After 10 years and a few hundred thousand karma made a comment in r/europe that got me banned… in a discussion about AfD (a far, far right German party that has neo-Nazis as members) I made the mistake of saying “Guess we didn’t drop enough bombs on Dresden” (since much of the support for AfD is from the east)… got permanently banned for threatening posts… guess on Reddit you’ve got to be nice to Nazis! So looking for a new spot for lively discussion with folks that aren’t set to “auto-trigger”.
Personally I am not really a fan of banning users for being an asshole (serial assholes are a different story), but one less asshole is still a net positive for the community so it’s not like they would be missed.
The moral of the story is, don’t be an asshole!
