I've confirmed this with multiple accounts now. If you promote the 2nd amendment, including training responsibly with others, your account will be autobanned within 60 seconds.

To be clear, my comments contained exactly zero calls to violence. They were simple comments stating every American has the right to arm themselves and that everyone should train responsibly, ideally with others who are more experienced.

I've had 4 or 5 accounts autobanned within a minute now. All immediately after posting pro 2nd amendment comments. These accounts were anywhere from 1 week to multiple months old. So they're not brand new accounts that are being flagged for whatever reason.

Reddit is now complicit in the fascist takeover of our nation.


EDIT: Been testing some more with a 2 week old account. Discovered that Reddit is also autobanning accounts that use the word "guillotine". I left a comment that literally only consisted of the word "guillotine", no other context at all, and within 30 seconds I was auto-suspended for 3 days.

If the mod who was in here telling people I was lying with no proof whatsoever, and who also lied about testing my methods, would like to test this out, or lie about testing it out, that would be great.

And, for the record, my username for the account just suspended actually has the word "Guillotine" in it. So apparently their bots don't screen usernames. Just contents of comments, and I'm assuming posts. I don't bother posting on Reddit, so I don't know about that one.

As I originally stated, Reddit is complicit in the fascist takeover of our nation.


Edit 2: Despite a mod on this sub claiming that I'm lying and threatening to delete this post, here is more proof from users on Reddit that Reddit is, in fact, auto banning users for discussing our Constitutional rights.

I've been seeing more and more Reddit users talking about this.

    It's Reddit. It's a cesspool run by trash humans.

    So yes, you can talk about guns and the 2nd amendment all you want when children are being murdered in school, but if fascists control the government, you gotta stop that, because you're now an "agitator".

    Edit: Actually, to be fair, most Reddit users are good enough people to grasp that fascism has come to America and fascism is bad. So calling the site in general a cesspool isn't necessarily accurate. The shitstains are mostly bots and a small percentage of trash humans. The real issue are the trash humans running the site and dictating the rules that have driven us all to Lemmy.

    I only run Reddit in a private browsing window. When they permaban me I reset the browser and close it, open up a new private window, create a new Reddit account with a throwaway email and I'm back in and don't get permabanned again until I promote our Constitutional rights or tell a Trump supporter their mother shouldn't have carried to term and get reported for hurting their feelings.

    So I'm assuming they catch account hoppers via cookies.

    I even have a browser script that auto-adds all my subs back so I don't lose all my subs. There's some nuance to that though as if the script auto-adds too many subs too quickly, you'll get flagged and auto-banned. So I have to set the script to only add one sub every 5000ms and then leave that tab alone while it adds all my subs. I only care about the subs at all because Lemmy doesn't have all the really specific subs I find myself sometimes needing to post on for answers to specific shit.

    Yeah see there you go. That’s a frame and put on the wall statement.

    Mine was for agreeing with a Muslim woman on the Fauxmoi sub that the reason the bloke who disarmed that Bondi shooter and didn’t kill him afterward was that he’s a peaceful Muslim. That was my thought when I saw it, most Muslims I’ve met are exceptionally peaceful people. I said ‘I thought the same…thanks for your insight.’

    That got a permaban. I appealed it and it failed. I’m not the only one I think, I’m certain there were a few others as well. So that’s inciting violence.

    My interpretation is that the narrative of Islam or Muslims possibly being peaceful in nature isn’t one they want put out there. It doesn’t surprise me, as I said Maxwell is back on the site so it’s not hard to work out what’s happening.

    I've noticed in the last year or so that more and more usernames on Reddit are the auto-generated ones you can opt to use when creating a new account. They all have the same general format. And it's not like they're all bots. For the most part they leave comments that are clearly not bot comments. My assumption is that so many people are being banned, so regularly, that when they come back with new profiles they're just going with the auto-generated usernames because they know they're just gonna get banned again, so why bother being creative?

    I got that much karma election year just sharing information everywhere. Really enjoyed that account was making friends and shit. What they do is they send bots or something once they notice you are popular to report all of your posts. So that gets you suspended and then you appeal. Takes 24 hours to get it looked at and approved… then they send the bots right back at you immediately to report your old posts. Over and over and over and over effectively banning you without banning you.

    That’s what they do to people that follow the rules.

