"Don't be you" - Reddit is supporting a community that is dangerous and promotes intolerance; r/Robinhood
I was recently banned from the subreddit, r/Robinhood for making a comment about Robinhood's shady practices. I quoted their own rule, "Don't be you", calling them hypocrites, and received a 7 day ban from Reddit the following day.
How can we draw attention to Reddit supporting a subreddit whose very rules promote and protect intolerance and harassment?
I encourage you to message Reddit directly and report this community.

Thanks! I’m excited that there’s finally a decent alternative to Reddit.

For sure. Did you find Lemmy through a Google search?
no.
Welcome! Lemmy isn't perfect, but it's far, far less toxic, in my opinion...
Thanks! I’m glad there’s a decently sized community here and a functioning alternative UI. I’ve already experienced a little toxicity, but all in all positive so far. Hopefully when the user base grows the toxicity doesn’t grow with it.
Yeah, it's beyond redemption in my opinion. Every decision they've made in the past few years has been horrible and anti-user...
