OP, you ignorant slut. π€¦ββοΈ
Wow. Didn't know that. You learn something new every day, I guess.
Also, I guess that implies SNL exists in The Office universe.
Considering Michael props up his humor on pop culture references, it'd be a must.
There were a few SNL skits that Michael called out. The Mr Bill one comes to mind
Jim also swears he saw Lorne Michaels when he was in NYC with Karen for the Job Interview.
I wouldn't use that kind of insider joke on a social media. Chances are that at most 10% get it. The rest will be rightfully offended.
Not rightfully. Mistakenly offended.
It's similar to facebook or twitter at this point. You can get suspended for the most silly things, appeal it and they're "NO we reviewed it and you are VERY bad" and meanwhile, someone can threaten to murder you and you report it, and they're "we reviewed it and this was perfectly super cool, sorry".
The other thing is that they typically ban you for life, which is harsher even than our legal system. As a society we've agreed that it's possible to pay your debt to society, but private companies have no obligation to see things that way. It's like we've taken rules to deal with trolls in an old school Counter Strike server and tried to extend them to something that resembles a corporatocracy. It's a lot different and more meaningful to get banned from service provided by a monopolistic company compared to getting banned from your local bar, for example, when you can just go across town to the other one.
it's fairly horrific, like being banned from amazon. So Amazon is "hey we want a monopoly on all commerce!" .. and then if you're banned by them?
Reddit, you ignorant slut
Reminds me of a customer who used to say 'listen here you little shit' if I stirred him up.
I am going in to post your comment. Wish me luck. Will report back.

The OG line is "Jane, you ignorant slut." from Saturday Night Live in the 70s.
But then most people online aren't old enough to remember that...
So this was actually the second infraction on that account? And even if "ignorant slut" is a reference to something it seems like pretty strong language to me, especially if it's an escalation from zero.
I was once suspended for making a dumb dick joke, something like βthat guy must be hungβ (it made sense in context, stupid sense, but sense nonetheless). This was reported as a threat of violence or whatever. I appealed, explaining that I wasnβt wishing anyone to be hanged, merely suggesting that they must have a large penis and got my account back.
Meanwhile racist dogwhistles and rampant transphobia abound with little consequence.
I swear they never look at context. I got permabanned for QUOTING something racist that someone else said. The person who said it was left alone.
It seems like Reddit decided to look for any excuse to ban anyone talking negatively about their API changes or talking about Lemmy.
I was banned in one alt from a sub for ban evasion on a sub I was accidentally banned a few minutes from. I didnβt notice and posted from my main. All accounts were instantly permabanned. I donβt think it was a coincidence it was like 2 days after I dared to question spez in his AMA.
called someone a cunt on fb. bots kicked me in 2 seconds. 30 days for harassment. my 3 months on Tw ended for less. disposable, all of it
Had a 10 year old account get banned for something minor....which I appealed and got restored. But it left me to realize there are no actual rules on reddit....just a collection of echo chambers. I deleted all comments and the account itself shortly after. It's been sad watching Reddit die.
I was permanently banned site wide for politely suggesting to not allow cosplay posts (that always market onlyfans) in r/gaming, as it was flodded by softcore porn. Often times not even cosplays from games.....site wide ban with no warnings in the past....I promote my stuff on reddit and it was taken away for something miniscule like voicing my opinion.
I remember getting banned off a subreddit simply because I subscribed to another subreddit that they didn't approve of lol. When I tried to appeal, even un-subscribing from the other sub, they perma-banned me from the subreddit with no response. Good riddance.
I remember I called something "Really Stupid" in response to something someone else said that was really stupid, and I was banned for using an ablest slur.
The admins are probably ignorant sluts, I guess.
Yeah, I strongly suspect large numbers of trolls are making very, very heavy use of the reporting features.
eh, it's reddit so who cares? dying platform is dying
I've been on Reddit for like 12 years and I was never banned by an admin. The fact that you got banned twice is sus.
I did get banned from blackpeopletwitter for being white.
Are you sure that's what you got banned for? Like, did you get a message saying that's why? I've literally never heard of someone getting site banned for mild name calling.
