Comment on: Banned from Reddit and LGBT
Honestly stuff like this is why I just straight up think company should not be allowed to ban people who aren’t calling for violence. If someone’s being a jerk in individuals can block them or individual sub Reddit saw the equivalent communities on other social media websites can banned him from those communities.
But I don’t believe website should be allowed to ban people from their platforms is let’s not pretend like modern day social media isn’t the new public Square.
I myself was also banned permanently on a prior account but I was neither being racist, nor any other form of bigot, nor was I threatening anybody. In fact, I even ended the message with the other individual by telling them to have a nice day. I did not curse or threaten him in anyway at any point during our discussion. And yet I got banned for harassment. The appeal failed as well and I don’t understand why if I was cursing them out or being blatantly racist or something I could at least understand. But if we’re getting to the point where social media companies, Can and will just ban people for having civil disagreements.
Then that’s a really big problem for a public discourse
