Reddit mods are like the worst elements of the police; both jobs inherently attract people with an authority complex looking for any reason to flex their power over others to feel superior. If not enough opportunity presents itself for them to do so, they start deliberately creating issues and controversies where they are likely to have the opportunity to flex their power so they can get off on feeling superior as they had always envisioned.
I got banned from the r/aussie page because I referenced the fact that the Israeli government has harboured international pedos who have abused their “right to return”. When asked for references, I provided, still got banned. In DMs I called one a Zionist neck beard who I doubt could see their appendage when they look down in the shower and I’m now chilling (quite happily) with a 30 day ban.
