I once got a ban for quoting the current US president. Apparently when a random anonymous redditor says it, it's "inciting violence," but when the president says it, it's "patriotic."
I got several bans for the same kind of thing.
didn't realize that clearly quoting somebody else's words so they could be discussed was me saying and meaning those words myself
First time is got a temp ban was when I said it was a pity that the Butler shooter missed. When I was back, I told to the story of why I had been banned, and bam! Got banned again for quoting myself. Reddit is totally insane.