    Yeah, I'll share it right here. It's just a script you copy/paste into your browser's console. Basically, you're on a page that lists all your subs with a "join" button next to them. The script tells the browser to click the "join" button then move to the next one and click "join", so on and so forth.

    It will give you a link address like this: https://old.reddit.com/r/[subreddit1+subreddit2...+subredditN]

    • Visit that link using your new account.

    • Open the console in your browser by pressing F12 and then click the console tab

    • Paste the code below and press enter (everything I put between the =====)

    ================================================

    const sub = () => {

               let btn = document.querySelector(".add.active");
    
               if(btn) {
    
                              btn.click();
    
                              setTimeout('sub()', 5000);
    
               } else {
    
                              alert("You have subscribed to all the subreddits successfully");
    
                              return;
    
               }
    

    }

    setTimeout('sub()', 5000);

    =============================================

    Like I said, it can take a while if you have a lot of subs because of that 5000ms delay between each "click" to prevent Reddit from detecting you're adding too many subs too quickly. So just leave that tab alone for a while. Then, make sure you refresh that tab when done, because sometimes there will be a few subs that the script didn't work on for some reason and I just have to find them in the list and manually click the "join" button. Worked fine with every sub on the new account I created yesterday though.

    So when I'm banned I just copy that big "multireddit of your subscriptions" link and paste it into a notepad window temporarily. Then I reset my browser, open it back up and open a private browsing tab, create a new Reddit account, and continue following the steps above. I also have a browser (Brave) set aside specifically for Reddit. That way I can reset my browser and not really care about clearing settings for other sites.

    Your traffic is measured by them and used to increase their numbers when making ad sales. Regardless of whether you have given them any money and blocked all their ads, you still count as traffic to the site, and that is what they are selling to advertisers.

    So, yes, even though you don't intentionally give them any money, the majority of the money they make is from the valuation placed on traffic to the site, which you continue contributing to.

    I guess that begs the question, is spending the majority of your time on a generally censorship free site like Lemmy, but continuing to spend some time on the most popular site of its kind that does censor, in order to combat misinformation, defend our rights, and promote a better site morally wrong? Is it worth conbributing to their ad revenue? When you know the site is so popular it isn't going anywhere anyway?

    Either way, this is a Lemmy sub about Reddit and you can't really know everything that's going on with Reddit unless you're logged in and contributing in some way.

    Personally, I believe correcting misinformation and spreading awareness about our rights is worth continuing to login on a sporadic basis.

    Well, something to consider is that engaging on Reddit isn't even on the level of limited individual action like voting is. You're having a cascading effect on the viability of the site by engaging with other people. It's what makes the site function. You're the product for advertisers in more ways than one.

    Besides, clearly you believe in the power of collective action making a difference, given you're promoting firearms training with others. Same energy applies to withdrawing from the site.

    You keep asking for evidence. What evidence could I provide from a deleted comment and auto-ban? Are you so full of yourself that you think I'm going to take a screenshot of every comment I make on Reddit so I can show you, some rando on Lemmy, when I get an auto-ban for one of them? And how would you know that my auto-ban was from that comment if Reddit deletes the comment? As a mod on Lemmy's Reddit sub you must be aware that once you're auto-banned for a comment you don't get to see the comment you were banned for. You can only see the sub it was posted in.

    Actually, you know what. Since you're so concerned about evidence, how about you post a screenshot of the comment you made, clearly showing us that you included all the keywords I listed in my other comments, then show us your comment history to prove to us that comment is still there and that your account hasn't been banned. Why should I believe anything you say if you don't provide evidence?

    You believe you're doing some kind of public service here, but in reality you're just being really annoying. Find a better way to spend your time. I've stopped caring about your opinions and you'll be blocked going forward.

    Yeah. Phones are another thing altogether. I haven't used Reddit mobile for years because of this. At least not logging in to an account anyway. Which doesn't bother me much. I really only use Reddit on PC and I pointed out in another comment that all I do is run Reddit in a private browser window, then once I'm banned, I reset the whole browser, open up a new private window and create a new account. I can go months with a new account like that before being banned based on a comment. So it works. I'm assuming they use cookies to track and the combination of using a private browser window and resetting the browser is enough to bypass their bullshit.

    But on phones I think they capture some kind of identifying value for the phone itself, like a MAC address, and then that device is toast on Reddit going forward.

