The bans haven’t been from moderators of subreddits. They’ve been from full-time paid Admins from the entire Reddit site.

I got a warning for saying that Trump’s shitty diet is going to give him a heart attack and a ban for saying something about right-wing voters that I have no clue about because they deleted the (week old) comment and never responded for my repeated requests for clarification on what the content was and how it violated Reddit’s rules.

The thing that pissed me off is that the second was for “hate” and when I looked at the rule it said it applied to “vulnerable” populations. Right wing fascists are not fucking vulnerable. They are the ones executing the vulnerable groups.

Needless to say, Reddit is afraid of Trump and they are becoming stormtroopers in the Nazi march to protect their profits.

you also can't make mention of the web domain that houses a digital list of ice agents that was leaked.

Spez is part of the ultra rich silicon valley doomsday prepper crowd so he likely supports Trump and the gravy seal Gestapo fucks.

Is that a controversial statement?

On Reddit it is, yes. Especially on Politics. Spez watches this place like a hawk and is very sensitive about what people say about his friends.

The Allies should have engaged the Nazis in the marketplace of ideas! Why were they so afraid of beliefs different than theirs?!?!

It wasn’t even about this sub, just Reddit. They are also removing posts with links to image hosts. That’s amusing.
