Quit reddit 5 years ago. Had a 12 year old account then.
Thread asked for early examples of racism against a certain group, by my country. I dug up such examples and translated them into English. The examples included slurs. Got permabanned for using slurs, no appeal.
Apparently I should have included a racism trigger warning in a thread asking for examples of racism, although the mod admitted that that wouldn't have saved me either.
This is a site which was notorious for indulging in gore with videos of people being killed by the way. Bunch of weirdos.
That's not why I deleted my account though. The last straw was when CIA thinktanks made a hostile takeover of all Middle East and geopolitics subs, forcing a Washington agenda to manufactor consent for war. The Afghanistan, Iran and Iraq subs were riddled with ex-military Americans and the mods were literally paid thinktank gooners. They were quite open about it too.
Wow, my account was 12ish years old too when I was banned the first time. Then I was able to access Reddit again because my partner has an old 11 yo account lol and then they banned that too, even with my VPN and a new device it was accessed from. They are shit ass. Both times I didnt do anything against the guidelines. They just didnt like my educational shit going viral because Americans arent majority fascist alt-right extremists despite popular belief. Most genuinely want basic human rights, healthcare and affordability. Duh. These rich people will eventually collapse because they are choosing to make a fake world instead of learning how to survive within the real one.
