Why I got temporarily banned from, and why I’m not going back to Reddit.

MuhammadJesusGaySex@lemmy.world to Reddit@lemmy.world – 110 points –

Someone made a post with a picture of a blonde haired blue eyed child. The title was “Would you slap this child for 88 million dollars?”

I said “Slap!?!?? I would eat that child’s still beating heart for 88 million dollars.”

Next day I log in to find out I had been temp banned for 7 days for sexualization/abuse of a minor.

I uninstalled Reddit. That was 11 days ago and I haven’t been back. Context is important. Obviously, no one is going to offer me 88 million dollars to eat a child’s heart. Not to mention, do you really want to make deals with people that can offer that to you? I mean, I wouldn’t.

All this has led me to realize. I don’t want to be part of a community with no sense of humor.

I would post a link but not only was my comment deleted. The thread was too I think.

I'm in a minority that Nazis want killed, so don't lecture me on what is the appropriate course of action. Essentially it seems your argument is "I went looking for Nazis and I found them, then I broke the rules and I want immunity" It doesn't seem to different from what the Nazis themselves say. Your problem isn't with fascism, it's that you aren't the one at the top of it.

.....and yes, all your wild conjecture about me does seem emotionally frantic and pearl-clutching, and makes you and others like you incredibly hard to take seriously, and so, in fact.......I don't.
