Can't have nuanced discussions about certain topics on Reddit, even if its from a work of fiction.

Yeah, I still use Reddit alongside the fediverse for certain community types and topics where the Fediverse lacks. I'm not one to usually share this type of thing, as it can come across as whiny - but this one to me is absurd.

So I recently made a post here regarding a conclusion I had made concerning the hive and what they would do if asked. I made the thread specifically as a response to those across the website who claim that what a specific character within the show is doing is acceptable because the hive consents to him doing it. If you go and read the topic, you can see what my argument was by the replies.

At no point was I intimating that the hypothetical was a good thing, and even expressedly said it would be awful multiple times (that would be awful was the specific point of my post) - but by the show's logic, it would happen. It was meant as a challenge to those who defend this character and how they rationalise and justify his conduct.

Someone reported the post and it got removed. I have appealed this and it was upheld. Here's the message from Reddit.

So I am very much not happy about being smeared as a predator by Reddits reporting system.
