yea that makes sense. btw, i appealed the ban and they reviewed it again and ban stands.

Never went back to reddit again. even blocked it on /etc/hosts

I am not sure about why comment here was flagged and ppl saying "you deserve ban". So I guess everyone is assuming "empty language" .

Yes, without the clarification of "i am indian too. It was in /r/askindians", it looked kind of racist here too. On these types of topics, you do need to spend a little bit of effort making sure your intent is communicated clearly, because for every well-intentioned person there's another actual racist troll.

Yes. If you don't want to be perceived that way, prefix your comment with clarification that it's not actually your opinion.

even if its not my opinion. Is it really something Reddit should permanently ban me for?

The point is that they did think it was your opinion.
