In a post regarding climate change I called another user an “Ignorant Slut” like that line from the Office. Anyways got permanently banned site wide and I just can’t help but wonder if that was necessary.
It’s not like I say that all the time, it was a one off instance and they just remove me from their site. I don’t mind it so much since it’s just a Reddit Account but it is really annoying since I can’t help but feel the admins had it out for me as they banned my account unjustly before and then reinstated it. But this time the ignorant slut was all the reason they needed to remove me from their existence.
Anyways just wanted to rant to the void on how dumb Reddit can be sometimes.
The other thing is that they typically ban you for life, which is harsher even than our legal system. As a society we’ve agreed that it’s possible to pay your debt to society, but private companies have no obligation to see things that way. It’s like we’ve taken rules to deal with trolls in an old school Counter Strike server and tried to extend them to something that resembles a corporatocracy. It’s a lot different and more meaningful to get banned from service provided by a monopolistic company compared to getting banned from your local bar, for example, when you can just go across town to the other one.
it’s fairly horrific, like being banned from amazon. So Amazon is “hey we want a monopoly on all commerce!” … and then if you’re banned by them?
