someone on a subreddit said they had brain bleeding. i asked how it happened. a mod immediately removed it and said that it was an intrusive comment or some nonsense…i messaged them asking them to explain how, and i explained how i thought it would actually be beneficial for the readers if they decided to answer and that they didnt. they responded with some authoritarian nonsense which they actually later deleted. today i get this from them:

Yesterday, I told you:

please tell me that you are willing to back down, to follow our rules, and to take moderator direction in the future without endless and exhausting debate – or indeed without any debate at all. Otherwise, you will no longer be welcome at r/(removed)

Since you have not confirmed and are instead ignoring me, may I take this to mean that you no longer want to be part of r/(removed)?

i was tempted to reply “yes mistress”

this is sadly almost a step in the right direction cuz now they will ban you solely if they dont like your posts or other communities youre a part of.

they want you to go belly up and comply like they get off on it 😂.

i hope reddit crashes and burns hard lmao

    Similar thing happened to me on /r/REBubble. Posted a story about how a tenant self immolated while being a victim. Got banned for 3 days for being political and violent even though it was a national story and posted in other parts of Reddit. I also got bombarded with Reddit Cares health checks implying that posting the story meant I was suicidal.

    But yeah, just like 4chan, on top of having to follow the rules you have to tip toe around the mods’ political biases. In this case it was the mods getting upset at a story that laid bare the brutality that goes into enforcing the private property rights of landlords.
