Hey Reddit, how's it going? Reddit:
Lol nothing says we are afraid of the working class like banning subreddits on suppressed news they don’t want us to see. I came here bc I got a warning on my account for liking a comment that said “Luigi”. My alt account got banned for sharing the DOGE email list that is public info. Fuck Reddit. I’m done.
You're viewing a single thread.
Yep, I got a frikking lifetime IP ban a few months back for saying "Fuck Elon Musk all the way to hell" in r/politics - apparently some fanboy decided that was "inciting violence". Fuck Reddit, happy to be part of Lemmy.
The real reason you got reported is they don't want anyone other than shills in that subreddit
right wing shills have taken over the sub, how can you tell, they allow all the left wing comments to be astroturfed by right wingers, and then ban you if you try to respond with what everyone else is saying on the same thread. also evidence that mods are right wingers that pretend to be both sides.
Abso-fucking-lutely.
I got an IP ban for sharing the list of DOGE employees. 11 minutes after my 10 year cake day. I continue to see people share the list of names. That's what led me here.
Aren't their names a matter of public record anyway?? Ridiculous - and for my part, I've seen people post a lot worse things than "Fuck Elon Musk all the way to hell" and somehow they're not banned.
musk complained about whitepeopletwitter and got it banned temporarily, reddit just ran with it.
Yeah. I don't see how it's doxxing when it's public record
I lost my account of 12 years when I quoted some random misogynist for calling a woman a slur, the mod or automod banned me for making the quote (which I did so he couldn't edit his message and I simultaneously reported him anyway) I figured it was just a simple mistake, but they didn't listen to my appeal, I tried to talk to other mods and they were all unimaginably obtuse assholes, so I got banned from that particular subreddit that I was a well-liked regular contributor on. To keep talking to the people I knew there I used an alt account for a while and then got lifetime IP banned for ban-evasion.
It's not that hard to make a new account and erase your cookies and reset your modem, etc etc. But now they have more and more tricks for removing humans, like shadowbanning anyone who ever says anything contentious, which is what they really want, completely synthetic communities of bots talking about whatever narrative they want to seed into the public narrative.
I estimate about 1/4 to half the users on the larger communities are all AI/bots. Once you realize it and look at all the posts and conversations in this framing you realize how utterly twisted and insidious our tech oligarchy has really become. They seem very human, they even make populist-sounding, human arguments and follow popular sentiment, which makes their narratives and concessions stand out.
The internet isn't just dead, it's a reanimated corpse cursed to follow the will of its lich-lords.
reddit upped thier anti-ban evasion, they know detect certain proxies, and your posting pattern and activity on the site. they use v captcha 3 alot now, which records your activity in the site, mouse click, keyboard, scrolling,,e,tc.
i had alt accts waiting in case one of my acc got too many subs restricted, but reddit found 90% of it, and im left with one that is flagged, but not banned .
im not surprised politics and news are mostly bots posting, about half of them are.

I think you nailed it.
