Or those subs that delete your comment when you don't have enough karma. How are new users supposed to participate? It's ridiculous.

- simonblack 3y agoOr the one that really pissed me off. One day I accidentally, don't know how, hit the front page of reddit. On that page was a photo. Looking at the thumbnail, I recognised that it was a photo of an 'iron lung', a machine used half a century ago to help people breathe who couldn't by themselves. So I threw a comment at the post saying "An iron lung! I haven't seen one of those for over 40 years." or something similar. The next day I received a mail from one of the weird, never-heard-of subreddits. It said I was banned permanently from that never-heard-of-before sub-reddit because I was a commenter on a pro-Trump subreddit. Yes, that 'iron lung' comment of mine was on a pro-Trump subreddit. When I complained about unnecessary censorship, my post complaining of that unnecessary censorship was "disappeared". "Huh? Wha'?" was my reaction. Up till then I'd heard of Reddit censorship, but had never been a victim myself. Reddit is not long for this world. It'll go the same way as Digg, Voat, MySpace and all those other social-media corpses.
