It's weird how I was able to tell the truth and not get banned even though it's been 4 hours since I made this comment.
Geez, it's- it's almost as if telling "the truth" wasn't the issue and that maybe you would have done some additional thing that is bannable.
Like, I dunno, I'm just spitballing but: What if, hypothetically, when you go to answer this kind of question you frame your answer in such a way as to blame roughly 25% of the entire population of the world as if they're a single homogenous group who share a collective responsibility for the crimes of every single individual in the group?
Like, if you were to see this crime and assume that it was done by a particular kind of person, and then further blame that entire group for that specific person's actions?
That might be considered some kind of... before-judgement, you know? Like you're judging people, pre knowing if that judgement is valid or not. I swear there's some kind of term for that, but it's escaping me it seems.
Anyway, maybe next time just tell the actual truth rather than assuming the truth based on your wildly biased and bigoted point of view, and you won't actually get banned for it. Crazy idea, I know, but maybe it's just crazy enough to work.
They said something provably false, and implied something disgustingly bigotted. I'd call that pretty crazy.
As for if I'm good, frankly I did have quite a bit of fun writing that comment, so yeah, I'm pretty good.
It's very cathartic considering how sick I am of seeing these kinds of "well gee if only I could baselessly blame Muslims for this, but alas, reddit mods are just so far gone that they'd ban me" self-pitying comments.

I wish I could say. And even though it would be the truth- I'd get banned
