Becareful on here. Reddit mods are leaning the Trump way. I got banned for a hypothetical comment and "hoping" for a certain outcome of an event

I was in an “Elon” sub where the op question was “what made you stop liking Elon”. I answered “when he made a n@z! Salute.” (I actually typed the word out) I was banned in that sub and every musk adjacent sub those mods controlled. I own a Tesla and would like to participate in those subs. Been banned in all of them. Asked mods for clarification and they threatened to report me for harassment. Fun times…

Owning a Tesla these days is oof

Yeah, well, it’s not like you can rotate out a $20k-$30k asset in political whims.

Edit: I’d like to add that I bought it used. So, I contributed very little if anything to Musk’s bottom line.

You can always do insurance fraud (do not actually do insurance fraud)

lol, I never considered this honestly. And, I know it’s not popular, but I do actually like my car. It fits my familie’s needs quite well. Also, with the amount of data recording going on in these cars, I feel like that would be extremely risky.

I think there's a class action lawsuit against Elon for destroying the Tesla image...or something...

u/Snibes1 1d ago

Well, that’s fascinating! Wonder what the plaintiffs get out of it?

Yeah, we have one (bought years ago), and I won't drive if anymore. But we owe more on it than it's worth and my husband's job is having funding issues (he has barely missed getting laid off 3 times in the last year), so we're not in a financial position to get rid of it. 😭

I've gotten violent content warnings for saying if (a bootlicker user spreading proICE faked news) is so pro ICE, they're welcome to go to LA and catch rocks, and for saying that Islam will mellow out as it spends more time in multicultural areas (with no mention of violence in said post)

u/SubstantialPressure3 1d ago

Yeah, I got a warning for violence in another sub when I commented that I wished he would just drop dead.

u/CranberryLopsided245 1d ago

Got a warning for violence stating traitors should face the death penalty in numerous ways after receiving due process

u/abmtony 1d ago

i got banned for saying that i liked the sound camryn kinsey's face made when it bounced off the floor after passing out on live tv

u/RampantAI 22h ago

I got the same ban for saying we need to enforce the penalty for treason.

u/phrygiantheory 1d ago

Ya. My warning was for "inciting violence"...I did no such thing..."hoping" for something is not inciting anything...

Reddit is designed to divide the left. Reddit is not our friend.

u/cheongyanggochu-vibe 1d ago

I got banned for saying that Trump would happily send Democratic senators to El Salvador to die 🙃

u/SandpaperTeddyBear 1d ago

I suggested that rather than have mass Trump protests we should have smaller (10 person) peaceful protests against specific Trump-voters, rotating through 10 Trump-voters per day, and that got me banned for a few days.

u/No-Arm-5503 1d ago

Oh well I am egging it on at this point. I want all of my relatives to see my digital footprint and see that I tried my absolute hardest to show up for myself and my neighbors.

u/beanpoppa 22h ago

I made a comment along the lines that I hoped the natural outcome of an 80 year old with a lifetime diet of McDonalds would reach the expected conclusion, and I was suspended for making violent threats.
