Perma-bans are fucking crazy.
The correct way to think about them is as a death sentence.
Hatred speech in real life:
    what, like 2 years in prison?
    IDK actually...
Hatred speech on reddit:
    death penalty.

More like lifetime sentence because you still can view the content without the account, no? It’s not like they come into your house and took all your computing devices.

But even people serving life sentences can
    still communicate with the outside world from prison.
