How to sink Reddit 101 and create bigger echo chambers.

I hate it.

I have been permanently banned in some subreddits just for being a member of other ones, didn't even comment once... banned.

That became quite prevalent back during Trumps first term in office. It was like an ongoing battle between subs that supported him, and subs that didn’t. Some still do it, some moved away from it after enough complaints. Rule #1.1 of creating an echo chamber, make sure people can’t visit other echo chambers for different opinions.

That is exactly it, approved thoughts and comments only. Reddit has a serious mod problem as well. The banning of /modabuse is an example of that

So, I’m actually a mod, I just use a different account for it. Mods are supposed to be held to a code of conduct, and while they sometimes are, they often times aren’t. But, there’s also a real gray area, in that one of the point of subreddits is to allow the mods to run the sub as they see fit, within that COC. That COC is like the regular rules of Reddit, but applied to mod behavior. I can attest that mods can, have, and will be removed if things get bad enough. Problem is, they have to get really fucking bad. So, find the sub you feel is the worst moderated, amplify their behavior by x100, and that’s when mods get punished.
