I didn't get banned site wide but on a few of the bigger German subreddits.

I wrote "Punch Nazis - always and everywhere" which is inciting or glorifying violence against a group of people apparently. I appealed it and asked the mod what they thought of the Allies and what they did and wether we should maybe glorify that. They said something about political discourse and that I'm not making any sense after which I told them they would've stood on the beaches of Normandy asking everyone to calmly discuss their differences on the mArKeTpLaCe oF iDeAs.

And that turned my four week ban into a permaban

I left because they killed the app I accessed Reddit with, but that enlightened centrist bullshit permeates Reddit like the plague and definitely made my decision easier.
