I'm starting to wonder if the head reddit weirdo is getting paid directly by Musk to enforce shit like this

I had my main and a business account permabanned during the election, after Trump said Liz Cheney should be shot. I said I didn’t really care or have any empathy, because Liz is a warmonger who’s called for violence against millions of people.

I didn’t say I agreed, and I didn’t say someone should do it. I simply said I didn’t care that she felt threatened by him. Permabanned.

Likewise.

My first offense was recommending that we bring back the guillotine.

My second offense was saying that MTG and fElon needed to get punched in the face after they said that Sesame Street was woke trash that needed to be canceled.

Fuck those vile pieces of shit!

Over 13 years and a quarter million karma later, it has come down to this.

I was permanently banned for “inciting violence” by saying how great it would be if a meteor crashed down on Mike Johnson. A meteor….

I got my 10+ year old account permabanned for saying “trans women are women”, which somehow went against their rules about promoting violence. No warning given or anything. Appeal went ignored.

Yeah I got banned for 7 days then used my alt account and got hit with a perma ban. I got banned last summer and have not really regretted it. I was part of the Digg migration so I had been there a long time. I was pissed at first then I realized it really means nothing in the end.

I got banned for calling a guy a "fascist sanewasher" and refusing to post an apology when a mod messaged me to tell me to apologize.

I gotta ask, whats the comment exactly my brœther?

Holy crap that is EXACTLY what happened to me this week. I wasn’t top contributor or anything so grand but I got a 7 ban after criticizing imperialism which after making an appeal that was rejected. I literally did nothing afterwards but woke up to a perma ban that was issued several hours after with no indication of why.

Edolf 🤣 using this from now on

First permaban was for asking: "Any updates on Mitch McConnell? I could use some good news." Mod appeal denied

Then on another account a year later (bc I got so many death threats from Nazis on Reddit), I forgot I had a ban on that sub and said, "We should spend money feeding our kids instead of spending it to blow up someone else's kids." And that was an IP ban.

Crazy, I've seen literal Nazis on there not even get comments removed. We live in dark times.

I got shadowbannned after posting about politics.

I never called for or celebrated violence, didn't upvote pictures of Luigi (which they have a STRANGE hard-on for) or any of that. I just posted neutrally-worded opinions.

Shadowbanning is an abusive behavior and Reddit has been about that for well over a decade. On Twitter, you do something they don't like, they just tell you, "you have to delete this tweet and wait 12 hours" or whatever. On Reddit, your account just gets "weird" with strange error messages. You have to go digging for information on the phenomenon because they don't display a message or send an email about it.

The cute little aliens are there to paper over the fact that Reddit's leadership has no concept of user advocacy. You're just rows in a few tables to them. You're the product that's being sold, and as far as they're concerned that gives you the same rights as any other product on a shelf.

They are still sending me emails with cute little aliens in them, even though my account is hosed. This is how disjointed they are.

Someone else wrote that on Reddit, the users and admins hate each other. I think that's true.

Yeah I moved here for a ban too. Mine was political. I was banned for telling a mod that I will spank them and, essentially, that they will like it

Spez is a spineless cuck.

I got banned for saying Andrew Tate fans are fucking retarded.

Welp, said Elon needs to be assassinated for involving himself in European politics as a non European plutocrat

It's funny how we used to have this trope of the mighty censorship bureau that has to rubberstamp everything (like they do for movies) but the reality is that the sycophants will trip over themselves to censor their neighbors in order to please those above. In Reddits case you have subreddit mods banning and censoring to please the reddit mods, who are trying to please reddit management, who are trying to please people like Musk, who are trying to please Trump. Trump doesn't have to say anything, those low level Mods are doing all the censoring for him pro bono.

Same, happened to me hours ago, with no message stating why, or no recourse.

Elon whined to Spez to do something about Redditors being mean to him.

I guess it worked. Fuck both of them.
