Paul McCartney’s official Reddit account seems to have been banned. The account, u/paulmccartney, had just dropped a set of photos and videos from the first night of his shows at the Fonda Theatre. It went straight into the r/PaulMcCartney subreddit. Then, not long after, the whole thing disappeared.

    Yep, I got a site wide ban for wishing a missile strike on Putin. “Threat of violence”… as if it was something that I threatened to do :/

      I got one for commenting on the France subreddit that it wasn’t surprising some people would carry justice by themselves if the police and courts do nothing. I wasn’t justifying, merely explaining. Subreddit ban, then permanent sitewide ban a few minutes later.

      I once got a ban for quoting the current US president. Apparently when a random anonymous redditor says it, it’s “inciting violence,” but when the president says it, it’s “patriotic.”

      My ban was because I replied to someone who wished Trump would succumb to his cheeseburger gods. I replied that instead I hope he strokes out and suffers.
