I was banned on reddit for sexualizing children. I said that the fact you can show murdered children but not bathing children on US television is a sign of cultural mental illness.

I guess parents in the US make their children wear a swimsuit when bathing them?



I was banned on Reddit for simply calling out a Reddit admin on my own profile. I keep trying to appeal it, but they don't care about my 12 years of good faith contributions to dozens of communities, hundreds of dollars given to their company through premium and awards, no the final straw was me simply calling out an admin who was on a power trip, who is also responsible for a PR blunder relatively recently with their place event.

I've lost so much respect for this company and it's actually made me also take a step back from social media in general. All of these companies can abuse you at any point without any transparency, and I'm not willing to take the risk anymore.


I'm convinced Reddit's run by a cast of Monty Python characters, their grasp of how to run an internet community is shockingly poor most of the time.


It's a bit more complicated. Murder on TV is pretend, but nudity is real. Even if you think nudity is ok, showing it needs all parties to consent and we decided that children can't give consent to such things.


Ok, so let's have deep fake nudity instead. The child actors will at all times be wearing a whole body cgi suit.

Somehow I doubt Americans will be any more ok with this pretend nudity than actual nudity.
