It seems likely the reason each one banned him is the same reason their every post and comment is sitting at < -25. People detest the anti-democrat messaging and the way it’s delivered. It’s undeniable that this user rubs enough people the wrong way that they get a lot of attention for that alone.
During an election year especially, I expect better of any social media website than to just let this shit happen.

Reddit bans everyone though, that’s not a good marker. ;)
From a modding perspective, I look at it like this:
“Would this link be allowed if it were anyone OTHER than Monk posting it?”
Yes? It stays. I’m sorry you don’t like it, but it’s a valid link from a valid source.
The point is that the user themselves is toxic to have here, especially during an election season.
Yeah, I don’t really understand the idea that a long history of a certain type of toxic behavior doesn’t count for anything. I think it should.

Oh, we get reports on the articles themselves ALL THE TIME.
