Why was my question about my ban deleted? in Feedback & Suggestions ·
Larry Walker24, you running this place?

I guess this question is for the big shots in charge.....

But it looks like they can't give a straight answer, right?

Or maybe they just prefer deleting posts?

So, nothing? No answer?

Why was my question about my ban deleted? in Feedback & Suggestions ·
A few days ago, I asked why I was banned from the Corona forums back in the spring. I was told I wasn't actually banned, just partially restricted.

Then I asked what kind of restriction it was and why, and they just deleted my question.

Why?

What is going on here?

Regardless of personal views, Reddit aims to stay neutral and socially responsible. It doesn't matter what you say, it’s about how you say it. We want everyone to be able to speak their mind. But things have gotten really difficult there lately, because the "dialogue" just goes in circles and makes no sense. It's aggressive and toxic. It’s turned into a playground for activists instead of a place for regular people who actually want to talk about COVID.

The issue has always been "censorship, echo chambers, totalitarianism, Stalinism, terror"... But if you offer freedom without any moderation, then suddenly it's bad because of "ghettoization and segregation"...

Look, just tell me, what do you people actually want?

If you realize the mods or admins don't like your take and you can't talk them into changing their minds, you've got choices: either play along, stop talking about that specific topic, or just move to a different sub-forum. It's really not that deep. Even Reddit has enough variety to find a corner for everyone.


Yeah, sure, self-censorship is just great. Honestly, it's way better than actual censorship...

Nice...... 🤣

Did you come up with this yourself, or did some whole trust of 'geniuses' work on something this 'perceptive' and 'witty'

Maybe post this on the meme thread.... we definitely need more of this high-level intellect there.....😁

coppersailor28 said:Man, we just can't seem to shake this proverbial narrow-mindedness of ours.

Are you quoting another political commissar, one who wisely advocates for progress against the kulaks and reactionary citizens?
Or did you just make that up while listening to a political commissar drone on about progress and advancement versus the kulaks and reactionary citizens?

Jesse Bailey91 said:So the censorship goes so far that posts having absolutely nothing to do with the coronavirus just "vanish"?
.

It’s not like they actually think, I guess.
If you push back against the official narrative on a coronavirus thread, you get flagged... and then everything else starts getting wiped out too.

Doesn't matter if it makes sense or not....

That's just how totalitarianism works.....
Some uneducated political operative just carries out orders from the central committee, whether those orders make any sense at all or not.
He isn't there to think; he's just following orders....
🍿

Get used to it.....

Jesse Bailey91 said:I can't access the Coronavirus PDF, and now searches on this forum are restricted too. I have no clue why about 40 of my posts just vanished from my profile today without any explanation. My signature is gone, and my avatar disappeared too (though maybe that was intentional; could that have triggered heavier censorship?)

Why were my on-topic posts removed from the thread "Why did you ban the Coronavirus PDF" , while all the off-topic bickering and insults were left up?
Something doesn't add up here, logically speaking.

If the consensus is that my posts don't add value to the forum, then I guess someone in charge should just tell me publicly instead of tearing me down from the shadows.

Look, I'll be the first to admit I'm not exactly a genius. I know I say stupid things sometimes, but I really didn't expect this kind of total wipeout.

You aren't the only one.
It feels like blatant censorship to me.
☕

Just look at a few previous threads in this same subforum.

So that would be... I guess.Exactly.' How've you been? I guess. And I replied.I guess you should have figured that out before you even asked me the question. 🤷

Why on earth did you go and do that to me? He didn't even ask. I guess. What is @XmoronX?2+2=3 What I meant was, Whatever, man. I guess I'll just answer. Maybe. How? I have no clue what he was trying to say.Even you, I guess. I guess you're right. Maybe.?!...
...and they said it with the words...Exactly.'!!

For instance, from my own... 'Exactly.I guess there's a reason for that. Maybe. I'm not even going to bother asking you why you're calling him a poet. Why? Whatever. '2+2=3' Not me either, I guess. It doesn't really feel like... I guess.Math. Maybe? Maybe just prose.'...

I guess my previous answer pretty much covers that.

"And as for that whole "if a poet knows what they meant" thing... I guess maybe. You should probably get in touch with Robin Clark. Personally, I guess...."

That "poet" thing was obviously aimed at your comment, and as for him saying 2+2=3... well, I guess that's pretty freaking obvious.
To everyone who just wants to stay quiet... I guess they can go ahead. Maybe.

Of course, that won't make sense to people who believe 2+2=3, just because the authorities told them so... I guess.

I have zero clue what you mean by (if we're using your wording) 'a poet trying to say something'!

Exactly.....

But did you actually want to make a point?
Just so it doesn't look like you have nothing to say?

coppersailor28 said:So, what am I supposed to follow, @brightsailor17 now? 🤔

Follow
"'guy, get a job,' since you think 'suppression and censorship' counts as a punishment"?

Or maybe
"if you call 'suppression and censorship' a punishment, then fine"?

And, what was the poet actually trying to say?
Does the poet even know what they meant?
🤔

There’s that old quote from Plato about people who speak because they have something to say versus people who speak just because they want to be heard.

PS:
I'm guessing you've at least heard of the wise old guy Plato?

But then how would they feel important?

coppersailor28 said:Maybe our friend @wearybison63 is happy with that 'explanation'—who knows...
...but I'm definitely not.

With that pathetic little attempt to dig yourself out of the hole you dug for yourself , you've basically become totally suspicious !

And how on earth can YOU be so sure it was just 'technical issues,' huh?!

[/SIZE]


What an idiot, what a joke... what have you actually cooked up now?
Probably got an IQ somewhere between 70 and 90....

Paul Newman86 said:Why did you guys ban me from the Coronavirus subforum?

You aren't the only one...
The exact same thing happened to hundreds of other people.

It’s censorship—though they won't call it that. They call it "moderators ensuring a fair exchange of information."
🙄

They’re just "protecting" readers from info that might be harmful.
Because clearly, the readers are idiots who can't think for themselves. That's why the moderators have to step in and explain everything.
🤦

Just listen to whatever the mainstream media tells you, damn it!

That's exactly how the central committee would put it.

There are already several posts about this further down, but they've all been locked up....

Wow, what a deep and intellectual response!
Classic....
Some little wannabe Nazi from the neighborhood finally feels powerful and thinks he actually matters....

Should we bring back lockdowns? in Coronavirus ·
Morgan Peterson said:How can anyone still be scratching their head wondering why certain posts seem to vanish into thin air? I feel it is absolutely necessary to remind everyone of a specific subforum rule that was implemented back on January 26, 2021: Comparing anti-epidemic measures to genocide, Nazism, or any other similar atrocities will henceforth be subject to stricter penalties.

--------------
it'll be more strictly punished.

What, by firing squads?
Or just through fact-check censorship?

What a Nazi-style atrocity!
