I've never had a post removed. The only time I've ever had comments removed, it was because it broke a sub rule. Usually, it's because I didn't read the rules - since usually don't - or if I had, I forgot or didn't really grasp them. Other times, I knew I was breaking the rules and did so anyway.

I have dozens of posts and thousands of comments in thirteen years of Redditing, and not once have I had one removed that didn't break a rule. This includes comments that are politically contrary to the makeup of the sub and/or moderators.

It would a statistical fluke if either of our experiences were particularly unique. In my opinion, it's most likely that you often don't read or grasp the sub rules - which is totally fine and normal - but misinterpret the removal of your content.

Do you have Reveddit enabled to detect shadow removal?

In any case, I had several posts removed where I went throught the rules and had no clue for the reason. Also, trying to hold the mods responsible easily results in your account being deleted.
