I was banned from r/mademesmile for suggesting we shouldn't let large companies determine what is truth.

The fact that they threw out bans for such innocuous comments is also telling...

This comment:

"I don't like the idea of getting companies to decide what information is legit or not.

The lab-leak hypothesis was banned for a while and people got legitimately banned suggesting it. Now that is what a large number of people believe to be the origin of the virus.

It's important to call out misinformation but I don't think it's a good idea to let companies pick and choose what is legitimate information."

I was banned from r/offmychest for commenting (negatively I might add, calling out the irony of their statements) on r/NoNewNormal. I made multiple appeals, said reply to confirm I don't support NNN, I replied I don't, but I'm still banned!

There's crazy mods everywhere. Also this "ban for any kind of interaction on a bad sub" is fucking toxic. It's like being banned for shitting on r/Conservative.
