How can you tell you're shadow banned

Short answer r/ShadowBan I didn't even knew that term. It started when I messaged a sub's mod asking if there was something wrong with my posts, because they were being "auto-deleted", marked as spam. The response was I was probably banned/Shadow banned. They attached a screencap of my u/ and it was like I didn't exist. They suggested me to go to appeal and gave me the link. It took me little time to find the above sub. Then I was sure. I appealed, received an automated response that I was caught on a spam filter and now I was unbanned. But I wasn't, still Shadow banned. So I'm just a ghost there, unless I decide to create a new account.

Was it on one of the political subs where they banned you?

AskFeminist I think it was called. I am a feminist. I didn't knew the sub was only for Transgender Activism. I respected all the rules, but they accused me of being "transphobic". I asked where I was being offensive and they didn't answer because I wasn't being transphobic at all! Previous comments were upvoted, even about trans people. So, I was quite confused. This mod said "No transphobia is allowed. No further communication is wanted" iirc. I'm not transphobic, I don't care what other people think about themselves, I have no problem in calling everyone as they want to. After this ban, I asked in some other subs, realized all actual feminists subs were banned for "hate speech" and that the mod who banned me is a mod in all feminist spaces still activr, except one. I think that mod has power and shadowban people like me, because they can't ban me from the whole site without a reason. I knew Reddit had misogynystic subs, but never expected to be expelled from a so-called feminist space for being an actual feminist woman (or biological woman as I should say so I'm not being transphobic, I don't even know if I should add the biological part, is that transphobic?). Doesn't make any sense to me, honestly. Why don't they call themselves Transgenderist or something? Even Trans Feminism would be a better way to define their movement.

I've had a female feminist friend get banned from these places, even though she fully supports them, and all their rules. They found out she was a real women based on her posts, and banned her.

In my opinion, they are angry trancels. Now I know not all trans people are horrible people, but these days these salty individuals flock to reddit, because they allow and like misogynist ideas. I'd just stay clear of the site, not just for these things, but because they censor a lot of things, and ban people/subs for no reason.

Yoooooo so you got mobbed by the transgender borg too?

I didn't knew the sub was only for Transgender Activism

As is twox.

So I've pointed out the issues for women's safety with mixed sex loos etc, only to be mobbed by people saying how we can't penalise men for the criminal offending of some.

I then pointed out about 10% of men have committed a rape by college age, more have sexually harassed women or committed lesser sexual assaults.

And I got banned.

That isn't feminism, it's serving male interests at the expense of women.

I asked in some other subs, realized all actual feminists subs were banned for "hate speech" and that the mod who banned me is a mod in all feminist spaces still activr,

Yep. Basically if you won't accept people like Yaniv are women because they say so, you are an evil alt righter.

Trust me ask the public face to face about this and most of them agree with us. The ones who don't come into two camps:

So hardcore woke they don't care about the female victims.

Those who don't understand what the average transwoman actually is. Most of them think they are all/mostly very effeminate post ops who had childhood dysphoria. It's quite a shock to find out they are mostly straight guys complete with D+B, and if anything slightly higher sex offending rates than normal.

I've been banned from a lot of places for posting the sex offending rates. I had a pro trans sub remove a whole thread where I asked what evidence they had transwomen committed sex offences at a lesser rate.

They were not happy. I had the hard data on my side.
