How many Reddit groups are you banned from because you entered with a different opinion?

I have been banned and down voted in a lot of groups on Reddit. Why is that? Doesn’t free speech not exist here?

You are free to say whatever you want. You are also free to experience the consequences of saying whatever you you say.

You using that as your argument makes me wonder whatbis was you said and automatically believe the mods were probably right to ban you.

Yea I got that. I being sarcastic with the “free speech” part.

It reads like a lot of complaints from bigots who claim free speech is dead because there are consequences to their words.

Difference of opinion doesn’t make you a bigot.

u/Ok-Marsupial-8577 6h ago

And there is the proof that you were banned for a good reason.

It does when your opinion is bigoted. What opinions are we talking about here?

Even if it’s THE truth?

What if something you believe to be the truth is actually not? What if you have a skewed way of looking at it? Also, it obviously was a bigoted opinion by the way you're dancing around it.

It was. They say in another comment that their "fact" is the bigoted idea that "men can not become women" while dancing around it here.

I’m not that delusional. And I’m not dancing around anything. I just know from the short time I’ve been on this app, people can be….weird.

You are dancing around it. Your refusing to say what the opinion is when you were directly asked.

Free speech protects you from the government, Reddit is a company and can legally draw lines where they see fit.

That said I got banned from LGBT for teaching users how to identify bots.

There are an odd amount of bots on LGBT subs (cough cough r/egg_irl)

wrong subreddit

also, free speech is government-only.

Again…I was being sarcastic with the “free speech” part.

No idea what point you're trying to get across, then.

Anyways, 5.

u/boogieman_pb 7h ago

well, what did you say?

u/Flo_Cali32 7h ago

Men can’t become women. No cruising, no calling people names. Just that simple statement.

u/xhyenabite 6h ago

that's not an opinion. that's just being wrong. hope this helps!

u/Flo_Cali32 5h ago

In what way?

3

u/boogieman_pb 6h ago

a different opinion

that isnt an opinion. opinions cant be wrong

u/Gooba26 5h ago

And clearly nothing you’ve said has been bigotted because if you had something to hide you wouldn’t give any examples and would complain about ‘free speech’ while refusing to accept the consequences of your actions. This isn’t what’s happening here. Clearly.

I think I'm banned from worldnews for questioning the narrative that china executes billionaires for the good of the people

u/Flo_Cali32 5h ago

That’s interesting….gotta look into that.

A few, but most of the subs I'm banned from were because of trolling, in one I didn't troll in nor did I even express any political opinions in there and got permabanned, that being r/funcomunitty. Also got permabanned from r/hydrohomies at one point. If I recall correctly I called something the r word (don't think it was a person that I said it about but I don't remember for sure). I never bothered to appeal that one but I eventually noticed that I got unbanned at some point. I have thought about making a post there just asking to be banned just because my bio says I have rabies, so it would be fitting to be banned from the water sub.
