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.

[–] underfreyja@lemmy.world 5 points 4 hours ago

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."?

[–] Wilco@lemm.ee 7 points 5 hours ago

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.

[–] Ceruleum@lemmy.wtf 23 points 6 hours ago (6 children)

At this point, getting banned at reddit is a badge of honor.

Lol, how is it even possible to upvote banned content? I mean, is it not deleted if banned?

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 25 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago) (3 children)

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

[–] Probius@sopuli.xyz 5 points 3 hours ago

They probably did this specifically because people were upvoting our favorite plumber.

[–] InputZero@lemmy.world 5 points 3 hours ago

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.

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.

Basically declaring that they don't allow free speech.

"Hey, you have been liking things we disagree with and we need an echo chamber here, align with us or fuck off. Sincerely, the money hungry bitches of the internet! Also heil daddy musk!"

[–] Geodad@lemm.ee 30 points 8 hours ago (5 children)

Of course they don’t. They banned me 3 years ago for saying that if you have the chance, you should always punch a Nazi.

I once got banned for "vote brigading" on Reddit because I upvoted a crosspost that was deleted later, so this comes as no surprise. They have been monitoring upvotes and downvotes since forever.

paywall it, have bot create content, ban all humans.

reddit is the internet of things.
