Everybody upvote Luigi content! Get banned! Leave reddit! Reddit crumbles! Fuck reddit! Go Luigi! Lemmy grows! Centralized social media dies! I eat a burrito. That last one wasn't really on topic, but it's happening anyways! I'm hungry.

Burrito pilled Lemmy maxing

I just created a Lemmy account because of this stupid policy. Republicans/Conservatives can spew all manner of hate without consequence and we upvote "Elbows Up" (a hockey term BTW) and we get banned? Screw that.

[–] A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Thats some goddamn thought police shit.

Also tells you how goddamn awful the powers that be are, that the only way they can stop criticism of their badness is to ban anyone that even gives the lowest effort agreement with the criticism.

I barely used Reddit - good riddance, this is what spurred me to sign up here. The right wing infestation of social media is nasty.

10 years on reddit, surprised about my comments never getting the same traction as identical comments. 3 days ban for insinuating a billionaire performing a Nazi salute may indeed be a Nazi, second ban for insinuating violent action sometimes needs to be taken in defense of democracy. Permaban for (politely and positively) judging the looks of someone that asked to be judged through a photography, and clearly needed lo lift up their self-esteem.

I rage quit reddit and delete my account that I opened long ago with the Google account I have recently cancelled.

I decide that maybe it deserves a second chance, so I create a new account with the email I account I host myself in my own server with my own domain.

The exact same comments I posted, with the exact same content and intention now get thousands of upvotes (so clearly, I had been shadowbanned for years)

Fuck them. Hello community, looking forward to have constructive interactions here.

I was also banned because I called nazi to a nazi (he was saying some sht about venezuelan and Colombian people in a south American subreddit, not even a US one)

Reddit is turning into an American-dominated oligarchy. That's why I moved to Lemmy. Hi everyone!

Well that's just straight up fucking bonkers.

[–] 01189998819991197253@infosec.pub 1 points 10 months ago

Any more bonkers than anything else on Reddit since the exodus? Lol

[–] huquad@lemmy.ml 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Citizen, you have been found guilty of wrong think!

[–] pastermil@sh.itjust.works 1 points 10 months ago

Thought police will be dispatched.

[–] Asmodeus77@lemmy.today 0 points 10 months ago

That's why I'm here.

Someone posted this and that’s honestly scary. I hope more people abandon this sinking ship of Reddit.

[–] Tryenjer@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

They are sending this if you show support for Ukraine.

[–] Daelsky@lemmy.ca 1 points 10 months ago

Yikes. More reasons to stop using Reddit. Слава Украине. (From a Russian-Ukrainian immigrant in Canada 🇨🇦🇺🇦)

[–] PixelPilgrim@lemmings.world 1 points 10 months ago

Seems like lemmyverse needs to advertise on Reddit

[–] Gewoonmoi@lemmy.world 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Perma banned because I wished c-ncer on a pro-Israel troll. Is that an earned ban you guys think?

[–] Makhno@lemmy.world -1 points 10 months ago

I got banned when I saw someone say trans kids should be hunted in schools, and I told them I wish they'd get hit with a brick.
