In a post regarding climate change I called another user an "Ignorant Slut" like that line from the Office. Anyways got permanently banned site wide and I just can't help but wonder if that was necessary.

It's not like I say that all the time, it was a one off instance and they just remove me from their site. I don't mind it so much since it's just a Reddit Account but it is really annoying since I can't help but feel the admins had it out for me as they banned my account unjustly before and then reinstated it. But this time the ignorant slut was all the reason they needed to remove me from their existence.

Anyways just wanted to rant to the void on how dumb Reddit can be sometimes.

You probably got banned because you referred to it as being from "The Office", when it's originally from "SNL"

[–] ptz@dubvee.org 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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.

OP, you ignorant slut. 🤦‍♂️

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.

I love inside jokes. I hope to be a part of one someday.

I was once suspended for making a dumb dick joke, something like “that guy must be hung” (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 wasn’t 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 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.

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...

Reddit, you ignorant slut

[–] kiddblur@lemm.ee -1 points 1 year ago

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.
