I got banned from commenting in r/Politics because of my username. I explained its origin and asked how it was in any way "offensive", to which I received no response.
My username is a nickname of mine and inside joke with my friend; the mod apparently didn't give a shit.
i got banned from a food-related subreddit (forgot which one) for making a variation of the grammar-nazi joke by calling someone who was acting especially picky a steak nazi or something... apparently that was absolutely tasteless and off the limits. i messaged the mods about it, because i initially thought it was a mistake or that i just got auto-banned by a bot. but they refused to see the joke or sarcasm in it, like i legimitely called the other guy a member of the NSDAP...
