    I said something similar on r/politics on Reddit and they banned me for homophobia. I was like WTF?

        There really wasn’t. I said kids need sex education at a young age so they know what a ‘bad touch’ is and I was banned for homophobia out of the blue. And when I tried to get a clarification, they muted me.

        The context is that the mods of r/politics have long had a reputation for being inconsistent and erratic in various ways.

        Obviously I don’t actually know the full context, but it strikes me as utterly plausible given the likelihood of a report by someone who disagreed with them and a mod team prone to shooting from the hip
