tl;dr: screw reddit. Good bye forever (again).

I had to go back to reddit about a year ago to promote local mutual aid organizations and protest groups. I had turned my "since 2008" account into nothing but over the top abuse aimed at u/spez and vulture capitalism during the RiF debacle. I made a new account and engaged a little bit. I commented now and then, because you have to have minimal amounts of activity to post on some of the local subreddits.

Two days ago, I got flagged by automoderator for mocking a conservative on r/politics. I apparently had like 8 hours to tell the mods I was sorry, but I had no idea I'd been flagged, because I hardly go on reddit so I didn't know. They gave me a three month ban and when I messaged them to be like "why was I banned?" because it didn't make sense to me... I hadn't done anything that objectionable, a mod very condescendingly told me "You had 8 hours to respond to the complaint, but didn't avail yourself of the opportunity. You may protest the ban in 3 months." I seriously messaged them back with "enjoy your enshittification train to corporate town."
