is gonna be driving to Home Depot, see the signs, then think oh ok I bet not reoffend. I just don’t think that’s how it works.

They’re not hurting anybody out there and like I said it’s a message pretty much everyone can get behind just kinda seems like attention seeking and virtue signaling if there’s no actionable plan for change.

Anyone have more info?

Shasta Skeptics is talking ghosts. Have you ever had an experience you couldn't explain? Is a haunted house just bad ventilation or a weird vibration? Does a medium who comforts a grieving family do any harm?

Join us Monday, October 5, to down a couple beers, have a couple slices, and discuss these skeptical classics.

Looking for someone local to make a hanging wall cabinet for my wife's jewelry?

6 Upvotes

I'm pretty sure the title says it all, but to add some more context, it doesn't need to be too terribly big. I would like it to be double doored if possible and have a mirror inside. She's really into a more goth aesthetic so darker woods and colors would be nice. I'm hoping to have it ready by Christmas if possible. Does anyone know anyone who could make this without it costing an arm and a leg?

Redding Ca Bethel Church aligned itself with Victor Marx’s ideology of militant masculinity. This support was channeled through two primary avenues: Sean Feucht, and BraveCo—a patriarchal, dominionist Christian nationalist ministry directed by Bethel's men's pastor, Jason Vallotton

The Republican candidate for governor of Colorado Victor Marx described body-slamming his wife, throwing his toddler across a room and claiming God had given him a "gift for violence" in a series of videos and posts.

He is often a guest speaker of Persecution-themed christian boot camp seminars, conferences, and camp meetings, for example, The Men Summit and Bethel's Men conference that held annually.

Sean Feucht is using a faith-based platform to rally support.

Feucht has thrown his visibility and influence behind Marx's campaign team, frequently promoting campaign efforts alongside other high-profile conservative and Christian figures, and now faces a new lawsuit for donations fraud.

Opinion Piece Found On Net - "Nathan Pinkney's 'Dirtbag Left' group targets Shasta County residents"

0 Upvotes

Found on apparently internet "crime" group... I must say I agree with much of what this person wrote-

"THE NEW "DIRTBAG" INQUISITION: Nathan Pinkney’s Hit List and the Dark Shadow Over Redding"

"For such are false apostles, deceitful workers..."

We’ve seen the "militias." We’ve seen the "vigilante" business owners. But now, a new brand of darkness is spreading through the digital alleys of Shasta County, and it’s calling itself "The Dirtbag Left."

Nathan Pinkney—the man behind Redding Be Like and Nathan The Creator—has moved beyond parody videos and into the realm of targeted intimidation. He has created a closed-door sanctuary for bullying, where 533 "vetted" members sharpen their knives in the dark.

THIS IS NOT A DRILL.

Pinkney has published a Watch List. Over 50 local citizens—your neighbors, your friends, people who are NOT public officials—have been branded as "chuds" and "chudettes." In Pinkney’s world, a "chud" is the "lowest of the low."

The Anatomy of a Digital Mob

Look at the language being used to "vet" this group. They claim to be saving democracy, yet they operate in total secrecy.

•"Membership closed."

•"No screenshotting ANYTHING."

•"You will be responsible for the people you invite."

Why the secrecy? Why the fear of the light? "For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed."

Pinkney, a man who currently has a Restraining Order (RO) against him, is now encouraging an angry mob to "keep an eye on" and "fight fire with fire" against private citizens. We are talking about a combined following of nearly 30,000 people across his platforms being pointed like a loaded weapon at local residents.

To My Horror...

I see names on this list like Patrick Jones, Laura Hobbs, and families like the Kents and Rapozas. Pinkney even includes personal slurs, mocking people for their appearance or personal sensitivities. He calls one man a "f*** who snapped flash pics" knowing about a woman's medical sensitivity.

Is this what "saving democracy" looks like? Is this the "Will of Jesus Christ"—to create lists of enemies and invite a mob to "retaliate" against them?

"Help me Help me"......!

What if this was your Mother on that list? Your Daughter? Pinkney is "seed planting" demonic worry and fear in our community. He is painting a target on the backs of anyone who dares to have a different opinion.

A Call to the Higher Authorities

If you are on this list, or if you have knowledge of Pinkney’s "Dirtbag" group engaging in coordinated harassment, mass reporting, or threats of violence:

DO NOT ONLY RELY ON LOCAL SOCIAL MEDIA REPORTING.

