      Yeah I did, I said nazi’s can go fuck themselves. That got me a warning. Then I said anti-vaxxers are idiots and that forced vaccinations might be a good idea. When I said that they said I was promoting violence and that got me banned. Seriously, fuck Reddit.

        I posted a gif of Luigi from Luigi’s Mansion and got a warning for promoting violence or whatever. So I just deleted my account and migrated.

        I helpfully added to the end of a comment, “If you see a Nazi, punch a Nazi”, as a play on “If you see something, say something.” That got me a one-week suspension. A couple of weeks later, I posted a link to a site that explains how many of the top corporations are owned and controlled, through stocks, by a small group of the same billionaires–they all sit on each other’s boards and block outsiders from being elected. That got me a permanent suspension. I haven’t been back.

        This was on my account that is eight years old, and had over a million comment karma, and about 40,000 post karma. Fuck 'em.

          That’s some real bullshit. Bruh, I had an 11 year old account. I’m perma banned now. According to them I was inciting violence.

            Apparently some guy decided to report me for posting C.P (there wasn’t a single person pic in my profile even) and reddit gave me the ban

            and when I asked for the appeal they didn’t even check it

        they will likely ban the “Kill minorities” but not fhe “[dogwhistle to kill] minorities”

        if those come here, were only getting the extra stupid nazis

    And in the end it wasn’t even really anything I said as much as the autoflag got my ass for posting on a temp account in a sub that banned my main account. Caught a perma ban for all my accounts with that shit.

    All because I originally said I hoped Elon overd*sed. (don’t wanna be banned from here too so censor it is.) They’re especially sensitive to that one in the Vancouver subreddit I guess for obvious reasons if you know about Vancouver.

    You might wanna try out the sorting “scaled” when browsing “all” to find new communities (or check out every c/newcommunity that interests you)

    But warning: scaled in all can have a lot of porn if you have nsfw on

    Reddit is nearly 100% AI bots these days on the popular subs. You’re good to get away. The interface over here is shite and takes forever to figure out, but the people are nice.

    Lost track of my reddit bans. Really lost track of my subreddit bans. I really stacked them up late 2023.

    I got perm banned for saying on a post about Nazis in South Dakota gathered on the Capitol steps, I said I was in the mood to punch some Nazis in the face. Reddit can suck it.

      I got banned for “threatening violence” for joking that Ryan Routh should get some help aiming for the neck from Tyler James Robinson.

      No sense of humor…

    Welcome in! Enjoy your stay.

    All I’ll say is that Lemmy is smaller than Reddit, so naturally a lot of convos default to politics and tech.

    Because of that though, you’ll be exposed to potentially new ideas regarding both. So be open minded! But also know that you can block users, communities, and instances if you find them unbearable.

    Cheers

      Right-wing views should be made fun of and discredited though, just like Flat Earthers or anti-vaxxers. Right-wing politics isn’t simply a “preference,” it’s support for a brutal system of imperialism and domination of the working class.

        Yes, likewise all statists should be made fun of and discredited. Statist politics isn’t simply a “preference,” it’s support for a brutal system of imperialism and domination of the working class.

          The state is progressive when it’s a working class state, ie socialism. The state is ultimately the means by which one class dominates others, it isn’t distinct from class society as its own independent entity. Until classless society can be achieved, it’s better for the ruling class to be the working class.

            The state is never progressive, it is always authoritarian.

            Classless society can never form in a hierarchical system where a state wields supreme power over the people.

              All states are authoritarian, yes, but the question is whose authority does the state represent, and against whom? In capitalism, that class is the bourgeoisie against the proletariat, in socialism that class is the proletariat against the bourgeoisie.

              Classless society can only be formed by full collectivization of production across all of society. Breaking society up into petite bourgeois communes with unequal ownership of the whole total resources and production of humanity retains classes, even if it tries to eliminate hierarchy. Hierarchy is not itself a bad thing, tacticians and strategians play different but critical roles.

              In a fully collectivized society, without class, there is no section of society needed to be especially oppressed. There is no longer an economic basis for a state, and as such it withers, as it has gradually to the extent it has collectivized production and distribution. It isn’t abolished by the stroke of a pen or at the barrel of a gun.
