I think I got banned for replying "?" to someone saying NATO was bad because I'd literally never heard anyone say that. The context was about the invasion of Ukraine by Russia. I'm glad I'm off Reddit and modlogs are public here.
I truly hate seeing people get banned for questioning a viewpoint. How weak are your opinions if you literally won't answer questions about them? Of course there are bad-faith rhetorical techniques that involve asking questions, but people wanting to learn should never be turned away.
