      I got banned from reddit because users were cheering the harming of trans kids, and I told said users I hoped they’d get hit with a brick.

      Reddit is a right-wing shithole with a neo-liberal facade.

        You were banned for inciting violence. Which is the reason for every ban I ever got:

        • “can’t wait for the first influencer to die in one of these” (1man quadcopter)
        • facetiously telling someone to place a stick through their own spokes while riding their bike in response to a very dumb question.
        • saying everyone linked in the Epstein files should get the rope.

        I didn’t notice a political correlation.

        Oh I’m pretty sure the admins have banned me site-wide since I called them out for doxing a trans coworker to the mods of a far-right UK subreddit, I have a laundry list of ridiculous bans including joking about a dog shooting another dog in the same post as Garry Tan’s name, I’m not defending Reddit.

        Its just that last time I went to r/bannedFromReddit it was AA cesspit.

        Oh I agree with that, just when I got banned a while ago the bannedFromReddit sub was even further right than mainstream reddit

      I got several ridiculous bans from reddit.

      One was for saying that Hans Kristian Graebner (the Neo-Nazi known as Stonetoss who was had his IRL name leaked online) deserves to get the Brock/Allen Turner treatment (having his RL name put on blast everywhere).

      One was for “inciting violence” - I was joking about mosquitoes getting cancer under a picture of a mosquito perched on a cigarette

      One was for pasting the list of DOGE staff (it’s a government job so it is public record) because Elon whined to his buddy Spez

      The final permanent ban was for saying that the mods of r/cybertruck are losers.

        Same here. All mine were ridiculous in a similar vein.

        The permaban was for agreeing with a Muslim that the bloke who disarmed that Bondi shooter and didn’t shoot him was because he’s a peaceful, forgiving man who couldn’t do it which was in fact the truth.

        I don’t think I was alone, I think a few got banned at the same time. I was already here before then because I could see the writing on the wall.

          i think the closest mine was to a real “advocation of violence” was when i posted my daydream about krasnov dying like elvis, only it happening on camera so it’s more ignominious. and a whole lot of weegees and luigi twerking gifs because if you are not rebelling against the absurdities and injustices of existence in even the teensiest ways and making yourself laugh, what are you doing?

          i’ve posted here about the Robert-François Damiens because i pushed the boundary that far (and no further) and got away with it.

      I was banned for pointing out a mods hypocrisy of removing some ads while keeping others even when the sub specifically had a rule for no ads. Reddit admins called it harassment when I only sent one message to the mod and reported their reply for breaking the TOS/Moderator Code of Conduct.

      My post on that sub didn’t appear to have trolls or right wing losers in the replies.
