I got banned from world news for being pro Palestinians and the mods wouldn't even give me an answer as to why I got banned. Then when I kept asking I got a site wide ban for ""harassment"
my experience is such that people don't get these sweeping bans for having opinions. They get them for acting like sociopathic aggressive individuals.
And based on what I'm seeing when I check folks' profiles reiterating the same story... Yep it checks out more often than not. There's no discourse on the internet when it consists of calling people slurs in a weird barrage of insults. Those are the people who get banned here or there.
