I posted this yesterday:

And apparently this warrants a instant permaban.

They don't even tell you what rule it breaks. Which one do you think it might break?

In any case, every time I visit Reddit and look at my local subs (Montréal, Québec or Canada) I look at the comments and they're absolutely vile. The community has become so fucking toxic it's unbearable. And I also realized how my mental health actually improved since I left that community.

They can keep the permaban. I don't give a shit anymore. I'm so over that god forsaken place.

Peace out.

Quick update:

I contancted the mods and apparently I was permabanned for spamming and they immediately muted me so I wouldn't be able to message the mods any further. I can understand that it can be considered spamming, but I feel they're being extremely harsh over this. They really have no chill.

“Woke” has become a derisive term used by conservatives to describe anyone/anything socially conscious. It’s often part of a rant (or general line of thinking) involving “what’s wrong with this country/the younger generation”. For example, if you’re against things like racism, sexism, or homophobia, I’d call you a decent human being, but a conservative would likely call you “woke”.

This is the kind of “insult” that says more about the person using it than it does about you.
