I have reservations on that statement for a few reasons (mainly because I think it makes the nazi problem worse in some respects) but I 100% don’t think that deserves a ban and the general gist is fair. Any sort of bigot generally has not received a taste of their own medicine and lacks the empathy to learn form abstraction.
For my case I received a 3-day sitewide ban for saying, “Fun fact: the immune system synthesizes hydrogen peroxide at infection sites which signals a wider immune response,” and cited 2 science articles. Cited for harassment… lol??
Later, r/news mods (shady fucks who I suspect are compromised with right-wing extremists) banned me without citing a comment or reason. Eventually I made an alt account months later and got perma-banned for ban-evasion (I didn’t try to hide it), and get this, with them citing the previous bullshit suspension as a first-strike which I tried to appeal and they ignored.
Edit: Like the name, by the way. Love Lost Keys / Rosetta Stoned.
