i got booted from Reddit for saying "fuck Ukraine" in respose to some idiot praising a Van Gogh painting for "having the colors of the Ukraine flag". It was my third strike on Reddit. After explaining to the moderator of that particular sub that I was just irritated at the idea of politics creeping into art apreciation (and the fact that the painting in question was painted 100 years before Ukraine was a country), they recinded my strike, but too late apparently- still banned. I get a cute little red hammer emoji next to my name when I try to log on, which I haven't bothered trying to do for 8 or 9 months now.
You got banned for being obnoxious. Which you know, and get off on. For the good of the fediverse I hope you grew up a bit in those 8/9mos. Trolling is boring for everyone but you.
Just being obnoxious isn't a crime, but that's not enough of a reason to get a ding. I've seen way worse comments to others and to myself from assholes on reddit who never got banned. "fOr ThE sAkE oF tHe FeDiVeRse, I dO dEcLaIr..." seriously with this shit? This place is already turning into Reddit. Apparently trolling isn't boring for you yet, huh?
The internet is not a court of law. Go outside.
