I’ve confirmed this with multiple accounts now. If you promote the 2nd amendment, including training responsibly with others, your account will be autobanned within 60 seconds.

To be clear, my comments contained exactly zero calls to violence. They were simple comments stating every American has the right to arm themselves and that everyone should train responsibly, ideally with others who are more experienced.

I’ve had 4 or 5 accounts autobanned within a minute now. All immediately after posting pro 2nd amendment comments. These accounts were anywhere from 1 week to multiple months old. So they’re not brand new accounts that are being flagged for whatever reason.

Reddit is now complicit in the fascist takeover of our nation.

    I’ve noticed a pickup of fediverse and open social interaction in the last year. Big tech is tightening things down and folks are fleeing.

    I think it’s the same reason I was banned — and my ban was upheld upon review.

    I stated that people who harm children should be punished more harshly, legally speaking. I didn’t call for violence, either.

    I think what the situations have in common is, the Epstein stuff was heating up again. I wasn’t really going there, but maybe they thought I was suggesting their orange buddy face justice?

    Meanwhile, a lot of 2A justification is protecting your land against tyrants. Again, the orange guy.

      It’s almost like the guns are mostly held by bootlickers. But even if not - say I had a shotgun, the fuck am I supposed to do with it?

        Train and help others learn. That’s how I am doing to help empower my local community. My state made to where we don’t need licenses to purchase or own them and to sell them peer to peer all you need is a bill of sale. So I teach people how to use them train them and find ways to help them get their own equipment without having the gov and their cronys know who is getting them. The less they know the more they fear, you don’t need to use violence immediately to get things done. It takes time, plus it also helped me get closer with my community since I have been able to teach people how not to rely on the gov with other aspects of life as well. ICE stopped going into our area since they now see people from all walks of life with gear and training.
