r/RedditCensors banned over…. bringing the bullying and authoritarianism to light that some mods dabble in? Wild.

A post in r/RedditCensors is what kicked it off I’m pretty certain, showcasing how a user was banned from WhitePeopleTwitter over correcting someone on the type of weapon that was used in a shooting or something like that. Within 24 hours, a bunch of people who had this post recommended to them (not even apart of the sub, mind you) who then left a comment, were also banned from WPT simply for association! Then as the subs goal, folks made posts showcasing the absolute hypocrisy of this site in which “everyone has a right to use Reddit free of harassment, bullying and threats of violence”… uh huh, anyway that sub is gone, wiped off the map, I wonder why.

Moderator code of conduct, rule 3, point 4. Dont interfere in other communities. Interference includes

Showboating about being banned or actioned in other communities, with the intent to incite a negative reaction.

Almost every post was complaining about another sub because they got banned.

Showboating

And there's the ill defined standard. What's the difference between showboating and having a discussion?
