Mods at reddit banned me, and shadowbanned my new account. They are censoring us over at /r/conspiracy ( pizzagate )

submitted by djklbd

The other day I made a post on /conspriacy titled A message to the pizzagate deniers that made it to the front page. Hours later, i was banned permanently from the sub.

I had been posting on /r/conspiracy for years, and the mods threw 3 strikes at me for "personal attacks" in a span of less than 10 days. They are arbitrarily using personal attacks as a way to ban members who discuss pizzagate on /r/conspiracy . I'm just posting this to raise awareness of what is happening over there.

I did my best to try and oust the shills, and luckily Pizzagate stuff still seems to dominate the front page over there, we are still openly discussing it, despite the army of CTR that has infiltrated the sub.

Like I said, I'm just posting this to raise awareness of what is happening over there. We are doing something right, or they wouldn't be trying to censor us. Guess i'll just be primarily on Voat from now on.

EDIT: I took a long shot and appealed my case, so they lowered it to a 7 day ban. PS, is anybody actually buying this Assange proof of life shit in regard to his Hannity interview?

youhavetogoback123

how are they able to shadowban if you mask an IP

tjarco

can you provide screenshots that they banned you - asking because relevance to https://voat.co/v/pizzagate/1482030

Sure man, not sure what the difference would be (not a tech autist like some of you may be), I can only take them from my phone. My hard drive on my mac is destroyed, but I found a loophole where I am still able to access the internet (only certain sites) through the "Get Help Online" option on the main menu when your hard drive crashes. So, If anyone else wants to see proof of this, hollar at me.

Watching Reddit censor this is sad. Why is it happening? Why can they talk about any other conspiracy... just not this one? I feel weird even posting here.

You have only yourself to blame for still being using Reddit after all that happened over the last few weeks. That's what you get for closing your eyes about censorship.

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Socialist. Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Trade Unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

I've been on voat since r/rpizzagate shut down, but i've also been posting on /r/ conspiracy. Whats wrong with taking advantage of both platforms to reach a larger audience?

MurrueLaFlaga

There is nothing wrong with it. The people who want us to ignore reddit's audience don't realize (or they do, because they are shills) they are falling precisely for divide and conquer tactics. From my comment here ( https://www.reddit.com/r/C_S_T/comments/5idzes/fuck_this_website_im_done/): :)

Divide and conquer.

They've separated us into little boxes and thusly, people have compartmentalized themselves amongst each other...unable to see the forest for the trees...

Don't get separated into yet another box. Also, might I ask which mods banned you, if you know? You don't have to reply with their full names...I'm familiar with them.

djklbd

Ok let me see if I can dig the guys' name up. And great post by the way, I agree with you.

EDIT: Guys name is "sabramesh". Thanks to whoever posted this thread on /r/conspiracy for me.

He must be on here, becuse he posted this today:

For the record /u/djklbd was banned for repeatedly calling other users who didn't share his views about pizzagate, "pedophiles" and "idiots" (Rule 4) and he also called several PG dissenters "shills" (Rule 10). He doesn't fit the normal profile of a banned user because he posted some good content, but this is good demonstration that even if your heart is in the right place, if you repeatedly abuse other users on this sub, the mods will lose patience with you. Furthermore, reddit site rules stipulate that if a user has been banned from a sub, they are not allowed to simply create a new username and start posting the same stuff to the same sub. This is known as ban evasion and the admins can and will block your IP address if you try it. Finally, if a mod bans you on /r/conspiracy , you have a right of appeal to the mod team as a whole. If you have previously demonstrated that you offer something of value to the sub, and you make your case reasonably, you will get a fair hearing. Thus far /u/djklbd has not bothered to do this, despite me telling him earlier that this option is available to him.

Is there anyway an appeal would be possible? Would anything come from it?

MurrueLaFlaga

I mean, yes, I would still try to appeal if I were you. You simply shouldn't slander other users without proof that they are pedophiles or whatever. It's disingenuous and as a whole, will detract from your argument. People will be less likely to believe you if you come across as a name-caller. That's all. There are ways to make your argument without losing your head.

djklbd

I feel you, and I actually did get it reduced to a 7 day ban thankfully.

LawofTruth

Well VOAT is nice and welcoming. Fuck Reddit and Twitter.

jangles

Become a 'Goat' and Voat! Good community except some of the bots and CTR.

VictorSteinerDavion

/r/conspiracy was co-opted years ago.

To think actual conspiracy discussion is encouraged there is to think wtc7 fell over on it's own.

WellSetTable

STOP USING REDDIT

djklbd

Well think about it dude, Pizzagate is getting a lot of attention over there on some of the subs. There are well over 400,000 subscribers there and at least 800 people online at all times. And sometimes, pizzagate posts reach r/all , which is an even larger audience. I'm just taking advantage of all the people coming in and out of that place, all the newcomers, trying to at least plant some seeds. It's worth a shot.

WellSetTable

Reddit is not the only place. They don't deserve the attention . I'm not dogging you . Voat is becoming more popular GAB is as well. You Tube can't keep up with all of the Pizza Gate videos.

Chempergrill

Yep. All my new accounts get shadowbanned, too. Mentioned this subverse before it happened.

Kal

So what you're telling us is that it's business as usual on reddit? Thanks for the heads up.

betadynamique

They're hoping to push your buttons, you know. Did you notice the false flag? Select an individual, develop a profile, push all the right buttons, emotional overload, next thing you know you've got a crazed gunman at Comet Ping Pong. See how that works? We can't have websites broadcasting Russian propaganda signals into local vicinities in the United States anymore, though. Always remember, God is watching You.

djklbd

Lol, they would never get me to do that. I would never do anything like that to bring negative attention.

RedPowerRanger

kek. He's one of us now >:D

djklbd

Lol did this happen to you as well?

RedPowerRanger

A lot of people have been migrating over to v/pizzagate from reddit of late. Each posting their own ban experience. I guess in essence v/pizzagate started as a reddit refugee thread

djklbd

This is fucking bullshit. I like to post pizzagate shit on reddit because there is a WAY bigger audience over there with 400,000 subscribers. These guys are fucking up, is there anything that can be done about this? It's not a HUGE deal, but it's very annoying. I could care less about my "karma", but i started a new account and I have to wait 10 minutes between posts to post or comment again, and I think they shadow banned my new account, so I can't accumulate enough karma to break past that "10 minute" post barrier...

Fuck reddit, but it's a shame to let that sub get taken over by CTR. I just don't want to let that happen, so i'll probably make a few new accounts and just use them or something....I dunno.

THE_LIES_OH_THE_LIES

They are owned by the people we are fighting. Give it time. You will be pleasantly surprised.

RedPowerRanger

'eddit's gone Orwells 1984 on us. It's a significant deal but users will go else where. Steem.it is theoretically un-censurable
