Hi all,

Brand new here. Hoping for a little show-the-ropes action as I don’t fully understand Lemmy. Believe it or not, I was banned from Reddit for trying to talk about DRS too much…

I’m so glad there’s a community that exists for DRS. Looking forward to some great discussions here!

Regards, TG

    Believe it or not, I was banned from Reddit for trying to talk about DRS too much…

    not hard to believe at all. Reddit’s and superstonk’s antagonism towards certain DRS conversations and the DRSGME.org team is one of the main reasons why this Lemmy instance exists in the first place. i wrote a post about it.

    to this day, the mod team of superstonk is promoting Plan over Book, suggesting:

    • investors should use scheduled recurring buys through Computershare (therefore putting their account into Plan)
    • “it is insidious” that anyone ever suggesting people should turn off recurring buys
    • it is sad that people sold fractional shares
    • anyone who goes against the mod team is not acting in good faith

    On the subject of good faith, the mods of superstonk:

    • censored and banned all Plan versus Book discussions and DD in the superstonk subreddit
    • they tried to censor any mention of such DD in other subreddits (r/DRSyourGME)
    • when their attempts at total control failed, they pretended as if that DD was always welcome to have been posted in superstonk
    • banned nearly everyone from the DRSGME.org team from the subreddit
    • banned many other users who have otherwise questioned their authority
    • now that most of the resistance to their authority has been eliminated from the subreddit, they continue to push the narrative that investors should engage in behaviors that result in their account being enrolled in Plan
    • banned any mention of any alternative communities, banned the mere mention of the word “lemmy”

    The superstonk mods have asserted their agenda over the subreddit and banned anyone that resisted their agenda. They ban anyone for suggesting that there are other places to go.

    It’s almost as if the superstonk mods really don’t like pure DRS book, and they really don’t like people going to any places that might discuss things that contradict their preferred agenda.
    I have a very hard time understanding how this could be, unless I consider the possibility that they have ulterior motives.
