Probably triggered some admin or some kind of wrongthink. Or maybe they did nothing. Reddit banned me for 3 days over some pretty tame trash talk about TSA agents because it was classist.Smiter said:

Omg, the website that bans all content related to the community in question has banned that very community! Next you'll tell me that Telegram and Discord peptide servers are getting banned.
I will never understand why these group owners don't use private platforms like Signal, or even Potato. Hell a matrix server would be fine too, and it would be a great filter to stop simpletons from getting in.
One of life's great mysteries.

It's not hard to get banned on reddit. It's like the The Ministry of Truth over there.

Ha! As someone who teaches 1984, and as someone who has been Zucked on FB many times, I appreciate the allusion.sheilarae74 said:It's not hard to get banned on reddit. It's like the The Ministry of Truth over there.

Sniff...sniff... were you adopted by any chance? I'm gonna ask my folks why they gave my sister up.sheilarae74 said:
Every single time I start teaching 1984 to a new group, I always begin by telling them that if I were to pick the one book that all of humanity should read, it would be 1984.sheilarae74 said:LOVE IT!!!
And the real kicker of it all:- I, myself, have never read the book.

To be fair, I didn't actually read it until COVID. I never really read any of the books I was supposed to in school.Smiter said:And the real kicker of it all:- I, myself, have never read the book.

I saw reddit mentioned here so I went over to check it out. I found the place to be inhabited by weirdos, morons and illiterates but maybe I was just on the wrong threads. Lots of misinformation.

Reddit overwhelmingly is a cesspool, but depending on the subreddit and topic not all bad. I got it bad for rescue dogs, so a couple of them are ok and I hang around a bit here and there.Rolltide61 said:

100% agree with this. This and Fahrenheit 451 apply to these times in ways that are very scary.

Really depends on subreddit culture, and a lot of mods are powertripping freaks. I am active in a few subreddits where the mods are actually professionals themselves, and they have been very polite, informative yet firm with their moderations. I am also in a shitposting sub where ironic ethnocentric and racist jokes fly left and right, and people sometimes get banned by reddit sitewide automods. I got permabanned twice...and though I will refrain from pointing at specific politics to avoid hitting some nerves here, you'd rather see me dead than snorting ivermectin.
Reddit is very, very American-centric save for specific country-subs, and even in those subs you will see audacious Americans who will say some dumb things like "as an American [insert unimportant opinion]".
The worst ones I see are crime podcasts, missingpeople, or truecrime subreddits. They attract all kinds of attention whores and "well meaning" busybodies and spread all kind of asinine craps and even harass family and friends of missing people just for information.
TLDR; if you know your community, you will find it very useful. Learn to avoid highly polarizing subreddits.

Reddit blows, and that's all I'll say.

I've been IP banned from reddit like 11 times. I stopped counting at 11. Their tech to track ban evasions is really good now, so it'll be a project to spoof user agent on a proxy and build up an account in good standing again. It's almost not even worth it with the state of the site now, it's just overrun by teenagers and normies.BNLFL said:
To an extent, but the sitewide filters will pick you out and silence you if you voice uncouth opinions too often. Not as bad as YouTube's algorithm for comments where every comment has to be positive, but close. I miss Reddit in the old days. After the official app dropped and started getting normies and kids on board, and then the 2016 election happened and the internet became more politicized and controlled, it just hasn't been the same since.lastresort said:

They never assigned this one at my school, but I read Catch 22 when I was fifteen, because I was working in an antique shop for a pervert in exchange for piano lessons, and it was rare for anyone to come in, so I read the books. I laughed myself half to death all throughout that book; thought it was the funniest thing I'd ever read. Had tears rolling down my face, just bray-laughing and bray-laughing. Then I picked it up again when I was thirty, and I could not for the life of me understand what was so goddamn funny about it. It didn't even make me chuckle. It's been a mystery to me forever since.
