So if anyone here has been following all the recent posts that I have made on r/DebateVaccines over the past 3 months, I was perma-banned from that sub yesterday based on the total bs charge of "Ban evasion."

submitted by stickdog from (self.WayOfTheBern)

In addition, whichever mod banned me also blocked my ability to respond directly to him or her.

The only reason give in the ban was:

Note from the moderators:

Ban evasion

Here is the post I made the directly preceded this ban and that was temporarily censored my the moderators buit has now been restored.

Here is the message that I sent the /r/DebateVaccines moderator team:

I think that I was banned from this sub based on a complete misunderstanding.

The reason given was "ban evasion," which makes no sense because I have never posted in this sub (or anywhere on reddit) using a different account than my only (stickdog99) account.

Those who would like to see me banned falsely accused me of using more than one account because I referred to a quote from the scientists in paper I linked in my OP that I had used as the title of my OP as "the OP heading". The point I was trying to make was that the quote that I had used as the title of my OP was understated. I used the term "the OP heading" to refer to the scientists' quote that I had used to title my OP. While this may have been confusing, I assure you that I did not break any rules, and I have never used any other reddit handle here or on any other reddit sub.

However, those who want me banned from this sub because they disagree with my views used this misunderstanding as an excuse to falsely accuse me of having more than one reddit account.

I don't have more than one reddit account, and I have never, ever been banned from this sub before this misunderstanding.

So could you please rescind this spurious ban based on a simple misunderstanding?

Does anybody have any advice for me about how to proceed beyond this appeal to the mods? Thanks.

Mainstream platforms are hostile to common sense.

Another interesting thing about this is that until very recently, I was able to see the entire list of moderators for the DebateVaccine website. Now, that list has been hidden from me.

Instead of the previous list of roughly a dozen moderators that used to appear, not all I see in a single button "MESSAGE THE MODS", and all the individual mod accounts have been blocked from my view.

Is this a reddit feature that normally goes into effect with any permaban, or is this special for me?

I think it's normal with a ban, but my S4P ban was a long time ago, my memory is fuzzy :)

Compromised subs with compromised mods using bullshit excuses to ban dissenters however, that's always clear :)

Not much to do as far as I know, other than actually evading the ban, though the saner option is probably to just put that sub on the shit list and drop it.

Thanks for the reply.

Well, I was just unbanned there, so I should really get rid of this post, but I am going to leave it up as shameless self-promotion for anyone who misses my previous incessant posting of scientific critiques of constant COVID injections.

Until further notice, you can find all the most recent COVID injection news that's pfit to print here.
