I made fun of an automoderator’s banned word.
The word was “Cult”.

Mod message is Mexican slang for “Go fuck yourself elsewhere” or “Go fuck your mother”.

Libs/Feds mods in my reddit leftist subreddit? Color me surprised.

    Numerous MLs here, myself included, have reported being banned from SLS for wholly spurious reasons and being insulted when trying to appeal the ban. SLS is compromised.

    My “ban reason” was just as ridiculous as yours.

      I got banned because there was a post about pitbulls where I commented that the reason they’re dangerous dogs is because humans fucked with their genes to make them dangerous and that it’s ultimately not their fault that they snap or that they get treated like shit, and a mod accused me of “advocating eugenics” or “race science”.

      When I argued back that dog breeds are not analogous to human race, and that it’s the notion that dog breeds and human “races” are analogous that actually is racist, the mod doubled down on their bullshit.

    • If you try viewing subreddits or profiles through the open source libredd.it front-end, a lot of that information is actually viewable. Try adding /#moderated to a user profile or subreddit you’re curious about via libredd–it can be uhh, illuminating.

      Oh, and it can also reveal posts made by people with supermod privileges, who might be posting under another name attached to the same mod account. This information is hidden on Reddit.
