Some of the groups do go a bit overboard with banning people, and some seem to have quite biased moderators. I can understand some of the removal of posts and comments being a bit heavy handed at time, just because of the difficulty of moderating a large group and the impossibility of stepping on some toes, but going to banning people as a first step is not a good option. Especially if it is people that have contributed to the group in the past, not just a random coming in looking to cause trouble.
I guess it’s the double edges sword of social media though, allowing everyone to contribute tends to lead to trolls and bad actors flooding the group and turning it into shit, but it’s also very easy to destroy a group with excessive moderation destroying the ability to have a free discussion.

You haven’t lived until you’ve been perma-banned from r/recipes 😀

Endorsing cannibalism.

But that’s my go-to whenever anyone argues that veganism is the most sustainable diet. An argument that has also caused me problems on Reddit when I added that for greatest sustainability impact we should start with eating the rich. They got a bit funny about that one.

Calling out bot activity but one of the commenters was probably real. Mods booted me pretty quickly without a warning.
