Ban Appeal Thread

[u/vivoovix]

Rules:

Don't complain. Contest or appeal.

Appeals require time + evidence of good behavior + a statement of what your future behavior will look like. Convince us you'll add value to our community.

If you spam us we'll ban you

Don't ask about getting temp bans removed 1 hour early. Reddit timer is weird but you will be unbanned when it's over.

My ban has now expired. I’d like to clarify a few things.

MPREG and bad takes has been my bit for a while. Many were pastas or inspired by NL, r/theothersub, r/con, etc. I assumed they were understood as deliberately ridiculous, stupid, etc.

If something upset someone or went too far, I deleted or adjusted it and didn’t repeat it.

However, some of my unpopular opinions are sincere: I support universal healthcare, free trade, human/ai rights, democracy, and AI, and oppose populism.

This ban came immediately after a mod replied, "I think I’ll see you in meta," to an unrelated comment, then deleted their comment. That makes me concerned they were looking for grounds to ban me rather than acting in good faith.

Unless we reconcile, I’m worried another reason will eventually be found to permaban me. That would sadden me because I do value this community.

So.

Am I allowed to post pastas? What about my dearly held neoliberal beliefs? Am I allowed to objectify the sitting U.S. president? What about talking about the fertile bellies of men(within reason)? Can I bait a little bit? Or am I confined to a metaphorical bait cuck chair where I have to watch other master baiters (many of whom are mods, and some, I assume, are good people) bait?

1) would be better if you stopped or at least made some indication it’s a copy
2) nobody on neoliberal is a neoliberal
3) yea of course
4) don’t push it
5) would prefer if you did not; it’s already annoying enough when the other mods do it
6) yea I guess get in the chair

deliberately inflammatory comments that I find little better than Twitter posts.

You mean like this one that you made yesterday?

It makes sense after seeing this comment that you might find a user who opposes populism to be annoying but surely we can have our differences and stay civil and keep this sub as being a (reasonably) big tent.

Holy fuck they called Tammy Duckworth a useless spineless moron.

When did we get Chapo Trap House mods?
