I'm a member of r/Republican and I wrote a post that encouraged Republicans to just accept that Biden won the election and to focus our energy on winning the Georgia Senate race. My post was not approved by the moderators. I asked them if I was shadow banned. They said no. I asked them why my post was not approved and this was their response:
"There are still disputes about the election result. You insisted that all of these concerns were unimportant and that we had to ACCEPT that Biden won. That's your opinion. If you'd like to submit something that DOES NOT demand that everyone lay aside their concerns about vote fraud...feel free to do so."
First of all, I never "demanded" anything. I really just gave my opinion. And I didn't say concerns about fraud were unimportant. I said that Georgia is more important. Anyway, I then replied with this:
"Wait, so I’m not allowed to have an opinion about the election and where Republicans should focus their energy? Do you realize you are restricting speech the same way that progressives do? Do you even see the irony in your actions?"
They then replied with this: "Well, now you are just abusing us after we are being reasonable and responding to your modmails. Rule 1."
And then they banned me. These guys are complete hypocrites.
