someone on a subreddit said they had brain bleeding. i asked how it happened. a mod immediately removed it and said that it was an intrusive comment or some nonsense…i messaged them asking them to explain how, and i explained how i thought it would actually be beneficial for the readers if they decided to answer and that they didnt. they responded with some authoritarian nonsense which they actually later deleted. today i get this from them:
Yesterday, I told you:
please tell me that you are willing to back down, to follow our rules, and to take moderator direction in the future without endless and exhausting debate – or indeed without any debate at all. Otherwise, you will no longer be welcome at r/(removed)
Since you have not confirmed and are instead ignoring me, may I take this to mean that you no longer want to be part of r/(removed)?
i was tempted to reply “yes mistress”
this is sadly almost a step in the right direction cuz now they will ban you solely if they dont like your posts or other communities youre a part of.
they want you to go belly up and comply like they get off on it 😂.
i hope reddit crashes and burns hard lmao
You and the mods need to get your shit together and start creating shareholder value as you’re intended to do.
First day on Reddit?
lmao your user name
What an intrusive comment.
Intrusive, banned.
I don’t get grossed out super easily, but that name grosses me out every time.
Why aren’t you saying what sub it is or who the mini hitler was?
Ironically they only get this way because they go so balls deep on power modding multiple communities that they burn themselves out on the workload of processing literally any and every possible talkback on a flag.
I don’t get it. I modded one community with about 30k users, maybe 5% of which was active. The only thing I ever did for years was remove obvious reposts by bots and sticky weekly discussion threads. Communities normally police themselves decently well. Past a critical mass, I’m sure it gets a it harder but unless it’s a personal attack or completely unrelated, let people vote shit down.
I also don’t know why you’d want to be a mod of 45 subs with millions of users each. Shits shady AF.
Similar thing happened to me on /r/REBubble. Posted a story about how a tenant self immolated while being a victim. Got banned for 3 days for being political and violent even though it was a national story and posted in other parts of Reddit. I also got bombarded with Reddit Cares health checks implying that posting the story meant I was suicidal.
But yeah, just like 4chan, on top of having to follow the rules you have to tip toe around the mods’ political biases. In this case it was the mods getting upset at a story that laid bare the brutality that goes into enforcing the private property rights of landlords.
self emulated
Did you mean immolated?
Yes, fixed.
Why are you even still on Reddit? Should have quit years ago.
My guess is for the stuff thats hard to find anywhere else.
On the one hand I think reddit is getting really bad. On the other hand I’m not sure you can make sweeping statements about the state of reddit based on your negative interaction with one moderator.
Oh please, its been terrible for years now and we all know it. Not in every sub, but the top level ones absolutely are
On one thread there were a bunch of creeps making pervy jokes about a 14 year old girl. I called them out for being pedophiles and reported them. I got banned from an entire network of default subs.
Given the long history of reddit’s early factions, It looks like the evil side is the one in power again.
So… Conservatives.
Um… checks notes, “… this online culture (we will call it X) … [They] watch things like Ero Manga Sensei. They laugh at the thinly vailed excuses the show makes. The purpose is to protect the viewer from the discomfort its premise causes while stil fufilling the fantasy …” So… yeah. Thats correct.

Whats ”reddit”?
A cesspool of white supremacists and pedophiles?
The thing that this community is about.
Ah.
“He’s just a little shy because I’ve tried to kill him so many times.”
“Ah.”
That’s absolutely hilarious, as if this is some big high-stakes trial. That guy needs to get a grip on reality.
I had always thought that powertripping moderators would cause the downfall of reddit.
I still feel that it is the case, if reddit doesn’t crash itself before the moderators do
I finally threw in the towel when I got suspended by a bot for making a joke about Boeing.
I’m just waiting for the wrong person to get banned from some useless subreddit and then go ballistic and file a class action lawsuit. Double points if they are a shareholder too.
at this point i wouldn’t be surprised if the mods were ai bots as well. it would actually explain a lot. nice government experiment to see if they can get a community of bots to control society
If you still have to use reddit for some stuff, don’t comment / vote giving them engagement and content.
If you do you are part of the problem.
Sometimes the jannies get cranky
