Reddit became hypersensitive... goodbye

bootleg@lemm.ee to Reddit Migration@kbin.social – 0 points –

After 10 years and a few hundred thousand karma made a comment in r/europe that got me banned... in a discussion about AfD (a far, far right German party that has neo-Nazis as members) I made the mistake of saying "Guess we didn't drop enough bombs on Dresden" (since much of the support for AfD is from the east)... got permanently banned for threatening posts... guess on Reddit you've got to be nice to Nazis! So looking for a new spot for lively discussion with folks that aren't set to "auto-trigger".

I don't consider myself hypersensitive, but that was a really asshat remark to make to a large group of people.

No sympathy here. I'm not surprised they banned you. Did you perhaps stop to think about how many, out of the ~25,000 people killed, were innocent people, including children?

Dick move.

I agree with another commenter on here in that, we really don't need this kind of bullshit attitude around in general. Grow up, you're not 16 anymore and you're not a victim. We can see through the bullshit but you're playing your own victim fiddle here. I'm so fed up with self-victimizing assholes who obviously have done something to get them banned but they play like they're totally oblivious to the idea that there are rules and there are other people, because they're only thinking that they're the only ones who ever surf the internet.

It's like all of the posts I used to have read on r/banned a long time ago. 9 times out of 10, the bans were justified and the titles were always along the lines of "I said something innocent, wah, stoopid SJW culture, got banned" but then you look into it a little more and find "Ohhhhh, right, they were banned for being an intolerant prick. This is just them showing off their credentials to impress people over".
