Today, I am proud to say that the bootlickers on /r/politics banned me for exposing their systematic effort to censor BlackLivesMatter (hexbear.net)

This was the comment that got me banned:

Things that were deleted by mods for being "off-topic"

A WaPo article about a journalist being attacked by cops who then lied about it was removed by mods
An article about how police spied on BLM protesters using a shady company removed by mods for being "off topic" link
A WP article about a Supreme Court Justice's wife denouncing BLM is off topic, and was removed by mods
NYT Article about the systematic use of car terror attacks on BLM protesters if off-topic, apparently
Article about the cop who murdered George Floyd nearly murdering someone else earlier deleted by mods for being "off-topic"
Article about Ramsey Orta, who filmed Eric Garner's murder, and was then attacked by the NYPD was removed for being off-topic
Police Memo Says Officers Raiding A Journalist's Home Were Instructed To Turn Off Their Body Cameras was removed for being off-topic
This NYT article about videos of police brutality removed by mods with 17K upvotes for being "off-topic"
A terrorist attack that killed a BLM protester is considered "off-topic" by the mods, and was removed source
This post about a spreadsheet of police brutality was removed by mods, then reinstated sneakily. This tactic effectively suppresses it, and people can't complain about it being removed because it's not. Smart.
Police infringe upon a woman's free speech rights and arrest her for calling her parents "racist" on facebook Yeah, that post is also "off-topic", because policy repression about people complaining about racism has nothing to do with US politics. Mods removed that post for being off-topic
Article about how NYT admits it lied about coup in Bolivia in an effort to support US intervention there is considered "off-topic" by mods, and is deleted
Guardian article about peaceful violin protest removed by mods for being off-topic link
Article about how NYPD gets away with gross civil rights abuses removed for being off topic source

i got perma banned from r/politics too a while back by trying to argue with the mods when they were mass removing any post about strikes also calling it "political but not politics", just fucking unbelievable how shit that place is. Literally something is apparently only politics if a politician talks about it.

I got banned based on an argument from a guy who openly bragged about not hiring people with bad credit. That whole site is right wing, just a different flavor than republican IG

I wonder if their justification is radlib rhetoric about how "BLM isn't political sweetie" because "we can disagree on which politicians to vote for who systemically brutalize Black people but not about HUMAN RIGHTS like BLM".

There really isn't a disconnect between human rights and politics. That's lib shit. Every political/policy decision affects someone else, usually people at the bottom who are disproportionately brown and poor.

One of their dumbass mods once explained: state violence isn't "political" because politics is when celebrities say something about politicians on twitter or a politician says something stupid or snarky, not when systems created and supported by politicians have real, material consequences.
