I thought it would be fun if we all shared our story for why we were banned from r/Canada or r/CanadaPolitics
I was banned from r/Canada for this post:
"Ah, you're finally catching onto the fact that equality is just sanctioned oppression against competent cis gendered straight white males."
This was in relation to someone's comment about how indigenous get special treatment in Canada and that Canadians don't actually want true equality.
I asked the mods what rule I violated and this was their response:
"Considering you don't want anyone to be 'equal' to 'cis gendered straight white males' then the answer is pretty obvious. You're a white supremacist."
I got banned from r/CanadaPolitics for saying White Nationalism was different than White Supremacy. I mean, the two even have different wikipedia articles that clearly explains the difference but apparently this was enough to get me banned.
Don't know why anyone expects any level of competency from (supposedly) volunteer moderators.
It's kind of insane that our society just accepts that random anonymous Internet users should dictate what is and is not acceptable for political debate.
We shouldn't even be furthering the conversation of those that use the "white" part. Nationalism is nationalism, doesn't matter what color you are if you love your country and want the best for it...