    My previous comment: Exactly I've never needed a gun I think its purely marketing and social expectations causing Americans to default to "muh guns" when someone's mentioned self defense. Like if ur up against guns js wear body armour at all times rather than trying to be john wick.

    Editing to add my other comment which adds why it acc worsens tyranny: I've been stabbed too. Ive never felt the need to carry a gun. I face a lot of risk anytime I leave my house esp rn acc due to political unrest essentially I still don't feel the need for guns yet the government do feel the need for arming trained police (known for corruption and violence where I'm from) who I think are a lot more likely to kill me than someone w a knife. As I mentioned tho I still don't feel the need to arm myself against those people infact doing so would worsen the situation as I'd be more of a threat and could be further used for the narrative justifying the arming of police in the first place

    Edit: if an unarmed person is shot by police even if its attempted to be covered up the people who were there will know what happened. if I try to shoot the police because im threatened and they shoot back that's going to worsen things. I don't see how its better to carry a gun in this situation

    Figured others had experienced the same thing and wanted to chip in their experiences or, if they cared enough, could test it out on their own.

    Either way, the comment was auto-deleted by Reddit so I'm just paraphrasing anyway.

    I stated that everyone should exercise their 2A right and arm themselves. And if they are already experienced with firearms they should help others who are interested arm themselves and help them train. I also pointed out that, in this political climate, if they want to chat with friends/family about purchasing firearms, they may want to use an end-to-end encrypted messaging app.

    That's it. That was the content of my comment. None of that is questionable. None of that breaks Reddit site wide rules. None of it is a call to violence. And, not that it matters on a privately owned platform, but all of that is supported by our Constitution.

    Also, why did you say

    Why do you keep saying this

    This is the first post I've ever made about this. I've never even made a comment on Lemmy about this.

    Dude.

    You're a moderator.

    Learn how to read.

    When Reddit bans you for a comment they DELETE THE COMMENT.

    I've already, in multiple responses to others on this post, tried to detail what was in the comment as closely as I could.

    You sound like you want me to verbatim recreate a comment I posted that was deleted when you probably are well aware that Reddit deletes the comment.

    Is this a mod power trip?

    Screen grabbed.

    If it were a mod power trip, your post or comment would be deleted lol

    “As closely as I could” yet you seem unable to restate the content any better than “I supported the second amendment”.

    If the pro-2A comments are automatically deleted, why are there subreddits full of them?

    “As closely as I could” yet you seem unable to restate the content any better than “I supported the second amendment”.

    Again, you prove you are a mod who doesn't read comments.

    Read my comments again. I responded to TWO people with a close approximation of the contents of my comment. In one I even stated "that's actually pretty damn close".

    So do your mod due diligence and expand the comments and hit CTRL+F and do a search for "that's actually pretty damn close" to view the comment where I tried to recreate the comment as closely as I could. I just didn't do it in any of my comments to you because I don't like you and I'm not repeating myself for you.

    See, this is how I know in your other comment to me that you tested my theory and found it false that you didn't actually test my theory. Because you've made it clear you haven't read my other comments where I detail the contents of my Reddit comment that got me auto-banned. So there's no way you could know the key words that all have to be in the comment to receive the auto-ban.

    How do you even have multiple accounts get banned, without all of them getting banned?

    I'll repost what I posted to someone else's comment.


    I only run Reddit in a private browsing window. When they permaban me I reset the browser and close it, open up a new private window, create a new Reddit account with a throwaway email and I’m back in and don’t get permabanned again until I promote our Constitutional rights or tell a Trump supporter their mother shouldn’t have carried to term and get reported for hurting their feelings.

    So I’m assuming they catch account hoppers via cookies.

    I even have a browser script that auto-adds all my subs back so I don’t lose all my subs. There’s some nuance to that though as if the script auto-adds too many subs too quickly, you’ll get flagged and auto-banned. So I have to set the script to only add one sub every 5000ms and then leave that tab alone while it adds all my subs. I only care about the subs at all because Lemmy doesn’t have all the really specific subs I find myself sometimes needing to post on for answers to specific shit.

    That's interesting. I hadn't thought about cookies. I had my account permabanned and when I tried to make a new one using another email account, it got banned instantly for trying to circumvent the ban. So I tried it again with a VPN running...same thing.

    I didn't actually care that much, so I didn't bother trying harder than that. Thanks for the info.
