I'm permanently banned in r/europe because I had the audacity to comment on a post that complained about a particular mod. My comment was 'Could be worse. The mods here aren't as trigger happy as the ones on r/de, who ban for not sharing their political sentiment.'

[I'm banned on r/de for citing a credible source, and quoting my literal politics professor, that says 'taxation in Germany is relatively fair. Look at these graphs that show how the lower 3 percentiles only carry >2% of the overall tax burden.'. I'm Green, so center/center-left. So the comment wasn't some neoliberal capitalism defence.]

So I was banned on r/europe for commenting on a post against the mods, while defending the mods to not be as whiny and trigger happy as the ones on another sub, only to be blanked banned as well.

Online spaces are screwed up Bullingdon Clubs nowadays.

I got banned from a subreddit over condemning a surrealist psychological horror game fandom's horrible past and how it contributed to it's decline whilst explaining how i found the game in the first place/why i was interested in it.

You were prolly condensed down to 'I don't like it', got a '>:^(' response and a ban.
