"Don't be you" - Reddit is supporting a community that is dangerous and promotes intolerance; r/Robinhood
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’m just shocked that either nobody has brought it to the attention of Reddit, or Reddit doesn’t care despite violating their own rules and especially this recent IPO.
They don't care unless it embarrasses them. They did nothing about /r/jailbait until it got news attention, and similar things have happened over and over again.
You must have missed the details in my post. My issue with Reddit is not the ban from the sub. Totally expected when I “kicked the hornet nest.”
My issue is that Reddit as a whole banned me for allegedly violating a rule that is being clearly violated within the rules of a subreddit. The hypocrisy is the issue.
