Speedrunning a permaban on my 15 year old account. How many days do you think it will take?

    By this logic is the platform its self not breaking the rules by allowing a forum for the conversation to take place?

    Getting band for something like this is like the equivalent of seeing a graffiti artist painting something on a public wall, smiling or nodding in approval, and getting a ticket handed to you around the corner for “participating”.

      If they make the rules they can’t break them. Just like how our felon president walks completely free.

    Can you or somebody else with a Reddit account post a photo of Woody Guthrie to r/pics and/or some major history subreddit and title it “Woody Guthrie and his iconic guitar” but use the Reddit alien logo as a censor over the “This machine kills fascists” written on his guitar?

      I believe it. I got warned and had my comment deleted for “glorifying violence”

      I was supporting Canadian boycotts of American goods.

      Let that sink in - I was reprimanded for glorifying violence because I supported economic protests.

      What is an economic protest if not literally the primary, go-to alternative to violent protest?

    Talk about the thought police! I saw it coming for awhile, but past me from a decade ago is shocked that Reddit has come to this.

    Yooooo I scrubbed my profile when I left but this would be a great way to finally get it dealt with for good.

        I know that. I used the platform for free, of course they’re going to keep the information. What I’m trying to do is make any thread I ever posted on or posted a little more unusable and littered with remnants of some info that was there but now isn’t. I know there have been instances in the past where they resurrect a deleted post or comment because it was relevant, but I don’t think anything I ever did got nearly enough traction to warrant that. So I’ll do whatever I can, it’s better than not doing anything.

    so would this work if I made a comment then edited it?

    I’m thinking it would be fucking hilarious to go on conservative and get them to upvote it only to edit it to say something like, “Luigi is a hero!”, then they just start banning all the bots and conservatives.

    Whatever their goal is, one result is apparent: less voicing of opposite views to the status quo on their website.
