Throwback to reddit serving posts / ads from blocked users because $$$

This was from around 3 weeks ago. I pretty religiously (pun intended) blocked and reported ads from the "hegetsus" fundie christian bs group for probably 6-8 months. Naively I thought it actually started making a difference.

Then I just get served an ad from them with a little note that this was "Posted from a blocked account".

"Blocked"... you keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means...

Same here. I always reported for hate speech or porn, depending on my mood at the time. Still got their crap. Yet another reason to feel good about nuking Reddit.

Yeah I actually tried to play by the rules and just reported it as spam every time and also blocked the account.
