    I might check your reddit history though, when I get to my computer, a long history like that would be much stronger evidence.

    Yep, I was known as UniversalMonkArtist on there. I got banned because I posted a Green Party article in the r/poltics sub. Even tho it’s supposed to be a neutral sub about general politics, they didn’t like me posting an article that wasn’t pro-Democrats. So I got banned. Then permabanned when I created a different username.

    I quickly just created a new username, using VPN, which worked fine. But after a bit, I realized that I did not want to be part of a platform that literally banned me because I posted a news article about the green party.

    In fact, it was the same first article that I posted to this community with no issues (except for the hate I receive–haha)

    And you can also see the subs I created/moderated there, and you can see that I have been migrating many of those subs and posts to Lemmy. No quick way, I have to do it post by post. But totally worth it to be free of the over-reacting censor-friendly Reddit mods.

    I’ve presented my evidence, and you are welcome to come to your own conclusions.

    And I did come to my own conclusions. And I will continue voting for Jill Stein.

      I’ll take a look, thank you.

      Yes, some community mods over there can be a little on the extreme side. We’re not immune to that over here, certainly, it’ll always be a potential problem on any platform moderated by volunteers. But federation at least gives the ability to find a local instance and admin team that more closely aligns with one’s preferences.

      In the meantime, I doubt anyone will ban you for posting Green news, regardless of how we may feel about Jill Stein specifically. We even get flat-out pro-Russian war propaganda on here sometimes, the hardcore stuff no less.
