Perma banned because I wished c-ncer on a pro-Israel troll. Is that an earned ban you guys think?

[–] Lucky_777@lemmy.world 30 points 14 hours ago (7 children)

Hell, I said all Nazis can go die or kill themselves. Perm banned. Reason why I'm here. Fuck that place.

[–] ookiiBoy@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

... But all Nazis can go die or kill themselves.

[–] Lucky_777@lemmy.world 4 points 10 hours ago

I got banned when I saw someone say trans kids should be hunted in schools, and I told them I wish they'd get hit with a brick.

I got banned for making fun of Kemi Badenoch when she said autistic people are privileged. I said maybe she's jealous that there are people that know more about trains than her. That was apparently enough to warrant a permanent ban.

I had my 13 year old account banned on reddit and the 'final' statement was saying 'No, just the problems they deserve blame for' to a Zionist who accused all Lebanese people of blaming all of Lebanon's problems on Israel.

Just saying that apparently is a call to violence against Jews...

I'm glad that I don't use Reddit and have no intention on doing so. I remember there was a very talented artist who was wrongfully accused of using AI and banned on the art subreddit. That artist got banned even though receipts were shown to the mods proving the art was not AI, and I guess with this policy, I'd be at risk of being banned from Reddit altogether because I for sure would've upvoted the art if I did have a Reddit account, it was amazing.

Does that mean spez is getting banned for being a mod on r/jailbait?

[–] Clbull@lemmy.world 8 points 11 hours ago

Spez has gone so far beyond being a mere cuck. He's a goddamn cuckasauras.

[–] gutsnsuch@lemm.ee 6 points 11 hours ago

Oh no! Anyways…

I got shadowbanned after finally actively posting... On r/BuyFromEU... idk man

[–] x00z@lemmy.world 12 points 12 hours ago (9 children)

Shadowbanning in Europe is very hard to pull off without crossing DSA and GDPR rules, which require transparency and informing of the user. Specifically DSA Article 17.

Here's a Dutch case regarding it: https://dsa-observatory.eu/2024/08/06/the-dsas-first-shadow-banning-case/

I'm posting this because if you are European, you should be informed of any shadowban, which makes it a normal ban by definition. If you had to investigate and found out you are shadowbanned, your rights have been violated. I think the best way to get something going is by using a certified out-of-court dispute settlement body, although there's probably a lot of other ways. And if you don't want to return to Reddit anymore, it might be fun to throw some legal shit at their shit platform on your way out.

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

[–] jaemo@sh.itjust.works 20 points 14 hours ago (6 children)

Uh...the "badge of honor" would have been quitting back during api-gate and not looking back. Getting banned now just means one participated after that time, providing spez with traffic and value, and helped normalize the behaviour that is only just now a bridge too far.

Today, a ban is the "conciliatory prize of not thinking ahead".

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?

[–] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 13 points 14 hours ago

You mean if someone said something like, "Trump and Epstein raping a 13-year-old is a matter of court record."?

[–] Nemean_lion@lemmy.ca 13 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

I said we used to have a method of dealing with traitors. Got banned for it.

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

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 26 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 16 hours ago) (4 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

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!"
