    I got a warning on reddit a couple days ago for suggesting Deni Avdija (NBA player) is getting a superstar whistle this season because he is Israeli.

    They removed my comment and threatened me with a ban for promoting violence when all I said was “It’s because he’s Israeli.” In response to the OPs question.

    I was mostly joking, but it kinda seems like they are already doing what this guy is saying they should do.

      Remember if you must reddit, lurk, any voting, commenting you do over there is transferring value from you to reddit.

          People underestimate how hard it is to stay out of the comments. Most of our happy chemicals come from the comments. We’ve trained ourselves to head there after reading the post, if not just the headline. It’s not good, not now, when the comments are policed and filtered so thoroughly.
