    I was banned from /r/politics for posting the famous Kennedy quote, “Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.”

    The ban reason? “Glorifying violence.”

    I mean, I do glorify violence, I just wasn’t doing so at that exact moment.

      I got a similar ban. Someone posted a video of a nazi getting punched and I commented “I will never not upvote a video of a Nazi getting punched”.

      I copped a 3 day site wide ban for inciting violence while the video itself remained up after hitting the front page…
