    The “Anti-Evil Operations” (site-moderation, aka AEO) is very opaque and undermines the autonomy of individual subreddits. In /r/moderatepolitics, we finally just banned discussion of trans issues altogether because AEO had their thumb on the scale. I definitely come down on the pro-trans side, but it’s impossible to talk to someone on the other side of the issue when they have to avoid violating broad and poorly defined rules. The responses from inquiries has been basically non-existent, and this is for a fairly sizeable subreddit (250k subscribers).

      Subreddits dedicated to criticizing improperly imposed bans from other subs have been banned. r/banned was a safe place to criticize unjustly imposed subreddit bans.
