Yeah I got signaled on reddit for saying something about Trump, Elon and Vance regarding to Ukraine. Nothing that hasn’t been said, but I said they can fuck off and stop propping Russian imperialism and kidnapping children while commiting warcrimes. Guess Reddit is against that as they removed my comment and gave me a warning.
First the removesort by controversial, and then you can’t even see controversial posts. Soon there will be no conflicting opinions, just a hive mind echo chamber.
Oh no! Anyways…
fuck reddit
you know it’s bad when ohanian and rose have gotten together to make a new digg
Spez has gone so far beyond being a mere cuck. He’s a goddamn cuckasauras.
Fuck it, I’m going to delete the account that I used to get over a previous permaban. I’ll read, but not post. No point in just posting anyway.
I’m glad that I don’t use Reddit and have no intention on doing so. I remember there was a very talented artist who was wrongfully accused of using AI and banned on the art subreddit. That artist got banned even though receipts were shown to the mods proving the art was not AI, and I guess with this policy, I’d be at risk of being banned from Reddit altogether because I for sure would’ve upvoted the art if I did have a Reddit account, it was amazing.
That’s the pedophile piss baby aka u/spez aka Steve Huffman, right? As in the guy that moderated a pedo sub?
What a greedy little pis baby pig boy.
Fuuuuuuuuuck spez
Perma banned because I wished c-ncer on a pro-Israel troll. Is that an earned ban you guys think?
I had my 13 year old account banned on reddit and the ‘final’ statement was saying ‘No, just the problems they deserve blame for’ to a Zionist who accused all Lebanese people of blaming all of Lebanon’s problems on Israel.
Just saying that apparently is a call to violence against Jews…
I got banned when I saw someone say trans kids should be hunted in schools, and I told them I wish they’d get hit with a brick.
I got banned for making fun of Kemi Badenoch when she said autistic people are privileged. I said maybe she’s jealous that there are people that know more about trains than her. That was apparently enough to warrant a permanent ban.
Thats be wise you where too much of a pacifist in your response.
Hell, I said all Nazis can go die or kill themselves. Perm banned. Reason why I’m here. Fuck that place.
Yup. I said things about Elon and Trump and how they are nazis supporting nazis like Putin commiting war crimes and I got a warning. Reddit can get lost.
Samesies. All I said was Nazis should get punched. This is a much better place all around, so fuck spez
I had an old account banned site wide for asking why there was an obvious gay guy on love island. Wasn’t even a malicious post I was genuinely curious how he faked his way on there.
Recently I got a temp ban for mentioning chatgpt on the books sub, someone was asking about a large selection of books and which were worth reading. I told him to get chatgpt to sort the list out by most popular. Apparantly even mentioning an llm exists there is a ban.
Kinda get the second one as authors all think chatgpt stealing from them or something but yeah I was talking about sorting a large list
Jesus… ITT I learned mods on Reddit are fucking snowflakes.
Why the hell would you go on a book community, open a discussion post that is clearly asking for personal opinions and go “I dunno lol go ask chatgpt”. I would’ve banned you too tbqh.
Well how else are you going to sort a list of about 30 books to decide which are worth time or not. The guy had bought an anthology of every Alien/Aliens novel and was complaining a lot of the books in it were really bad and wanted help knowing which ones are actually worth reading.
I just reply to things that show up my feed honestly and pretty randomly in fact that’s why I’ve posted here as well.
By TALKING TO PEOPLE
Not gonna lose a lot of sleep over a hateful asshole getting banned from a website.
All hateful assholes believe their brand of hate is justified, just as you do.
Zionists deserve all the vitriol they get.
Does that mean spez is getting banned for being a mod on r/jailbait?
Does saying “The only good fascist are very dead fascist” counts? What if I add that USA is a fascist country now? Will saying Donald is a pedophile still counts (I got banned for it already lol)? What about saying my favorite sport is nazi punching? And if I add that there’s no such thing as “roman salute”?
Is Reddit about to drop a new t-shirt line “Protect fascist’s feeling” or something?
I said we used to have a method of dealing with traitors. Got banned for it.
Fucking done with reddits shit.
