Ooooh yes. Something similar happened to me out of the blue back in January. I commented, verbatim:
Random fact that I recently learned and thought was kind of cool. One of the very first responses of your body when you get a cut or infection is to synthesize hydrogen peroxide in the area that signals your white blood cells to rally to that area.
I then linked to Science Daily and Harvard articles about it.
Temporary ban for “Harassment,” citing this comment.
Later on I incurred another infraction and my account was permabanned, citing my previous strike as justification for the permanent ban. Smfh. 250 characters to appeal…
Meanwhile these idiots excused cesspools like The_Donald for years. Meanwhile I report a person being objectively racist (Calling them “out of control” and “absolutely feral savages”) and… They reviewed it not once but twice and found nothing wrong. LOL.
I wrote this all up in a medium article in more detail but I’m half-tempted to send all my screenshots to Fidelity and some news outlets for shits.
I was permanently banned from r/militaryporn for pointing out that MRAP was the name of a family of vehicles and not of a single particular one. Some former marine took strange emotional offense at this and spewed a lot of personal insults at me as I linked details a few times to the history of the program. The person commenting at me got extremely vile and an uncalled for, while also being confidently wrong. I just linked facts and didn’t insult in response.
