    I got permabanned from reddit for posting the question “what would Eisenhower do if he was present with a machine gun?” underneath a picture of a Nazi march in Wisconsin. Apparently, that is inciting violence in reddit view. Gotta keep those Nazis safe.

      I got banned for replying to a sexist bigot who was saying gendered slurs and I quoted him and got banned also for using the quote feature to keep him from editing his comment. Mods banned me, didn’t listen to appeals, then it became an admin issue and the admins chased me around banning my accounts for ban evasion and then eventually hit me with an IP ban and ignored all appeals, because “the original comments have been deleted.” So if I want to talk shit to nazis there now I have to use a VPN.

      A 12-year-old account perma’d because I called out someone for using the B-word in a relationship sub.

      I am just so thrilled that our largest communication platform is being so diligently managed with such great common sense and healthy community standards. I bet the AI is going to make it even soooo much better.

      Yeah, the right is the most delicate of snowflakes. They’ll ban you for asking a question, they’ll plug their ears and yell shit about emails if you say something that hits home and they don’t have an answer.

      I got banned for implying that the Israeli palatine conflict is more complicated then an episode of G I joe. And I have said some crazy fucked up shit that flew by the radar.
