    Lmao, I reported genocidal comments in r/worldnews and was site banned for the same reason.

    I had 4 reports total, 2 were acted on and the other 2 were pretty blatant calls to violence.

    It’s actually what made me quit Reddit.

      For my “worldnews” ban, I called someone out for ONLY posting pro-israel content, from biased Israeli media sources, and how every comment under all their posts that disagreed were downvoted into oblivion 😅

      The upvote/downvotes for my comment were shifting by dozens of votes in both directions for DAYS. It was hilarious

          It’s funny that you call us tankies when it’s Democrats and Republicans who gladly support a trillion and a half dollars a year being shipped off to war.

            Idk if it is just me but lemmy has appeared to have a massive right wing shift, at least a huge influx of liberals unable to have a conversation without blindly slinging accusations. A lot of people on lemmy now unable to comprehend unhappiness with the system, singing praises to the status quo and woefully inadequate reforms at best. Welcome to election season I guess.

      Site bans don’t carry the same weight here though. You get site banned, you can still be on all the other sites. With Reddit, a site ban means you can’t access the whole network.

      Meanwhile I got no questions asked appeal denied lifetime banned from Reddit for saying “I should totally be allowed to punch Nazis”.

      I always mentally append “Nazi sympathizers” to reddit now…
