Is Reddit the least open platform on the internet? It's the only place I can think of where accounts are easily permabanned. Even Twitter gives a multitude of options and now practically allows everyone back on after a 6 month timeout. Aside from this place of course. But this place is a bit of an outlier.

I'll give you a reason why it's not just trouble makers getting banned. Let's say you allegedly break a rule of a sub. You feel this is unjust so you complain on one of the other friendly subreddits. This will be considered brigading and harassment. Immediate ban.

Is Reddit really good anymore? It's hardcore enforced group think.
