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.
Who gives a shit?
People who don’t like Reddit
You.
Wth 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Welcome to Lemmy
Local man plays in traffic, gets hit by car.
Sorry, I guess I’m victim blaming, but get the fuck off that site, and use a real legit stock trading utility while you’re at it
A blatantly criminal company run by questionable fuckers surprises everyone by creating the most sus moderating rules imaginable.
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.
Are you actually shocked that a newly IPO’ed company (run by a known sex pest) doesn’t want to pick a fight with an openly crooked brokerage?
I dont see how they forced you to go to the sub or use their shit
What are you talking about?
Just another form of victim blaming essentially.
There’s no logic to it but it feels good for people like them to write.
So, you went to a subreddit dedicated to information about a specific website, and insulted everyone who uses that website.
What were you expecting? For the whole sub to stand up and applaud, and cancel their Robinhood accounts?
I’m not saying your statement is wrong, but your comment was toxic and unnecessary.
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.
Maybe don’t hang out on a toxic website.
Haha thanks. “I was today years old” when I found out about Lemmy.World
Welcome to Lemmy, glad you’re here. :)
Thanks! I’m excited that there’s finally a decent alternative to Reddit.
