Yeah, got banned on one of my accounts for supporting the killing of a nazi. Some people were pointing out someone having kids and I pretty much said so fucking what? Nazis can have kids, they still need to die.

News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

This caused me to look it up the death of Mussolini and, holy shit, old American newsreels didn't fuck around.
Around here, you can say what you really meant quite outright and most instances won't blink (except, ironically, the one you and I are on got a little heat for this exact thing, lol, they want to be most like Reddit).
Obligatory Saint Luigi blessing for the banned:
remember kids:
A place in heaven is reserved for those who speak truth to power
It's not illegal if you do it to save your country
You dropped your /s king...
For those of you asking wtf, this is a Donald Trump quote.
I'm with you, but as Noam Chomsky said, power already knows the truth. They are busy hiding it. Better speak the truth about power.
It's not that power doesn't know the truth - it's that speaking it to them is a direct confrontation.
And without confrontation, no system will allow fundamental change.
The courage and sacrifice of the act of speaking truth TO power are what embolden others to do the same. It also forces the power in question to respond to the truth teller, and their response, no matter what it is, weakens their hold.
For instance, attempting to paint the truth teller as a liar (FAKE NEWS) falters in the face of fact checkers. This erodes the public trust for the power in question.
Censoring the truth teller can suppress the story only partially, and legitimizes their cause to the public once it gets out.
Arresting the truth teller creates a public spectacle which elevates the truth teller to the status of celebrity and almost certainly ensures their message gets out.
Killing the truth teller creates a martyr.
Blessed be our saint Luigi!
Truly you're doing the gods' work
I was banned by a bot for threatening violence… against myself. I merely said “it’s comforting to me that if things ever get bad enough I can just blow my brains out.” Now a moderator did unban me when I appealed, but it’s like you say… insulting that bots are banning without human review in the first place.
Anyways, I decided to leave Reddit for good this time and left on a final post saying I hope He Who Shall Not Be Named inspires more bloodshed of terrible people ruining the world to line their own pockets. That’ll probably get the account permabanned. Good riddance.
Tbh that’s what’s keeping me from freaking out.
FFS that's ridiculous. If you'd said that was all you were banned for a few months ago I'd have thought you were lying. But that ban is standard now.
To me your comment was clearly a joke. There's nothing serious about it, you're not rallying others, there's no vitriol or aggression. Warn or shadow ban, fine. Perma ban is excessive.
Also keep in mind that the chuds have been making a concerted push to go around Reddit and report every anti-fascist post and comment they can find. Between that and the recent Reddit crackdown against anything Luigi related, the place is quickly turning into StormFront 2.0.
No, not our Steve Huffman. He'd never do anything unethical, much less authoritarian.
[squealing intensifies]
- A human was involved in the process at some point
- Your comment was "threatening violence or physical harm"
- In my opinion there's nothing wrong with threatening Nazis with "violence or physical harm" - they're Nazis, their entire schtick is genocide, how do people think that they're supposed to be dealt with, tea and cakes? Chamberlain tried that, didn't work. What did work was killing a whole bunch of them. For my entire childhood and most of my adult life people were lauded for the effort of killing Nazis or dying in the attempt.
Cake or death!?
The cake is a lie.
In PI there is truth.

Mussolini at the end of his career
Hehe. Why is that phrasing so funny?
What about Hitler losing his job?
I don't know who was worse, Hitler or the guy that fired him.
This is an automoderator do not reply. You are permanently banned for harassment. This was done without the support of humans. Beep boop bye
Sorry I was being woke. Thank you very much for defending freedom of speech by DELETED
While I agree with you in general, let's not pretend the implication isn't obvious. Reddit just doesn't like that implication, and that's telling us a lot about Reddit.
You implied you should do it to all future "Hitlers". Who gets to decide who is Hitler? So they had to make an example out of you.
That's at least the logic I deduced.
Congratulations on your rejection by fascists!
It's kinda bittersweet. On one hand I won't abide fascists. On the other hand I've had that account since 2012.
I think everyone should spam reddit with these so called "violent" posts. So they have to ban all active accounts. Then they'll realise they're being ridiculous
They will realize nothing. They might capitulate if you manage to cost them money, though.
No users means no money surely?
Eventually, yeah, but they've been propped up by venture capital for a long time.
I mean, the rules say that encouraging violence is not accepted. Whether the violence is justified or not does not factor here, it still is encouraging violence so the ban is appropriate.
