Well now this is trashy. I got permabanned from r/interstingasfuck for posting a comment in r/MensRights that was an attempt to correct some misinformation. I’ve never made a post in either subreddit and that was the only comment I’ve ever made in the MensRights subreddit. But r/interstingasfuck’s bot decided to permaban me even though I’ve not broken any rules.

The ban

The single comment I’ve ever made on r/MensRights

Also I tried to make a post on r/MensRights (would have been my first post there) on me getting banned for making a comment and the mods there blocked it. You would think they’d love the chance to show they are victims of discrimination and censorship.

Man Reddit is trash.

    How? What is so terrible about it? To me it looks like a place for men to vent about unfair treatment.

    I am looking at the threads and one guy was sent to jail after consentual sex, another thread was about someone who was taught in school that “men and boys should sacrifice their lives for others”.

    These are topics that deserve discussion but more importantly they deserve to be conveyed without fear of bans from one of the biggest entertainment communities by some misandrist automod.

    Or is there a “proper” subreddit for these kind of discussions that I don’t know about?

      I haven’t vetted these beyond a quick look, but anything using the term “men’s liberation” is likely to be better than “men’s rights”:

      The “men’s rights movement” is just a bunch of reactionary grifters exploiting male discontent and weaponizing it against the usual scapegoats. They don’t give a shit about you.

      Men’s liberation on the other hand is the counterpart to women’s liberation/feminism. Both are in favor of gender equality, though feminism tends to focus on women’s issues, so men’s lib focuses on men’s issues.

      oh I wholeheartedly agree that these are valid topics, it’s just that mensrights doesn’t do that.

      they are just openly misogynistic. and extremely toxic and shitty towards women. i tried to join a while ago in support of men’s rights. i was endlessly sexualized, mocked, and insulted. extremely scary kind of things. threats of rape, the whole nine yards.

      yes those issues are extremely important, but the subreddit devolved into an incel misogynist hellhole. it’s toxicity is pretty well known.
