Just posted a question/discussion on Reddit about EV tarrifs. Was up for several hours, generated a great discussion and then it was removed by a mod. They reckoned it shouldn't be there, despite loads of super-helpful comments that were relevant to the community. The mod directed me to another sub. I posted in there and it was auto removed in minutes. Then my account was banned. Platform is fucked.

3 years ago in r/pics I left a comment to a pic. I know that it was a "piling-on" situation, as my entire comment was

And my axe!

Banned. The entire thread was killed and I could only see my comment: no clue as to context.

I asked a mod and got some 'f-u' response. I asked for clarification on that (politely, I promise) and got perma-banned.

Corrective action needs context. That was just fronting. As an ass, I can confirm: that mod also was an ass.

    I was in a small country sub and I asked why I was banned and got a snarky reply saying I copy pasted my question from the internet and I'm like what bro and got permabanned. (This was before chatgpt) Later, I found out a bunch of the mods didn't even live in the country which makes sense in hindsight cause they would be confused about certain cultural contexts and would take a more pro American stance when it comes to political posts/comments...
