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.

Banning a sub about how Reddit mods are shitty and shouldn’t be mods? Sounds like Reddit mods

Bro I had am account banned for a misunderstanding. Ton of karma and post history. Appealed and got instantly rejected with an auto response. I was in the right and mods where to lazy to take it seriously

Yeah my first account was exactly like that. I’d purchase Karma to actually award to others and got banned from a subreddit over a misunderstanding. I replied stating that it was an honest misunderstanding, and got “muted”. I had no idea that sending a mod mail to state my case was considered moderator harassment and I lost the account.
