I posted this yesterday:

And apparently this warrants a instant permaban.

They don’t even tell you what rule it breaks. Which one do you think it might break?

In any case, every time I visit Reddit and look at my local subs (Montréal, Québec or Canada) I look at the comments and they’re absolutely vile. The community has become so fucking toxic it’s unbearable. And I also realized how my mental health actually improved since I left that community.

They can keep the permaban. I don’t give a shit anymore. I’m so over that god forsaken place.

Peace out.

Quick update:

I contancted the mods and apparently I was permabanned for spamming and they immediately muted me so I wouldn’t be able to message the mods any further. I can understand that it can be considered spamming, but I feel they’re being extremely harsh over this. They really have no chill.

/r/canada is a cesspit with a white nationalist mod.

The sane Canadians always stuck to /r/onguardforthee

Man I can’t believe this shit’s coming over here now…

OGFT is not “the sane one” it’s controlled opposition. Their mods protect known trolls including that one that dominates their subreddit with dozens of articles that nobody ever reads. The only actual content on that subreddit is meta drama designed to rope people in. Yet still despite all of that you still have people repeating “they’re the sane ones” every single time r/cananda comes up, because it’s all they have.

Read the place as an anti-advertisement for [nazi subreddit redacted] and it makes more sense what they’re doing.

Well, it sure as shit ain’t /r/canada. Perhaps it’s neither.

Left /r/canada because all of the racially/bigotry motivated posts I was seeing.

Got banned from ogft for suggesting that racially/bigotry motivated posts aren’t excused when the target is the group you decide is the “bad group.” and that saying such a thing is not advocating defense of the bad actors on the other side doing the same thing.

I guess just looking for a place to discuss Canadian things without people attacking others for their body they were born into, or things they otherwise have no control over is just a pipe dream.

Imagine treating unique individuals as unique individuals, and not defining them or yourself entirely by the bodies you were born into.

Im sorry my opinions are so spicy.

You broke the site wide rules by advertising a competing service, not the subreddit’s rules. It’s surprising the ban didn’t extend site wide.

Seriously? So if you talk about joining Facebook or Twitter or any other social network you get permabanned site wide?

You could be. I’m not saying it’s justified, but it is a rule on the site as a whole that users are not permitted to advertise other platforms. It’s their way of fucking their users just a little more, because they can try and justify anything they want because it’s in the TOS you agree to when signing up.
