I got a ban from a group because there was a lot of horse posting. I basically commented that "hey there's a lot of evidence that horse riding causes permanent injuries", and "who here can actually afford this posh hobby". The admins were rich as fuck. Somehow rich people tend to have more time to do this shit. Anyhow, they said that I was being personally insulting because "posh hobby".

I was also kicked from a reddit-logo sub for reporting obvious Islamophobia. Fuck that place.

I got a two week ban from Facebook for anti-white racism. And I'm officially the whitest person on Hexbear.

Maybe I'm a lib or too damn civil, but I haven't yet been kicked from a site yet deeper-sadness

It's unsurprising but still heartbreaking. Twenty years ago ButtBidet believed that people gave a shit about bigotry, and the realisation has been difficult.

I don't want to tell the name of the website as it would doxx me hard, but there's an online shopping website I use occasionally, and the website makes it virtually guaranteed that seller can remove a negative review any time they want. I did find it VERY frustrating that 1) I got ripped off, and 2) I can't even tell the world how shoddy the quality is. Anyhow, the point is that I understand your grief.

Consider epubs maybe? It's the best way I've been able to get away from Amazon.

edit: Not shaming you for using Amazong
