So I was just on SLS yelling at some lib that was complaining that the sub is not targeted at libs, but was actually left on left infighting because we "didn't propose solutions and were aggressive toward pro Kamala posters" or whatever.

When it started getting circular I reported them for genocide apologism and they quit responding (I assume they caught a sub ban) and then like 2 minutes later I got a permanent site ban for "harassment or bullying" pointing at a week old top level comment I made on /r/bisexual on a deleted thread calling for people to vote Kamala to stop project 2025. The comment was "I will never vote for genocide and fuck anyone who will."

Now I can't talk about ttrpgs or other similar shit on reddit, but that is what I get for communist-posting and nerd-posting on the same profile.

    You absolutely can keep talking to people on there. Just make a new account. Don't tell me you actually give a fuck about that karma bullshit

      No, I didn't have much "karma" anyways because I mostly posted on relatively small subs and you get downvoted a lot on bigger subs for "actually the HK protesters are bad" "No, what's happening in Bolivia IS a coup" etc etc. It just seems like a lot of work, I mean I'd have to make a throwaway email, and I know for a fact I'd get sucked back into politics talk and rebanned anyways.

      Seems like a lot of work to raise my own blood pressure. I'm sure at some point someone on some hobby sub will post something I want to talk about and I'll change my mind though.

        When I still used reddit-logo I had some nerd stalking my account that reported me for inciting violence when I said when the revolution came everyone with a K-On pfp was getting the wall (they are almost invariably fascists and love to say the most racist shit you've ever heard in your life)

            It's a wholesome anime about high school girls starting a rock band that's pretty well regarded since it's the rare show that doesn't sexualize teenagers, 4chan latched onto it and like putting SS uniforms on the characters.

    I got banned after seeing an article on Reddit about a white cop who killed an innocent black woman and was found not guilty by a jury in a red state. I simply said that I could understand if one of the victim's family members tracked down the officer and killed him. Permanent ban.

    Am I crazy, or was my comment really that bad?

      Nah, not at all. It wasn't a threat, or incitement. It was just an observation. Reddit is a run by CIA affiliated white supremacists.