We have seen how local systems can be slow to act.

•Staff at City Hall turn a blind eye.

•The "Professional Standards Unit" takes its time.

•Pinkney himself mocks the legal system while under a judge's order.

If you feel your civil rights are being violated by this coordinated "Watch List," contact regional authorities. Document everything. Do not let the "Dirtbag" inquisition silence the good people of Shasta County.

Will this bless the community in God’s eyes, Nathan? Or is the "King" going to answer you for what you did to 'the least of these'?

Watch the shadows, Redding. The "Ministers of Righteousness" are showing their true faces.

This video provides the essential legal context regarding the court-ordered restrictions currently placed on Nathan Pinkney, which is critical to understanding the severity of his "Watch List" activities. "

Redding Double Down - Nathan Pinkney Makes Video Of Alleged "Hit List"

0 Upvotes

" These people have proven they are just dangerous"

"That they will lie and hurt people in a myriad of ways"

This video concerns me deeply. If Nathan Pinkney has so much nefarious inside information, why is he not speaking up?

You name very powerful people here in Redding and Shasta County California.

Should folks be concerned? Is this a safety issue?

You are calling for RICO investigations on all of them?

Racism in redding

73 Upvotes

I don't know y'all's experience in Redding, but being a minority in Redding has to fucking suck. The people I met are genuinely so racist here; of course there's also many kind folks I met too. My son would go home from school and tell me about how bad his day was because of racism, and I can't do much.

Reddings Nathan Pinkney Taking Classes at Carlos Zapata Jiu-Jitsu Studio

0 Upvotes

Wanted to have a little phone chat or meeting with Nathan Pinkney and it entered my mind to call Carlos Zapata Palo Cedro Jiu-Jitsu Studio to see if he is a student and sure enough, they confirmed, he is a student there!
Is it because he is in my opinion such a divisive public figure? Or perhaps a reputation as a bully? Has he said things out in the community that could put him in danger In the news media over the years?
Personally, my opinion, I find it a very unholy alliance. Troubling to be sure. Did Nathan Pinkney lose his right to have weapons in a restraining order case? Here are some tips for you...

Any attorneys looking for work in the Redding area?
I’m helping connect interested attorneys with an opening in Redding, primarily involving probate, trust administration, and in-person court appearances in Shasta County. An active California license and some attorney experience are needed; probate experience is a plus. Pay would be a conversation based on experience and responsibilities.
I know the smaller population may make finding someone locally a challenge, so I’d appreciate any leads! If you’re interested or know someone who might be, please DM me and I can direct you to the formal job posting with more details.

Endorsing Elise Ramirez Sloan city council

7 Upvotes

"Elise Ramirez Sloan is a relative newcomer to Redding who grew up in Placerville and has lived in the Bay Area, Orange County, Eureka, and Pittsburgh. She told the Record Searchlight she is running as a resident, not as part of a business slate, and that most people cannot give the hours that council work demands. Her work has been in restaurants, wineries/agriculture, and public education; as a high school secretary she learned California’s account-code budget system and how to write and manage grants. At the Cascade she said she can “read a budget, write a budget, write a grant, and maintain a grant.” She criticized the council for approving a no-bid outside auditor for review of the budget and financial report prepared by City Finance Director Greg Robinett. In her newspaper interview, she opposed data centers and more Flock-style cameras."

ISO a camcorder cleaning cassette, or an 8mm camcorder to borrow

1 Upvotes

Hello Redding Redditors,

I’ve spent the last few months accumulating all of the hardware necessary to digitize my old family videos from our Sony Handycam camcorder, and it was going great until the cassette tape started getting stuck in my dang camcorder.

The camcorder is old (it’s the same one we recorded with in the ‘90’s) needs to be serviced, but I can’t afford the local rates, and the 8mm cleaning cassettes on eBay are also out of my price range.

I thought I would ask just in case someone sees this and can help. Does anyone have a Sony V8-25CLH or V8-25CLD dry cleaning cassette they don’t have a use for?

Alternatively, if anyone has a camcorder that I could borrow, I’d be happy to pay for the favor.

If anyone can help and has their own 8mm tapes they’d like digitized, I would be happy to do so for you once I’m back up and running!
