Reddit Starts Banning Users For Their Upvotes



Conde Nast's Reddit on Sunday started issuing temp bans against users for upvoting wrongthink.

Reddit announced in February that users "who consistently upvote policy-breaking content within quarantined communities will receive automated warnings, followed by further consequences like a temporary or permanent suspension."

The level of censorship required to keep Reddit a far-left echo chamber is rather remarkable. They've banned every "far-right" subreddit in existence since 2016 and banned r/The_Donald through a mod takeover earlier this year.

I use to get on Reddit occasionally but could never comment on much because I had too much "negative karma". I finally deleted my account like I did with Facebook and others.

I was banned several years ago and glad I was. I'll not waste another second of my life on trash fit for dumpster fire.
