    Hello folks! Found out I was banned this morning and spent all day trying to figure out an alternative. All for liking a post that said Trump raped a girl. Oh well. He did rape a girl so wtf?

    I got a warning for upvoting too much violent content. I know it’s bullshit. I contributed regarding economics but nothing violent.

    Done with Reddit.

      Never got my wrist slapped. But enforcing votes is beyond the pale.

      Dipped my toes into lemmy during the last exodus (2023?) but I’m done posting to reddit forever now.

    Permabanned after nearly 12 years. Forgive me for hating Nazi’s. I’d made the statement fuck all Nazi’s but six several times but this time was this time I got automod flagged. They are pretty much flagging the word Nazi regardless of context or overall statements made. The same goes for the word Luigi. Also, Karma is basically useless considering downvoting too much can also lead to a ban. It is pretty ridiculous. I’d never been banned once for any reason except for the last 6 months where I’ve been sub banned or gotten 3-7 day bans several times for making points about the sorry state of affairs in America lately. Forgive me for not bowing to kiss the fascist MAGA ring. Reddit has really put profits over people this time with these stupid rules and no real care in reading appeals or looking at context during moderation. It is all for their bottom line and oligarch investors now.

      Interesting. My 10 year old account also got perma banned for telling someone defending the third Nazi salute to “go to hell”.

      Apparently I should have told them to “go fuck themselves”. But telling them to “go to hell” was inciting violence or whatever.

        Yeah, I’ve said fuck all Nazis but six or kill all Nazis but six a hundred times on there, but this time was a bridge too far apparently. I really don’t care if they think it is violent. They’ll get theirs eventually I guess if history is a cyclical as it seems. Just gonna keep on trucking and spreading the word when I can, but it sure as shit ain’t going to be on Reddit. I think I’m getting too old, grizzled, and cynical for any form of social media anymore anyways. It’s all just so… fake. Reddit was the last bastion for me. I probably won’t be that prolific on here, but we’ll see.

    It’s why I’m here. 12 year member, nearly a million in karma, perma-banned for repeating a statement I’d made many times in the past with no repercussions. The first time I repeated it after HitlerPig stole the election, I was fully banned.

    It’s happening because Ohanion wants to buy TikTok, and he knows HitlerPig will be personally making the decision, based on who smooched his ass the most, and who paid the biggest bribe. So as a show of good faith, he’s volunteering to make Reddit a member of the Conservative Propaganda Machine.

    I hope Reddit goes the way of Digg.

    today / last night he confidentley stated that the X cyberattack was “traced” to Ukraine.

    he’s just another head of the hydra, the hydra being the transnational crime syndicate that masquerades as the US, Russian, and other governments.

    I fixed all my reddit problems years ago with this simple trick:

    added

    127.0.0.1 *reddit*

    to my hosts file.

        Redirects queries for “reddit.com” in your url bar towards your own computer. And unless you literally are reddit, you won’t reply to yourself, the result being that you’ve blocked the website for yourself.

        EDIT: I prefer to use 0.0.0.0 instead, so I’ll continue to ignore myself even if I do become Reddit in the future. Gotta be cautious.

        It’s a DNS file specifically for your computer. It just returns 127.0.0.1 as the IP address of Reddit, instead of it’s real IP

    Reddit full bore banned me for saying “I should have a legal right to punch nazis” and declined my appeal.

    Reddit is unironically nazi aligned and that’s not a joke it’s terrifying.

      (I got a warning for pretty much the same reason and decided not to hang around until I got a full ban.)

      Most people agree punching nazis is fine, very few people agree on who is and isn’t a nazi.

      It is precisely because useful clueless idiots are constantly being classified as nazis that no one is taking accusations of actual nazis seriously. Within society the meaning of the word has degraded to “mean people I don’t like”.

        I’ve been hearing this for years, and yet, literal neo-nazis are running the us government now. But go ahead and keep using the anti-woke rhetoric lol.

        Nazis thrive on diluting language—twisting words like “freedom” and “patriotism” to serve their agenda. Ironically, the same thing happens when “Nazi” gets thrown around carelessly. Mislabeling people weakens the term, but so does refusing to acknowledge real extremists. Precision matters—both in calling out threats and in resisting linguistic manipulation.

        what a cop out. there’s no functional difference between an idiot that works to advance nazi ideologies and the same but they have a swastika tattoo on their neck. to resist fascism means to confront ALL fascists. it’s not about disagreement or people you dont like, most people are using ur-fascism as their default definition and umberto eco has a fucking 14 point checklist we’re using. to act like it’s so arbitrary is completely out of touch.

          Useful idiots are working against their own interests, while hard, it is possible to reason with them. A self-conscious nazi is a nazi through and through.

      I haven’t been full banned yet but have grown tired of the amazing levels of stupidity. I caught a temp ban for incivility for writing “Your mother should have gone through with her Planned Parenthood appointment.”

    I’ve had a few of my “check out lemmy.ca” posts deleted there and frankly I don’t see how it breaks reddit TOS. They’re just bitter.

    Should there be an image or a link to one? I’m wondering if there’s some kind of mbin compatibility issues with some posts (or some other shenanigans). Nothing jumps out in browser dev tools, but I’ve seen a lot of posts that are nothing but a non-clickable title for me. Thanks!
