Someone made a post with a picture of a blonde haired blue eyed child. The title was “Would you slap this child for 88 million dollars?”

I said “Slap!?!?? I would eat that child’s still beating heart for 88 million dollars.”

Next day I log in to find out I had been temp banned for 7 days for sexualization/abuse of a minor.

I uninstalled Reddit. That was 11 days ago and I haven’t been back. Context is important. Obviously, no one is going to offer me 88 million dollars to eat a child’s heart. Not to mention, do you really want to make deals with people that can offer that to you? I mean, I wouldn’t.

All this has led me to realize. I don’t want to be part of a community with no sense of humor.

I would post a link but not only was my comment deleted. The thread was too I think.

    Weird, I always got permabanned for similar jokes.

    They really started cracking down on dark humor right around the time they first told 3P developers just how hard they were fucking them over. My guess is that it’s part of the overall enshittification plan - sterilization of all posts in preparation for the IPO.

    Ironically, my appeal to my last permaban went through during the blackout in June. I got an email about it, but I never bothered to log back in.
