No warning, not even a "Don't do it again email" - I had a work account, that was logged in on my works laptop, I made a comment critical of Netanyahu, and the Gaza genocide, which got that account banned from /pics. This was months ago, then I made a comment on pics, on my main account. That's it, gone, banned.

I even have another spare account, from 2008, logged in to that, that's banned too. FFS!

No luck on appeals, so I guess no more reddit, ever again. Anyone managed to get around this?

Race, nationality, and religion are all protected classes. Firing someone for expressing support for a protected class is dubious at best.

    so yeah, agreed. we're speaking about the broad general features here though. (and, of course, statesia centric because where else could we be talking about) the constitution protects you from the government, not private businesses. it's other laws in the titles in the code of federal regulations and various judicial decisions that provide protection for various rights. there's some strange overlap where private businesses fill government functions, but that's a flaw our system not a key feature.
