They permanently banned my 9yo account with 2 million karma for using the "boxes of Liberty" metaphor in a highly up voted comment about Republicans taking away access to voting. They said it was a threat of violence. 🙄 Meanwhile fascists make literal death threats in conservative subs with no consequences.
The site has systematically been banning high volume contributors who aren't right wing enough for at least the last 3 months. They, like Twitter, are trying to suppress the voices of people who are against fascism. It is deliberate and planned.
Not to be conspiratorial, but this is an aspect I've pondered that hasn't gotten much discussion: given spez's fanboy emulation of Musk, we could see Reddit become a lot more right-wing as those voices are the ones allowed to continue, like-minded mods are put in place, etc...which means those folks gain yet another messaging platform. It's not great.
The principals of capitalism align with their interests and perhaps their swing that direction could be seem as a defense mechanism against their better nature and any sort of guilt associated with their, what i consider, morally corupt actions.
They will. These people are trying to break up our means of communications. That’s why it’s important we get the word out about alternatives.
In their defense at that time subs like FULLCOMMUNISM were also around posting edgy memes where it wasn't always clear, if they jokingly or actually defended Stalins and Maos genocides.
Heck until 2018 or so there were subs about darknet markets where people rated the drugs and services sold there.
They gave my twelve-year account a three week ban for reporting bots.
“Report abuse” for reporting comment stealing bots, as we were told to do! Insane… unless you want plenty of active bots.
I got the exact same treatment for "report abuse" for reporting a comment copying bot. Like, ok. If you want Reddit to be nothing but spam bots parroting each other, have at it
The admins have been favoring the fash since forever.
Reddit is on a good trajectory to become voat.
I was temp suspended for suggesting an “untrainable” pit bull be euthanized instead of re-homing (local city sub)
Reason: threatening violence
I also got the reddit admin “please dont kill yourself” pm at the same time, speaking of report abuse…
