In a post regarding climate change I called another user an “Ignorant Slut” like that line from the Office. Anyways got permanently banned site wide and I just can’t help but wonder if that was necessary.

It’s not like I say that all the time, it was a one off instance and they just remove me from their site. I don’t mind it so much since it’s just a Reddit Account but it is really annoying since I can’t help but feel the admins had it out for me as they banned my account unjustly before and then reinstated it. But this time the ignorant slut was all the reason they needed to remove me from their existence.

Anyways just wanted to rant to the void on how dumb Reddit can be sometimes.

    I was once suspended for making a dumb dick joke, something like “that guy must be hung” (it made sense in context, stupid sense, but sense nonetheless). This was reported as a threat of violence or whatever. I appealed, explaining that I wasn’t wishing anyone to be hanged, merely suggesting that they must have a large penis and got my account back.

    Meanwhile racist dogwhistles and rampant transphobia abound with little consequence.

      I swear they never look at context. I got permabanned for QUOTING something racist that someone else said. The person who said it was left alone.
