The mod strikes and closing of all the meme subs ended them more than they wanna admit. There's very few memes on there now especially making it to all. Second part is no one wastes time commenting when even an innocent opinion will get your account banned. Waste of time for consumers and contributors equally.

I said (in a relevant thread) that Turkish people in Europe have many more kids as European natives... Now I'm a nazi and my 12yo account got banned, no warning.

There's obviously context to that comment that we're not seeing here, but while that statement is not in itself racist, it is something that racist people tend to also say.

Yes it is. But talking about actual facts and getting banned without any recourse, especially when they cna literally click my name and see not a single nazi thing.. I hate extreme left and extreme right!

So no checkup no manner of arbitrage, just ban for ever. And also ban any new account I made.. For one single mention of a proven fact by numerous official sources = perma ban on all my accounts. Thanks reddit.
