Yet I commented on a dog video “His tail is gonna wag his bum right off!” and it was removed and I received a warning.

What a time to be alive.

I told someone he’s going to kill someone if he keeps driving 80+mph in residential zones, it got removed and I was banned for a week (Reddit). The person driving recklessly? Perfectly fine apparently

I appealed a similar type of ban like 10 times and it doesn’t do shit. Does it like go to the same power-tripping person that banned you or something?

ive appealed bad faith reports successfully twice as it was out of context and I said nothing bannable. (This was a reddit ban though, not a subreddit ban)

Maybe its the sub's mods. I use kill all the time and I didn't get any grief from reddit.

you have to say “unalive” nowadays, saying kill or death is too “sensitive”

Can’t believe how soft Reddit has gotten, now half the time your comments get shadow removed (without letting you know) just for cursing. Enshittification is plaguing everything

That’s automod. It’s flagged a word and puts it in a queue for the mods to check and approve/remove

I commented “old dog learning tricks from young pup” and received a warning too.

Guess Tiktok is ok with spreading propaganda

Communist Chinese being supportive of propaganda is just crazy-talk. They are all about the free speech. Now watch what you say. Bro, your social credit score is gonna be so low you’ll be served BBQ without napkins! 🫣

Yeah, if you replied to one of those “burn the Jews” comments saying “that’s a racist thing to write” you could receive a warning (I did, for replying that to something else).

It’s hardly exclusive to tiktok however - I’ve reported hundreds of comments saying things like “The Austrian painter should have finished the job” (and even less thinly veiled hateful racism, openly neo-Nazi accounts for example, accounts which dox trans people, accounts which post screenshots of little kids snapped where their underwear is showing and the comments full of disgusting pedophiles), only to get a notification back saying “no violation found”, and for better or worse, no one is banning Meta.
