They use IP identification and browser identification.
But the political agenda is so over the top that I rather advice setting up a gaming community here or elsewhere.

    Reddit uses DMR to ID your browser, and in some cases your machine.

      so, virtual machine.... don't use a shared network device, either, but an unique MAC

      *DRM, but yeah, that's absolutely shitty on reddit's part. Even NoScript doesn't help with DRM fingerprinting I believe?

      Maybe via a special browser

      Can't think of anything other than TOR. And TOR isn't the most user-friendly.

      And - creating new accounts to get back into a sub can work against someone who could just as easily apologise and get re-added to the sub. Yes, this is counter intuitive, because a permanent ban should be 'permanent'. But in many cases, an apology, especially after a week or longer, will get a user back into the sub.
