I had a post removed from the Irish politics sub despite it not being in breach of any sub rules only an unwritten rule that it was a negative story about the government parties.

I sent a dm to ask why it was removed and one of the mods must have forgot to change accounts or responded on the wrong browser because I got a response from a non mod account (but known antagonist) who said “the thread was locked for the reasons I’m mentioned in the thread”, and considering the only “mention” in the thread came from the automod saying it was removed for “editorial” (nothing was changed).

I messaged back to let them know they forgot to change their account and they instantly blocked me.

I messaged back to the main mod dm with a screenshot of the message I received from a non mod account and was then accused of making “allegations” against the account that had sent me the DM and the mods insisted it wasn’t them.

When I asked if it wasn’t them, why did someone randomly dm me telling they gave a reason for a post being removed when they are not a mod and would not have had any idea I had sent the DM otherwise.

Given that a lot of subs have the same mod team, I was just banned from the politics sub and the main sub after this, purely because a mod forgot to change his account and used the one that shows up on both subs regularly abusing and harassing other users.

Is there any Reddit rules against this shit? I’m tired of not being able to use the full site because some dweeb forgot to change his account
