I’m working on it. Maybe. Well, one day. Like when other Left of centre, anti trump, anti corpo type folks oppose the things I oppose in correct manner and degree, duh.

    Ahahaha, yeah I’m instantly a little suspicious when someone says they got permabanned for “nothing, absolutely nothing!”

      I was once permabanned on a couple of subreddits I had never visited before because I had commented on a thread in a sub they apparently didn’t like. It was called Kotaku and I had never heard of it before. Just saw a movie thread and commented because I love movies. The thing I hated the most about reddit was the expectation that everybody were as terminally online as the mods were. Not my fault a sub pops up in my feed and I decide to comment on the topic.

      Was likewise permabanned from the true childfree subreddit for making a post where I wanted to talk to people about the thoughts and doubts that comes with being childfree. I was going through some things at the time and just wanted to talk to likeminded people. Permabanned for “trolling”.

      And finally was permabanned for racism on a sub where the topic was the little mermaid remake and I mentioned that I thought Halle Bailey deserved better than to work for Disney. Had followed her and her sister’s youtube channel on/off since 2014 and really liked their voices and I didn’t want a young artist to be chewed up and spit out by one of the worst entertainment companies ever. I still love her and Chloe’s cover of Say Something and think it is better than the original.

      So yeah, sometimes you get permabanned for literally no reason or a made up reason. I had no sad feelings when I left reddit. I absolutely hated the mods on most subs. None of them seemed to have lived in the real world for years.

      Just admit you got permabanned for saying we should normalize punching nazis, it’s nothing to be ashamed of. It’s why we’re all here.

          That’s funny, because I originally wrote “hunting nazis” but revised it to “punching nazis” to make it more palatable to the non-violent. Although either statement would get you banned on reddit…

              @Gentryfried@feddit.uk, is there something you disagree with my statement?

              do you think that Nazi’s should live in the same world as the rest of us?

              As far as I knew all Nazis have been dead for a long time…if there are living Nazi’s, shouldn’t they be dead?

                  Fwiw, I automatically downvote this childish shit because almost everyone online seems to call anyone they dislike a Nazi.

                  If you’re using pop history’s biggest bad guys to refer to everyone with whom you disagree, oknbut you don’t also get to claim the moral high ground that comes with punching aforementioned popular history’s worst bad guys.

                  You’re just saying you want to punch those with whom you disagree, minus the intellectual justification.

                    the only good Nazi is a dead Nazi.

                    💀

                    can you point out where I called anyone a Nazi?

                    If you feel personally attacked by the statement, I have some bad news for you…

                    The part where you’re wrong is when you assume I’m using “nazi” to refer to anyone I disagree with. Maybe some people do that, and that would be both childish and incorrect. Similar to some people using “communist” the same way.

                    However, that’s not how I use the terms. I have more than a surface-deep level of understanding pertaining to fascism, and I’m capable of recognizing the signs and symptoms. Are you?

                    Anyone who’s been paying attention can see the resurgence of fascism happening plain as day. People openly praising hitler should not be normal. People doing nazi salutes or parading nazi flags should not be normal. Government officials instituting nazi-esque policies, with nazi-style tactics, for professed reasons that are reminiscent of nazi-like worldviews, should not be normal.

                    Your comment is no different from when tankies get upset when I call them tankies, and they claim that I’m only calling them that because I disagree with them. No, I only call people tankies if they’re behaving like tankies. There are specific argumentative styles that distinguish them.

                    I’m perfectly capable of disagreeing with someone without calling them a nazi or a tankie, if they’re not behaving like a nazi or a tankie. If they are, then their behavior needs to be corrected. If they refuse to correct their behavior, then they should be rejected, shunned, and removed from polite society.

                    Society cannot tolerate intolerance, or else it will become an intolerant society. And the only people arguing otherwise do so only to try to justify their own intolerance.

                    So it’s pretty sus that you come here trying to obfuscate things by claiming it’s childish to call out nazism (or if you prefer more generally, for technical accuracy, fascism; although literal neonazis have also made a resurgence).

      I believe I got perma banned for posting Luigi gifs and guillotines after the UHC guy got euthanized.

      The real reason Reddit gave was something about using another account to avoid a ban … but I only had one account. Reddit was just weird, had to be an AI thing.
