Yesterday I made post sharing how I felt radical feminists were immature in their behaviour and how I would be able to take them more seriously if they behaved responsibly.

Today I log on in and I’ve been given a warning by Reddit as they believe I have violated Rule 1 (no hate based on identify or victimisation of marginal/vulnerable groups). Apparently I promoted identity based hate and/or attacks.

No threatening language was used in the post and no incites to violence were made or suggested.

I simply conveyed the approach I’m taking with radical feminists which is to not be willing to listen to them until they learn to behave responsibly as otherwise it’s pointless (e.g. hypothetically some sort of agreement could be reached but based on current patterns of behaviour then it wouldn’t last and would be pointless).

The only mistake I made in the post was using the word ‘women’ instead of ‘radical feminists’ in the post title. This was an error on my part and I do recognise women are diverse much like men. My post had the intention of discussing the radical feminist social movement.

The post has since been deleted by Reddit. So ye, I suppose the lesson is to be careful what you say and where you say it. I frequently see far worse and outright hatred of men on Reddit, I wonder if those posts also get policed…
