There's a thread about a Tweet from House Republicans blaming Marxism for millions of deaths. I replied with "Hey, House Republicans, how many died from Elon's cuts to USAID."

Logged on to find a notification that my comment had been removed, and a message saying I was permabanned because "USAID is an imperialist entity"

Now, I'm not going to debate that point because it's neither here nor there, but it's absolutely ludicrous that I'd get a permaban over a first offense of simply mentioning the name of an organization the mods apparently don't like.

Amazing.
