LGB ErasureCensorship Thursday - share your sub bans here!

submitted by NutterButterFlutterStill waving into the void[M] from self.LGBDropTheT

Were you a long-time subscriber of r/LGBT or r/ActualLesbians until you stood your ground that sexuality and gender identity are different? Were you called a TERF based on your user history? Did you get banned from other subs merely for being a participant here?

Share your stories! Screenshots are welcome as well.

I had another account on Reddit, on which I used to comment on r / 4chan, r / MakeMyCoffin and r / conspiracy. Last February I got suspended for 3 days. Last Sunday I got suspended for 7 days. Hours later I was told my account got suspended for life. Myriad of draconian reasons, one of them being my comments on transgender people not being the genders they think they are on the 4chan sub.

I got a good one, though it's not LGB or T related. But I don't know who else to tell about it. Apparently Duck Duck Go is going to be down ranking Russian propaganda in its search results. I found out through a post on r/GoldandBlack that called this move "censorship." Keep in mind, the source simply said these results would be pushed down the rankings and not outright eliminated from searches. I was already fed up with this community's right-leaning take on Libertarianism for some time, and this post was my breaking point. I commented "I'm unsubscribing from this subreddit." I was banned less than an hour later. Censorship! It's censorship, I tell you! What a bunch of children.

I haven't been back on Reddit since they started permanently suspending any new accounts I made about 3 months ago lol but I made a new account (using my mobile data instead of wifi), NobleMofoKing, to respond to a post about me and my ex-girlfriend (also a Redditor) made by a chick I was talking to on the side. She blocked my new account, so I'm not using it again lol plus my ex also stopped using Reddit when I was suspended. She said it isn't the same without me. ☺

Oh, the post and comment I made were removed by a mod (the chick likely reported me for harassment lol she's so salty) so I deleted them from my account if any nosy folks wanna see the drama lol I know snitches are itching to report my ass for ban evasion.

Didn't report or comment on the post because if you're trying to be happy I figured why not let you do that. Why would I drag her into a post she most likely wouldn't want to be involved in might as well save everyone the trouble and delete my post. We love being drama free over here you know.

Was called a TERF a lot but I never tried to use those subs because they didn't interest me.

I was booted off 'gaybros' 2'5 yrs back for saying there were about 2 1/2 genders, and then the 'askgaybrosover30' two years ago, but I would not be alone there as the moderator was a nut. Wasn't due to 'TERF' issues.

Too many people I liked on all sorts of subs have been cowed into silence, and that was why I stopped using it then took a long break of no commenting online at all.