Same, in January, I said something to the line of traitors used to be publicly hanged, now they’re elected and got banned for it. That was the last straw, came here right away and was happy to find the place striving compared to last time I tried it.
You mean if someone said something like, “Trump and Epstein raping a 13-year-old is a matter of court record.”?
Yes, this is the exact mentality.
I got banned yesterday for basic “Eat the Rich” quotes with the occasional Luigi or Guillotine animated gif thrown in here or there.
Reddit is cracking down on anticapitalists for sure.
Reddit is a piece of shit.
At this point, getting banned at reddit is a badge of honor.
Uh…the “badge of honor” would have been quitting back during api-gate and not looking back. Getting banned now just means one participated after that time, providing spez with traffic and value, and helped normalize the behaviour that is only just now a bridge too far.
Today, a ban is the “conciliatory prize of not thinking ahead”.
3rd party apps closing down I can see from a business point. Makes good business sense. Keep everyone on your shitty app and monetize it. I wasn’t for it but understood the greedy fucks behind it.
Now it’s just different. Banned for going against Nazis, just means they are in bed with Nazis. That’s the last straw.

Not understanding how greed and control are different manifestations of fascism is still on you. Corporations always align with fascists because a corporation is essentially a small kingdom where a handful of Lords make all the decisions for the peasants (workers/consumers).
Plenty of us saw where this was headed because of the API drama.
Corporations always align with fascists
Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power.

Fascism is always the best business decision. This is the inevitable result of capitalism. The institutions on a good decade are strong and resilient. Oligarchy, yes, but still a more or less free society.
Eventually though, there will be a series of crisis in succession that causes the establishment to weaken just enough for a strongman to slip in and take the reigns. In the 20th century it was the fallout from WW1 and the Great Depression. In our time it was COVID and the Ukraine + Israeli wars (and to some extent, 2008 housing crisis)
One key part of fascism is that it is almost paradoxical
a) A populist-driven ideology, which means it appeals to the lowest common denominator
b) An elitist-driven ideology, which means it idolizes and puts value in the elites of a society
What ends up happening is the state picks and chooses elite groups of people who end up running the show. So for example, if you are Zuckerberg or Musk or Bezos… you know that if you play nice with Trump that he will reward you and you will have certain advantages by having a friend in an authoritarian government. You also know that if you don’t play nice with Trump, he will try and hurt you using both legal and illegal mechanisms.
Therefore, the best investment you could make is aligning yourself with the fascist state.
This was always going to happen. Sort of like how humans eventually will catch a cold or develop cancer. The immune system on a good day is strong enough to repel these types of problems. But eventually, you will be under some stress for one reason or another and your immune system is not enough to stop the inevitable cold or what have you.
reddit permabans you for vague interpretations of things they consider “threatening”
its already a thought crime zone.
You gotta say “we will vote to have the state do this” before your threats. It’s like sudo for threats.
Lol, how is it even possible to upvote banned content? I mean, is it not deleted if banned?
It means accounts that consistently upvote posts that end up being banned.
The naive take is that this will remove bot/brigade swarms that are collaboratively boosting content that breaks site wide rules. You can derive ulterior motives from this if you want but I’m pretty sure that’s the basic premise.
I have no doubt this will be leveraged by the far-right to sow more discord. They already have a history of raiding subreddits with false flag attacks to get them sanctioned until it escalates into full blown subreddit ban. This is all but formalizing the mechanism.
I think the real implication of the system is that Reddit will also start banning you for down-voting posts too.
Banned after you upvote it
See something that’s pro-Luigi? That’s banned content
Pro-lemmy? That’s banned content
Upvoted a post about hypothetically killing a Republican? That’s banned content
Etc
This type of behavior is never tolerate on Reddit. You disagree with a Redditor, straight to ban. No trial, no nothing. There’s no journalists. We’ll have a special subreddit for journallists. Under represent a Republican, believe it or not ban. Over represent a Democrat, also ban. Reddit has the best users on the internet.
They probably did this specifically because people were upvoting our favorite plumber.
I got banned on Reddit, not by moderators of the sub, but by site admins for saying I hold similar values about CEOs like Luigid did.
