There's really no point in continuing this, but again, I use Reddit. I see these posts all the time. I'm not saying no one ever gets their posts removed or banned from communities or whatever, but they're insanely popular to the point someone like me who uses the platforms every few days sees it all the time.

That crazy, because that's exactly what I'm saying. And yet we're stuck here with you calling me a liar.

Why do I do this to myself.

On Reddit, your account would be banned for contributing to an anti-social atmosphere after two dozen corporate accounts red-flagged this image and reported it to the PR staffer currently operating as the subs moderator.

This implies every post of this kind gets the user banned on Reddit. That is verifiably false. If that were true or even common enough, these posts wouldn't be as incredibly popular on Reddit as they are. Shifting your argument so you can pretend we agree is insane behaviour.

And no, I had never called you a liar until this point. I don't assume people are liars - extreme world views often lead people to have biased interpretations of reality, but that doesn't make them inherently evil or liars. Now you are lying, though.
