    I mean, you can’t advocate for people to kill themselves.

    It doesn’t matter if you say kys for world peace, even if it was true and someone was sacrificing themselves for the world.

    Just can’t say that.

    Usually you can use euphemisms though.

    But yeah Reddit is shit I got similarly banned, but for even milder language, when — I assume — Israeli’s mass flagged my comment, and I had had previous warnings over similar things.

    It doesn’t really even matter though if you use even mild language if the intent is there and some astroturfing group decides to mass report a comment.

    When it’s like dozens of reports on a single comment, the lazy fuckers over at Reddit simply don’t care and ban you.

        Well, have you given thought to how angry it makes you when moronic terfs oversimplify and exaggerate?

        Do you actually think someone should kill themselves. Answer like you would in real life, as if you then had to watch that person killing themselves.

        Anyone who’s an adult and even somewhat not-sociopathic should know that while it’s very attractive to say “yes I want these bad people to kill themselves”, it’s a slippery slope and deep down the answer is “no, not really really”. It’s pretty much the exact rhetoric that starts movements that end up in fascism or some other totalitarianism. “Those people need to go!”

    I got permabanned from Reddit for saying that I respect trans people (temp ban), and then agreeing with someone else that homophobia in the OW community was ridiculous, as the game is pro-queer (perm ban).

    Fuck Reddit.

    Also, the situation where you have multiple accounts (e.g. on your phone, on a work computer, on home computer), are permabanned from a sub for a stupid reason on one, and then post on that sub with another account six months later because you forget, and then get in trouble for it… it’s ridiculous. Just ban all the linked accounts so that the user can’t get in trouble for forgetting about a ban from months ago.
