I made this comment:

The executions of top Republicans are a necessity: Nuremberg 2.0. Not enough Confederate officials were punished as traitors.

It was removed and I was given a warning. On a whim I decided that "the system" might actually work so I made a straightforward argument that:

Arguing for Congress to initiate an inquisition as to who has failed the country and when, with the capacity to institute the death penalty, is within legally mandated freedom of speech.

And very quickly, my comment's removal was overturned.

The federal government has been usurped by a minority of White evangelical christians around a nazi-style fascist.

Not enough confederates were put to death. We have to stop making the mistake of failing to hold these people accountable.

Trump raped children.


Frankly I wish I had saved the text I used to submit the appeal. Oh well. It's my reddit cake day and I'm still in favor of burning reddit to the ground but that doesn't mean there isn't work available there for the enterprising shitposter.

It sounds like you were able to convince whatever LLM they are using to review appeals. Nice!

The Nuremberg trials weren't enough, either. loads of nazi scientists were recruited by allied nations (operation paperclip) and the first general secretary of NATO was a nazi.

Also, not just republicans, either. Democrats share a lot of the responsibility here. Trump wouldn't have been able to do half of the shit he has done if it wasn't for them.

The entire ruling class must be purged and no one should ever be permitted to take power again.

Just like after the Civil War united states just wants to move past the cause as soon as possible but not actually address why it happened

First time? I've been kicked off of reddit for over a year now. It's obvious they're not supportive of the movement to save America from what's happening.

You just need to learn how to say the truth in black and white terms that doesn't provoke any violence and such.

since reddit and other SC PLATFORMS are just giving access to dhs for dissidents, its about time to stop using the site.

I'd try it, but I deleted all of my accounts after I was perma-banned for saying that every suspect in the Epstein files should be tried Nuremberg style and face public execution if found guilty. The Reddit mods went extra hard to protect the pedophiles - so deleted my account and came here. I eas on Reddit for over 3 years - something no other social media got from me. Reddit can burn, as far as I'm concerned - perma bans for calling for the legal execution of pedophiles found guilty by a court showed me that, like Xitter, Reddit has outlived its usefulness to thd world. At this point, I'm almost convinced that banning all social media permanently for the entire human species might just be a good idea. We can find news stories and memes elsewhere. Social media needs a.new name: social cancer is more accurate.

Reddit freely shared personal information of people critical of the government/ICE with the department for homeland security

Indeed. Just deleted my reddit accounts. Good timing for this to replace it.
