Speedrunning a permaban on my 15 year old account. How many days do you think it will take?

    I deleted my 11 year old Reddit account a couple days ago after being banned for quoting The Sopranos. On r/movies. As a response to another Sopranos quote.

    For most of those 11 years I had no problems then just in the last month I was banned sitewide twice (for threatening behavior, I was venting about fascists and used violent rhetoric I guess, mind you this was on a repost of that famous video of a Nazi getting punched), given this same warning you got about upvoting things they didn’t like, permabanned from r/movies (again for the same quote), I just reached my limit. Reddit was great for me for a long time but I am better off without it. I was on it too much anyways!

      Only comedy revolving around punching down is legal. Joke around about punching up… that’s illegal now.

    One of my buddies was recently complaining about “free speech” on Reddit.

    Told him it’s a company and not the government, so free speech doesn’t count there. He hated that.

    Told him if he didn’t like it to use Bluesky…he’s a staunch conservative…lol

    HELL YES COMRADE, FIGHT THE POWER

    fr though, this is such a badass way to get banned. don’t even reply to them - just keep doing the thing, post, and watch as every pathetic attempt at intimidation gets hundreds of defiant upvotes here.

      I don’t know if you saw this article, but it’s a fascinating and infuriating read, it’s about all of the Luigi censorship and the upvote policing. It’s scary as hell. Check it out

        It talks about terrorist propaganda. I know a little bit about extremist groups use of social media… the tldr is social media is riddled with it. If they’re saying that’s the motivation then they are using that as an excuse. It’s ALWAYS been on reddit p, it’s nothing but a cover story.

      That’s why I finally pulled the plug on my 14 year old account. That Orwellian bullshit is a deal breaker.

        My 12 year old account got permanently suspended after an alt got a ban from r/entertainment for disagreeing with someone. Neither of us warranted a ban. Since I couldn’t block the sub from the news feed I accidentally commented again in the sub with my banned account not realizing the sub I was in. Then I commented with my main and got permanently banned. I appealed but didn’t get a response. This all happened over the course of a month or so and left an awful taste in my mouth.

            Haha samesies with my 12 year old account. I kept an alt for like 3 months before reddit just randomly banned it. Tried to create one more account and it got banned that day. Looked up Reddit alternatives and found this place :)

        it was ongoing since DEC, they just ramping up the ban filters each month. Luigi keep reappearing on reddit in JAN so they quickly quashed it, and then again on feb. next thing you know they will start banning based on “referral or implying violence”(ive been banned for that in the past")

      I believe it. I got warned and had my comment deleted for “glorifying violence”

      I was supporting Canadian boycotts of American goods.

      Let that sink in - I was reprimanded for glorifying violence because I supported economic protests.

      What is an economic protest if not literally the primary, go-to alternative to violent protest?

    They couldn’t make everyone hate him, so now they’re trying to make everyone forget about him.

    “While you didn’t post the rule-breaking content, reading content that breaks the rules is also considered a violation.”

    “While you didn’t post the rule-breaking content, thinking about breaking the law is also considered a violation.”

    “While you didn’t post the rule-breaking content, protesting human rights violations is also considered a violation.”

    “While you didn’t post the rule-breaking content, being an unapproved minority is also considered a violation.”

    “While you didn’t post the rule-breaking content, not drinking enough verification cans is also considered a violation.”

    They’re scared. Spez knows his neck is on the line in a more literal fashion than ever.

      While you didn’t post the rule-breaking content, not buying a Tesla is also considered a violation.

      Ahhhhhhhhh now I see what the enforcement angle is on orangeboi declaring that an “illegal boycott” (a term that makes roughly as much sense as “aerodynamic bedsheet”)

    Can you or somebody else with a Reddit account post a photo of Woody Guthrie to r/pics and/or some major history subreddit and title it “Woody Guthrie and his iconic guitar” but use the Reddit alien logo as a censor over the “This machine kills fascists” written on his guitar?

    Reddit has been hell for a long time. Posts advocating genocide of Arabs get upvoted regularly, and any pushback gets you banned. The fediverse is marginally better.

    Anyways welcome to the club. First time?
