I was recently banned from the subreddit, r/Robinhood for making a comment about Robinhood’s shady practices. I quoted their own rule, “Don’t be you”, calling them hypocrites, and received a 7 day ban from Reddit the following day.

How can we draw attention to Reddit supporting a subreddit whose very rules promote and protect intolerance and harassment?

I encourage you to message Reddit directly and report this community.

    I guess I’m confused because there’s a lot of circlejerking about conservatives and their ideaologoes in this community, and this “Don’t be you” rule falls in line with the exact same anti-LGBTQ2A+ rhetoric that conservatives follow.

    Bringing attention to a community that promotes and protects intolerance seems like something this community would be interested in, but I can understand if you just want to move on like a bad breakup.

      Here at lemmy.world?

      As far as I know, the fediverse, in general, is mostly center/slightly left, not counting things like the socialist, commie, or tankie instances.

      Also, some of the big ones are fairly USA centered and it’s a general election year. So, everyone is fighting about it. But the fact that it’s a fight means there is more than one opinion.

      If you’re complaining about Reddit, idk what to tell you. I haven’t been there in ages.

        I was referring to this Leftist sub specifically being interested in trying to shut down an intolerant, toxic, conservative leaning community. Maybe this is better suited for a social justice community, but I haven’t found one. Do you know any?

          I must have missed that. Most just talk about ignoring or defederating.

          I haven’t looked for any social justice centered instances. I’m mostly here to find memes and I won’t go to toxic sites like iFunny or Reddit to get them anymore.
