An old account got banned on multiple completely unrelated subreddits because I was having a discussion with someone that self identified as a "responsible pitbull owner" and I asked them as part of the pitbull community to talk to irresponsible pitbull owners and make them responsible instead of defending them. Turns out the "responsible pitbull owner" was one of those mod hoarders on their alt account and went full pitbull when somebody dared to disagree with them. I filed a complaint to admins for mod abuse and obviously nothing happened.
And my current account has had multiple temporary bans for making fun of nazis. I mean, sure, I can take a temp ban for "inciting violence" when I remind the kids that every day is punch a nazi day. But these fragile little snowflakes can't even take some basic banter and the mods fold immediately when the nazis start weeping. It's funny and sad, isn't it.
