Chodi is like the Indian version of TheDonald so no wonder. Not that /r/India is neutral either. Stop going to politics subs and you’ll be fine?


The same thing happens on technology subs. I was banned on /r/bitcoin for posting on /r/btc.


It isn't immediately obvious, but r/btc is full of trolls and shills for a bitcoin hard fork and other scam coins. I just checked it out and 2 of the 3 top posts were conspiracy videos about John McAfee.


This couldn't be further from the truth. You sound like a BTC maximalist.


Nice try, Gregory (Maxwell).


Bitcoin and btc are politics subs though.


"Stop using the website in the way it was intended; you must learn the bias of each subs or get banned. And by the way criticizing the bias of mods will also get you banned"


Been on that website for a decade, and being political was not its intention. It’s been established time and again that Reddit is not full free speech, they will ban (what they consider to be) harmful subreddits. That’s the expected outcome in Reddit. The only reason Chodi isn’t banned is because the admins probably don’t give a crap about Indian sub (just 60k members) and half the stuff written there is in broken illiterate hinglish anyway so they probably can’t even police that.


But the fucking sub was recommended to me on the app! I clicked, went in there, posted a comment or two to enlighten people, and bam! Banned from /r/india! W.T.F.!!
