You permaban accounts by automod? Reddit’s automod is corrupted. For Israel, and to protect other powerful figures. If you get into it with connected influence agents on certain subjects, even without breaking the rules, they find an unrelated conversation to take issue with, not bothering to find a plausible one that’s against the rules.
Lately the comment you get violated for is not even shown to you either, they remove it and their link to the offending comment shows nothing. In appealing and pointing that out they just confirm the violation without addressing that you aren’t shown the offending comment, and confirm bad faith violations that no reasonable person would think is promoting violence or other such ad hoc accusation.
We have no rights online in the US so they don’t have to try and make it believable, let alone wait and find a plausible violation.
Idk if permabans by automod are therefore proper. The more popular the fediverse gets, the more the powerful will get their hooks into it. Unjust enforcements will prevent federated social media from getting the critical mass to unseat the silicon valley parasites that government and monied interests have their hooks into as the only games in world.
I think those actions should have appeals, leading to jury trials of users online. It would install trust in the system, in a time when trust is fast eroding from everywhere as the rot in society has spread into plain view.
With the right systems, the new federated social media, including new ones to fill other needs, interoperable with lemmy and piefed and mastadon, peertube, et al, and the like, could be the key to organizing, to working people cooperating on what they agree on, and in the fullness of time, to making political machines that can break the oligarchies’ death grip on our politics, and restore our liberal democracies to their relative glory in the post war years, before the 1971 Business Roundtable made a long game for big business to cooperate on what they agree on, like crushing liberal democracy, and creating a monster they arrogantly think they can control after it achieves absolute power, something they are well on their way towards, not just in the US either.
I have no control over automod and it exists because this community regularly gets spambots and other spammers. We’d all prefer not to have automod, but there’s not much we can do about it since the spammers refuse to stop.
