I’ve confirmed this with multiple accounts now. If you promote the 2nd amendment, including training responsibly with others, your account will be autobanned within 60 seconds.

To be clear, my comments contained exactly zero calls to violence. They were simple comments stating every American has the right to arm themselves and that everyone should train responsibly, ideally with others who are more experienced.

I’ve had 4 or 5 accounts autobanned within a minute now. All immediately after posting pro 2nd amendment comments. These accounts were anywhere from 1 week to multiple months old. So they’re not brand new accounts that are being flagged for whatever reason.

Reddit is now complicit in the fascist takeover of our nation.

EDIT: Been testing some more with a 2 week old account. Discovered that Reddit is also autobanning accounts that use the word “guillotine”. I left a comment that literally only consisted of the word “guillotine”, no other context at all, and within 30 seconds I was auto-suspended for 3 days.

If the mod who was in here telling people I was lying with no proof whatsoever, and who also lied about testing my methods, would like to test this out, or lie about testing it out, that would be great.

And, for the record, my username for the account just suspended actually has the word “Guillotine” in it. So apparently their bots don’t screen usernames. Just contents of comments, and I’m assuming posts. I don’t bother posting on Reddit, so I don’t know about that one.

As I originally stated, Reddit is complicit in the fascist takeover of our nation.

    Ah, encore une chose-- I think it hugely likely that their internal analytics (similar to rrc.fyi, reveddit.com, snoosnoop.com, etc) must also play a role.

    So more than just acct age, karma and keywords, they probably keep a running ‘quality user’ score that likely factors in to such decisions. You can see examples of what that might look like via those links above. So I’m thinking that a high-karma, old acct with high quality user score probably has more leeway to deal in risky-type keywords.

    In any event, they’re a big company with millions of users to manage, so no matter what, they surely have a bunch of fairly complex algorithms to do much of the heavy lifting in terms of site-wide moderation.
