    I mearly suggested that there should be more stepping on toes, on a post about a news article about Republican toes being stepped on by judges, and they sent me a warning that “I was advocating for violence”. Like, no, my sweet summer child, if I was advocating for violence, my rhetoric would be more… violent.

    Edit: Decided right then and there I was done splitting my time between reddit and the fediverse.

      I tried to appeal, because sure… if a community has rules, and I break them, I can own that. But the post had already been “removed by moderator” so I couldn’t even see what it said. It wasn’t even in my post history. I asked “The offending post has been removed, is there a way to see it so I can address the issue regarding my ban? I’m willing to admit when I’m wrong.” I’ve been banned before, I know how it goes.

      Response: “Your appeal has been denied.” End of story. Not even a fair chance at appeal. Nothing I would have said would have mattered, because it was pro-Luigi.

      It’s okay though, Reddit will be the next Twitter/X in a few months. Nothing of value will be lost.
