Take the Alex Berenson approach and sue Reddit.

https://old.reddit.com/report Report them for targeted harassment

It's a Reddit mod. There doesn't have to be a reason behind many of their actions. I do know that reveddit.com has a method for notifying when a comment gets removed even when there's no private message. (I haven't set it up for myself because I haven't had that problem *yet*.) Just out of curiosity about that user that harassed you here, does he moderate multiple communities?

That user needs to be reported for brigading and reported to the admins for acting in bad faith.

We're not your personal army, besides the rules of Reddit strictly forbid brigading. If you trust Reddit to be a perfectly curated news source, then you might want to reevaluate the value you placed in Reddit.

[And mods have the gall to whine about "weaponized" reporting](https://old.reddit.com/r/ModSupport/comments/epn2lp/weaponized_reporting_what_were_seeing_and_what/)

Now I question your judgement if you really believe that targeted harassment from "anti-evil" via removing comments is equivalent to getting banned.

FSW and the mods at WRD have done exactly what he's talking about here. They've made steps to censor and stifle discussion on WRD. The thing FSW claims to fight is exactly what he's doing now. Nothing was being banned, this was just so they could get WRD on an internal ranking list.

That's why we oppose your efforts. You've censored us. I'm disappointed you subscribe to the philosophy that the ends justify the means.
