    I said something similar on r/politics on Reddit and they banned me for homophobia. I was like WTF?

      I feel like there must be a lot of context missing there.

        There really wasn’t. I said kids need sex education at a young age so they know what a ‘bad touch’ is and I was banned for homophobia out of the blue. And when I tried to get a clarification, they muted me.

            Okay, what context would you like?

              The text of your comment that got you banned

                Sorry, I don’t have a photographic memory. Suffice it to say, it didn’t mention LGBT+ people in any context, which is why it was out of the blue.

                  Huh? Just look at it and copy and paste it!

                  Not that I really care, I’m just saying that’s the context that would be useful.

        The context is that the mods of r/politics have long had a reputation for being inconsistent and erratic in various ways.

        Obviously I don’t actually know the full context, but it strikes me as utterly plausible given the likelihood of a report by someone who disagreed with them and a mod team prone to shooting from the hip

        The context is that reddit is run by nazi sympathizers.
