I posted this yesterday:

And apparently this warrants a instant permaban.

They don’t even tell you what rule it breaks. Which one do you think it might break?

In any case, every time I visit Reddit and look at my local subs (Montréal, Québec or Canada) I look at the comments and they’re absolutely vile. The community has become so fucking toxic it’s unbearable. And I also realized how my mental health actually improved since I left that community.

They can keep the permaban. I don’t give a shit anymore. I’m so over that god forsaken place.

Peace out.

Quick update:

I contancted the mods and apparently I was permabanned for spamming and they immediately muted me so I wouldn’t be able to message the mods any further. I can understand that it can be considered spamming, but I feel they’re being extremely harsh over this. They really have no chill.

    Same, I’m from Montréal and the Reddit community for Montreal/Quebec is horrible. Sorry but they are full of leftist woke students and downvote or ban anyone who dare say that e.g. healthcare system is bad or education is bad or any truth about QC. I’ve been on Reddit for 13 or 14 years and about never posted or read those subs.

      You can tell a lot from a person who unironically uses woke as a term.

        It was ironic, but it looks like it works to trigger people here

        “Woke” has become a derisive term used by conservatives to describe anyone/anything socially conscious. It’s often part of a rant (or general line of thinking) involving “what’s wrong with this country/the younger generation”. For example, if you’re against things like racism, sexism, or homophobia, I’d call you a decent human being, but a conservative would likely call you “woke”.

        This is the kind of “insult” that says more about the person using it than it does about you.

      Show me where woke touched you in the feelings on the doll.

      Uh… No one is saying the healthcare or education systems are good. Everyone is pretty much on the same track about how much they suck.

      And so far, I’ve found Lemmy to be further more to the left than on Reddit.

        Reddit’s CEO is a literal neo-nazi. You would have to actively try to be more far right than reddit.

          I know he ain’t the most ethical person, but a literal neo Nazi? That’s a bit extreme no?

          I might not be aware of some of the things he’s done or said though… I haven’t been following everything he does.
