12 year old account got permabanned for telling a Nazi off. But even before this happened I’ve noticed how much reddit has dropped off the last few years compared to when I discovered it.

    I got permabanned just for participating in /r/enoughmuskspam. We figured out Musk frequented the sub, and as an active member who mocked him daily, I had a feeling it was coming. I’m fairly sure he flagged me and other users for permabans.

    Their excuse was that I said (((Soros))) to a Nazi MAGA claiming Soros was funding all the protests, which wasn’t at all true. Why is that a bannable offense? Never seen censorship like that on the net in my life

    My suspicion is that it’s happening a lot and that they want to turn Reddit red like they did with Twitter. Musk and Reddit’s CEO are pals.

      That was a honeypot to ban anyone critical of Musk, and corporations in general.

      I fell for it, too.

        You didn’t fall for it, you were shown what the site really is and made a good switch to a better website.

      musk monitors reddit , since hes on xitter all the time. he has the time, because hes high on cocaine or adderall to give him that energy.
