I just got banned for 7 days from Reddit for "threatening violence" for saying the Trump administration deserves the death penalty (which is an actual thing that exists legally in the US) and that the GOP should be dissolved.
A few days ago, an AskReddit thread led me to a group where men were promoting rape and violence against women. Reddit did not ban that.
You tell me.
EDIT: Something funny from the message they sent me: "Reddit is a place for creating community and belonging, not for threatening violence against people or animals." I wish they'd clarify whether it was people or animals that I threatened. It continues "Any communities or people that threaten violence towards an individual, group, animals, or place will be banned." Not the one where a bunch of dudes were promoting rape, though.
Something similar happened to me like 2 - 3 days ago. I legit didn't use it for over 2 years, and then a couple of months ago someone hacked the account and made it a porn thing. I didn't want that associated to any email address that was mine, so I "re-claimed" the account, and removed all of the porn. I barely ever post on there, but I was drunk and said something along the lines of what you said in one of the leftish subreddits. I didn't get banned, but I got a warning. Fuck that. Warn my nuts.
Funny, I saw a post on Reddit just yesterday from someone who got porn-hacked. Hackers are hornier than they used to be
Me, I wasn't drunk. I was provoked. Pretty sure that legally I'm bulletproof given the circumstance (it was a reaction to far-right ragebait being on the White House website)
