Bye Reddit

I got banned for saying the dude that cut a guys throat with his stake should get banned for life from the game of hockey and got to jail. The mod banned me for 3 days and I said I stand by my comment and then I got a permaban. Fuck reddit.

I called malaria trump a whore.

Like, she fucked a decrepit orange ogre for money.

Edit, lol, malaria. Keeping that. Fitting.

On a post about a local company not wanting to serve LGBT folks... i said, vote with your wallets. Let the free market decide their fate. Apparently anything short of wanting to burn the place to the ground is considered bigotry.

Suggesting anyone wearing one of Kanye’s new swastika shirts, be punched immediately.

Someone else posted that they wanted to fire Bezos off in a rocket never to return. I replied that it would be more appropriate to float him down the Amazon. My comment (and only mine) was banned for "inciting violence".

I stopped keeping track I also haven't logged in for almost two years.

I got banned more than once for literally symmetrically repeating a comment calling to violence, inverted. The original comment's author wouldn't get banned, I would. Right of Sunnis to genocide everyone else in the Middle-East is protected, but not right of anyone else to genocide Sunnis, for example. Turkish nationalists are just as protected as Sunnis. Also a few emotional comments about people sticking their nose where they shouldn't and the reaction to that not being protest got me banned. All kinda political.

Also a few comments which were not specific enough to get their meaning without participating in a discussion, which nobody did, unlike hitting the report button. Typical Reddit.

Basically it's everything which can be interpreted as calls to violence or support of bigotry, except for approved kinds of violence and bigotry, and these are allowed of all degrees, and I mean all. You get banned for a slur, while someone else casually calls for genocide and doesn't get banned.

TLDR - talking politics in such places is useless and unpleasant.

I just said I wanted to see more CEO blood in the streets. Perfectly harmless sentiment imo.

I said we used to have a method of dealing with traitors

Since the Digg Exodus, I've gone through a dozen accounts on Reddit, typically for strongly disagreeing with figures in various administrations. I'm too old anymore to care.

I still do not know why I was banned. I just got some generic "broke reddit TOS". When I appealed asking what rule I broke and promised to not break it again they instantly denied the appeal with no further explanation.

Fuck em.

Haven't been banned, but the bastards did make the reddit Boost app useless about a week ago. I switched to RedReader, but I don't like the app as much, so I don't stay on it as long now. Been using Lemmy a lot more.

I’ve been permabanned multiple times for fairly innocuous comments. The most egregious was getting banned for typing “whyteboi victimhood.” Mod said I was racist/sexist. I am a white male.

My most recent ban was for threatening violence for typing that I wish I could “stomp out” anti-intellectualism. Such a violent threat from me.

did you just say santa isn't real! 😆

I am guessing it was the second half. "You pulled a three year old account of the mothballs to post something that stupid? Your mother should have gone through with her Planned Parenthood appointment."
