It’s horrifying especially to think how Reddit never did anything about the fucked up things incels would say they wanted to do to underage girls and women, or the literally jailbait, racist, insanity they’d share. Basically that stuff was always okay, but if you want to defend yourself against your oppressor? Banned for upvoting despite you didn’t even think the comment was “bannable”.
Everybody upvote Luigi content! Get banned! Leave reddit! Reddit crumbles! Fuck reddit! Go Luigi! Lemmy grows! Centralized social media dies! I eat a burrito. That last one wasn’t really on topic, but it’s happening anyways! I’m hungry.
So if the content is banned how are people up voting it?
I just created a Lemmy account because of this stupid policy. Republicans/Conservatives can spew all manner of hate without consequence and we upvote “Elbows Up” (a hockey term BTW) and we get banned? Screw that.
Exactly the same. I got critical of the right and all of a sudden banned for violence ? After 12 years ? And me NEVER calling for harm to anything.
But I got hyper critical of the right and that’s what did it.
Reddit is and has failed.
Yeah, i got banned because i literally told someone to fix their bot that had spammed me for years!!!
Yeah, that’s why I’m here now. That site has just been getting shittier and shittier.
Reddit; hear no evil, see no evil, upvote no evil
And now here I am.
Which is why I’m here!
Why I’m here on Lemmy now lol.
Finally made the jump. Reddit is a right-wing cesspool of censorship.
Friendly reminder that almost all news media outlets and social media platforms are owned by a handful of extremely wealthy individuals and they are in full control of the algorithm that feeds you content, so you’ll likely never see anything that is critical of them or advocates for them to have less power or influence than they do.
This is the 2025 version of “The revolution won’t be televised”.
I actually came here today because of this! So far so happy with Lemmy
I got banned from my city’s subreddit for calling out racism and within minutes was then banned 3 other Canadian subreddits.
The Russkies seem to have a stranglehold on our social media platforms
Reddit is turning into an American-dominated oligarchy. That’s why I moved to Lemmy. Hi everyone!
