Someone made a post with a picture of a blonde haired blue eyed child. The title was “Would you slap this child for 88 million dollars?”
I said “Slap!?!?? I would eat that child’s still beating heart for 88 million dollars.”
Next day I log in to find out I had been temp banned for 7 days for sexualization/abuse of a minor.
I uninstalled Reddit. That was 11 days ago and I haven’t been back. Context is important. Obviously, no one is going to offer me 88 million dollars to eat a child’s heart. Not to mention, do you really want to make deals with people that can offer that to you? I mean, I wouldn’t.
All this has led me to realize. I don’t want to be part of a community with no sense of humor.
I would post a link but not only was my comment deleted. The thread was too I think.
I got perma banned on my original account for telling someone to “crawl back in their hole”
Apparently that’s “telling someone to kill themselves”
At least that’s what the power tripping mod told me.
This is my second temporary ban. I have a similar username on Reddit. A couple of people were saying that I was a trash human for having this username. So I told one of them “I love you. I unironically hope you have a long and happy life. I hope that all the good things happen to you.”
That apparently is harassment.
It’s an awesome name. I wonder if people were pissed off about the muhammad part, the Jesus part, or the gay sex part?
Well, it’s weird how each religion chose to interact with me. I have had that account for over 6 years. So, I’ve had quite a bit of experience.
The Muslims were interesting. Mostly, I would get a private message, and someone would politely ask if I would change my name. This happened like 4 or 5 times. They would explain that they found my username offensive, and explain how it wasn’t ok, but in the end would just say it was my choice and go away.
The slightly more serious Muslims would send me a private message to tell me that someone would be relieving me of my head. They would unleash a tirade calling me something horrible. That only happened like 2 times I think.
Christians on the other hand are usually content to pay me no mind. But, when they do feel froggy it’s always very public and more like getting ganked. Several show up it’s a whole thing.
But, I try to avoid those situations. I’m old by internet standards. I really try to spend most of my time. Sharing my old person knowledge and generally trying to be helpful.
I originally made this username as a joke, because my partner took my other username and filled it with porn subs.
