Reddit banned Paul McCartney over phone-free concert photos post in their subreddit (piunikaweb.com)

Paul McCartney’s official Reddit account seems to have been banned. The account, u/paulmccartney, had just dropped a set of photos and videos from the first night of his shows at the Fonda Theatre. It went straight into the r/PaulMcCartney subreddit. Then, not long after, the whole thing disappeared.

And why is that happened?

Nobody knows yet what triggered the ban. It could have been an automatic system, a moderator decision, or even some glitch with account verification. Reddit has not said a word about it.

I've been temp banned from Reddit multiple times now, for simply opposing genocide & war on behalf of Israel. People getting banned from Reddit should be seen as a badge of honor & means they're likely doing something right.

Can confirm, got permbanned for clowning on Nazis. It is a badge of honor to wear with pride.

I got a 3 day ban for suggesting Venezualans "return the favor" on Trump.

The AI mod prompts were not sufficient to encapsulate common sense. I am shocked.
