I am proudly permabanned from reddit for telling people to punch Nazis.
I was permabanned for telling mods they have tiny peen syndrome.
Punching nazis isnt mindless violence. Its violence against the mindless
That was my first temp ban, years ago. I was shocked. You can’t be pro-Nazi punching?
They permabanned my main and unrelated business account for saying I didn’t care that Trump said Liz Cheney should be shot. Apparently not caring is also “promoting violence.”
Cheney is a warmonger who has called for the killing of millions in unjust wars. I don’t care if someone threatens her.
Oh yea I was banned years ago for not caring when Herman Cain died. Previously they would do it temporarily (like when he died they went on a spree) but now it’s just permanent bannings for wrong think over there.
I got a 3 day ban for agreeing that putin should die (after Selenskyj said it would soon be so) and the joking wish that his natural death also happens to his chosen successors.
Now im here.
Banned from politics after someone said there was going to be violence. I said “the tree of liberty and all that, right?”. Facism takes root when people self censor and over compensate.
Hey that literally just happened to me too.
Given that Xitter is going down the proverbial toilet, I am surprised Reddt didn’t see the risks in turning their platform into a right-wing cesspool.
This is u/spez we’re talking about here c’mon.
Spaz IS a right wing cesspool. So it is to be expected
Not surprising seeing as theyve also been unjustly banning people again. Just got booted off the site today and was given zero explanation besides I “incited violence.” The link to the supposed “violation” didnt work then when I asked in my appeal they wouldnt tell me anything. Im left to assume its because my politics didnt agree with the current regime.
Musk has been pressuring them to go after critics of him, and the administration, and Reddit is capitulating. Cowards.
I suspect it is because they want to buy TikTok, and they know HitlerPig will award it based on appeasement and the bribe.
It’ll be funny to watch them start lifting those bans when they realize bending the knee to fascists isn’t gonna save the site. Oh well. They’ve shown their true colors as a platform.
I’ve wondered if that will happen once they realize they’ve chased off so many core members.
I’m not sure I’d return. I like the higher volume of posts on Reddit, especially in niche subs, but i don’t miss the bots, trolls, puns, novelty accounts, Russian karma farmers, etc.
I was sign up number 3 the day they added accounts. I made I think one of the 1st hundred comments ever. I’ll never go back for any reason. The place is a joke, and what people keep going back for are the memories of what it was, not what it is.
I don’t think i would. There would have to be mass firings and a complete restructuring of the company for me to consider that.
They have a price that’s still hundreds of times above their earnings. The stock is comically overvalued. It isn’t crashing and it has nothing to do with Luigi posting. Air is just coming out of an equities market that’s been hyper-inflated since before COVID.
I fear that a manufactured depression is forming that will completely wipe out the remnants of the middle class (workers who own assets).
Seems to be the intent
I mean things could not matter potentially but I left Reddit permanently and came here cause of this.
Echoing this.
Last week, I got a 3 day ban from Reddit. The next day it turned into a permanent ban. Reddit claimed that it was due to a comment made about a video, showing a coach pull the ponytail of one of the girls on his team. While I don’t recall what my comment was, as the father of a HS girl who plays sports, it bothered me, but as a man in his 50s, who played football in the 1980s, who periodically got his ass kicked by his coach, when he screwed up, it didn’t bother me enough to say anything terrible. Of course, they deleted the post, and refused to elaborate. I’ve been supportive of Luigi, and have heard that Reddit was coming after Luigi supporters, so I thought that could be the real reason. Who really knows?
I had a 12 year account and almost a million karma, and was permabanned after the inauguration for a comment i had made many times. I came to Lemmy and found i was part of a bloodbath.
I’ve seen many people with bans on 10+ year accounts. We’re the people who built Reddit. Somehow we managed to make thousands of posts for all those years without bans, and suddenly all of us posted lifetime-bannable posts in the same month?
I was coming up on 4 years. I haven’t brought myself to deleting the app though, as there are some good subs there. I’ve been here for less than 1 full day so far, so I have a lot of exploring to do.
Crazy I know the exact video you are talking about. Wild that posting on that, of all things, got you banned.
My teen daughters were both surprised, when I told them of my ban - like I’m some sort of subversive rebel they didn’t know existed. They both laughed when I told them what Reddit said was the reason, and were both familiar with the video, from other sources. Life goes on. Less time on a screen can’t do any harm.
I gave up the game there after 12 years… of mostly lurking though.
I’m just trying to get permabanned for mentioning Lemmy and sharing my views on billionaires at this point
Same bro I got a three day ban yesterday.
They gave me one too, but I extended it to perma just to make sure I don’t feel tempted to go back.
Same lol. I just had to ban evade and say that last patriot comment about amplifying the idiots and supressing the dissenters is not how we should run a democracy. Boom permaban. Do not question reddit moderation policy. It’s worse than luigi.
As you should
Yeah, they gave me a three day ban a few days ago, so I joined here. I have no plans on going back ever. I uninstalled the reddit app. I had been on that site to some degree for more than half my life.
Federate. Anonymize. Consensus based moderation. Without that we succumb to tyranny.
The problem with consensus is you can fake it pretty easily with a bunch of bots.
You guys are still using reddit?
Lots of local discussion groups that simply don’t exist on lemmy. I’ve tried getting them to move too.
No good drug sub here either
Trying to get drug ppl to change habits, am I right? 😏😂
Be the change you want to see in the world
So much of it comes down to this. Many Lemmy users are smart people who can identify what’s wrong in the world, but discerning what you can impact personally vs what need to change is not the same thing.
I’ll repeat what you said: “Be the change you want to see in the world.”
1Y +134%
I was looking at that and the 5 year too but its got a weird huge spike frol the election peaking in early february and since that peak it’s lost almost all of the value attained and its trending down. Probably still too early to tell but if it keeps going the way it is, within a month it will be losing value on the 1y. might atill have some percent on the 5y thoigh

Check back in a month.
Wonder if anonymous will go after Reddit now
