Reddit's pathetic attempt to quash dissent - eviltoast

Reddit tried to sticky this post for moderators around 12p CST today, and they’ve since tried to bury it. Thought it might be good to back up the link here.

    They did the same to me, I was the top moderator and creator of Animalsbeingderps and Amsterdaments, and had 10-11 years of almost daily content and discussions, I was in general quite outspoken about conservatism and racism on reddit, and the IRL cultures that breed these types of mentalities. I was also pretty active on vaporents which was in nono territory for a while. First all of my alt accounts were permabanned, then the first time I made a comment on lemmy against reddit’s actions with this account, my main account was also permabanned. Bloody priceless.

      Derps was one of my favorites! I was outspoken on the admin team and racism but to be transparent I am Conservative in a Libertarian scope. You do you, just don’t infringe. So we are opposite of the scope both getting massively banned, maybe we have more in common than we think? Still suck to put in that much time and get the raw end.

        Honestly I hadn’t even considered it until this moment. But I don’t think I have it in me anymore. Though I do hope that it exists at some point. Lemmy could do with more cute animals.

      Animalsbeingderps was a great sub! I knew they were tracking all reddit accounts but to monitor other websites is downright Orwellian.
