I’m not banned, just don’t want to be there due to Spez’s bullshit

I said Palestinians should be able to defend themselves in world news and they kicked me right out, then afterwards every time I went into trash talk threads on the Hockey subreddit admins would give me 3day bans for bullying, or one time I got banned for 'encouraging violence' for talking about a fight that happened in a hockey game. I asked the admin if that was encouraging violence how come you allow MMA subreddits. No response.

I was banded from /r/democrats because I said that Bernie would have beaten Trump

Called out on a guy that was faking being Ukrainian for getting a free card making xenofóbic comments and denying the Armenian genocide (he was indeed from Turkey). I presented prove and evidences that he changed his flair from Turkish to Ukrainian and stated saying in every post that he was Ukrainian just after the Russian invasion, and that he was doing it to get more attention from people while he went full on denying any crime done in the present or the past by Turkey/Ottomans.

Somehow I ended up banned and he did not. r/Europe in a nutshell. I never step a foot in that subreddit after that.

I reported a Fox News post that claimed climate change has no effect on the rise in wildfires. First time ever reporting anything there, and maybe reported a handful of racist comments before that.

Not even an hour later I got the message that I had been permanently banned! Appealed it, they said they’d reviewed the ban and it stands. Fucking laughable!!

I got banned once because I used to make a new account every few months and accidently commented in a subreddit I've been blocked before. This means reddit tracks your different accounts by email or ip address. I bet the place is evil internally.

I got banned from r/food because i commented badly on someones meal.

I got banned from a bunch of right wing subreddits (r/conservative, r/askthedonald etc.) because I either posted articles disproving whatever garbage the post was spewing, or called people idiots because: they would make up a bunch of claims, they didn’t post any sources, and a quick google search proved them wrong.

I got banned from a bunch of left wing subreddit (r/againsthatesubreddits etc) for posting in and calling right wing subreddit people stupid and stating that pitbulls are far more dangerous than the average dog type, with links.

I went to several pro-DWAC (Truth Social) investment subreddits and explained how margin accounts are "the dirty trick wall street doesn't want you to learn!" and gave them instructions on how to request it.

I made a semi-meme about moving to Lemmy on formuladank. Banned 3 minutes later, no reason given, they didn't even remove the post and the mod was a twat about it (of course).

I made a joke about punching Nazis, on a post about punching Nazis. It was later reversed. That was like, a month before this whole migration thing so it's kind of funny to me.

I can't remember exactly what the topic was, but it had something to do with people using racial slurs. Someone made a comment about South Park, so I commented with the famous South Park episode where Stan goes on Wheel of Fortune and mistakenly thought that the word was a racial slur, rather than naggers. I was given a 7 day suspension, then ~4 days later, they told me I was permabanned from Reddit on all of my accounts. I tried to appeal it by saying that I was referencing the South Park episode that was completely relevant to the topic and that the topic is so valid, that South Park even did an episode on it. The appeal was denied. I highly doubt they banned me for the post. Rather, I had upset someone that was out to get me since I had been banned from another subreddit for not violating the rules at all, but I didn't fight it. Maybe there was a mod that was in charge of both subs.

Apparently, Reddit uses some sort of browser tracking method, because even if I used a VPN, they would know it was me. I learned that I could possibly use a VPN and Brave browser to get passed the permaban, but it meant that I couldn't use RIF anymore, and I was getting sick of Reddit anyway. Reddit had started getting too antagonistic for my taste. It seemed like users were just taking things personal rather than have rational discussions (made up example below) Luckily, the API thing happened, and people started migrating to Lemmy shortly after.

user 1:

This is a pretty ELI5 response, so there's stuff missing, but the general gist is that water expands when it gets near freezing temperatures and below.

user 2:

Water is actually at its densest at 4° C. Below that, it starts expanding because of the shape of the H~2~0 molecules.

user 1:

Yeah, I know that. I'm actually a chemical engineer. The reason I didn't explain that part was because I was trying to keep it ELI5. This sub is for simple explanations, and I didn't want to confused it. And actually, you are wrong. It isn't the shape of the molecule alone. We need to take into account the polarity of the water molecule. Perhaps, you should consider that you don't know everything.

I reposted a NSFW video from 1 year ago and got permabanned

Messaged a /r/conservative mod and told him he was stupid. Permaban with a shadow ban on new accounts. Spez really shined that shithole.

I quoted a meme on a topically relevant post.

And that’s how I found out that Reddit admins had started banning on basically any use of the word “retard” (a word that I genuinely do avoid using pretty much always, and only included in the comment because it’s literally the punchline of the fucking meme).

I’ve never been banned by Reddit but I have been banned from r/stepparenting. Can as a response to a response I had about age differences. I had lots of life experience, I wasn’t shaming anyone, and I thought I was being pretty vulnerable about myself as a human being.

I’m not even a step parent any more: I don’t even remember if they were talking about kids at all. It was just the fact I was pasting AT ALL in an entirely separate sub.

But I got banned and felt especially hurt to get a completely unrelated ban. The fact that it came along the same time as the API changes (last month), just couldn’t bother.

Never banned. Left because I disliked the moderation, the community at large, and the content that rose to the top of their algos.

I never had an account that was properly banned, but I got banned from a sub for police. After Amir Locke was murdered by police, I was in the sub looking through some posts. On a meme calling the outrage over his murder overblown, I told a verified LEO that he was not the judge. Permaban within 5 minutes

I didn't get banned site wide but on a few of the bigger German subreddits.

I wrote "Punch Nazis - always and everywhere" which is inciting or glorifying violence against a group of people apparently. I appealed it and asked the mod what they thought of the Allies and what they did and wether we should maybe glorify that. They said something about political discourse and that I'm not making any sense after which I told them they would've stood on the beaches of Normandy asking everyone to calmly discuss their differences on the mArKeTpLaCe oF iDeAs.

And that turned my four week ban into a permaban

I left because they killed the app I accessed Reddit with, but that enlightened centrist bullshit permeates Reddit like the plague and definitely made my decision easier.

I wrote "My name is Junie B. Jones. The B stands for Bitch" and the sub banned me.
