I’ve confirmed this with multiple accounts now. If you promote the 2nd amendment, including training responsibly with others, your account will be autobanned within 60 seconds.
To be clear, my comments contained exactly zero calls to violence. They were simple comments stating every American has the right to arm themselves and that everyone should train responsibly, ideally with others who are more experienced.
I’ve had 4 or 5 accounts autobanned within a minute now. All immediately after posting pro 2nd amendment comments. These accounts were anywhere from 1 week to multiple months old. So they’re not brand new accounts that are being flagged for whatever reason.
Reddit is now complicit in the fascist takeover of our nation.
EDIT: Been testing some more with a 2 week old account. Discovered that Reddit is also autobanning accounts that use the word “guillotine”. I left a comment that literally only consisted of the word “guillotine”, no other context at all, and within 30 seconds I was auto-suspended for 3 days.
If the mod who was in here telling people I was lying with no proof whatsoever, and who also lied about testing my methods, would like to test this out, or lie about testing it out, that would be great.
And, for the record, my username for the account just suspended actually has the word “Guillotine” in it. So apparently their bots don’t screen usernames. Just contents of comments, and I’m assuming posts. I don’t bother posting on Reddit, so I don’t know about that one.
As I originally stated, Reddit is complicit in the fascist takeover of our nation.
r/gunsforsale used to be a thing.
Fucking shouldn’t be. Unregulated private sales are a problem.
Nah, I bought a couple things on there and did a federal background check every time. It’s the law. If I didn’t do that, I’d be a criminal.
There is no law requiring background checks for private sales, they’re unregulated.
For law-abiding citizens, yes. Those prohibited from buying guns can’t do private sales. Otherwise it’s a crime.
Well that depends on many things actually, this isn’t exactly true.
In the case of sites like reddit, it’s mostly through mail, meaning it would have to be mailed from an FFL to one near you where they do a background check. If it’s in person, that still depends on state laws, some allow it, some allow rifles but handguns must be NICS checked, in some states it must go through NICS.
