I never got banned.
What's the most controversial thing you've said on there ?
Since I'm also in the never banned club, the most controversial thing I ever said on Reddit, based entirely on community reactions, was probably "americans perceive everyone outside america as sub-humans who are beneath self-determination, like they should be the ones to choose how we do everything".
Sounds like at least among lefties this should have been an uncontroversial statement, but gods I made some gringos mad on that day.
Hah, only controversial to me for the mass generalization of a wide group of 300 million. There are absolutely many who see it that way, although also many millions who don't.
The millions who don't do not hold power.
Saying "Americans" might be a gross generalisation, but as long as your country acts like the planet's collective abusive partner, I'll just. Continue to shit on y'all. ยฏ\_(ใ)_/ยฏ
