That's what the 10th times in that "9 out of 10" was for. I remember commenting in /r/conservative because they made a big statement that essentially said they were an echo chamber without specifically calling it that (they went so far as to say they didn't know what to call it lol) and I pointed out "Oh, you admit to being an echo chamber?" and got banned (naturally). But then a couple other subs I used did ban me because of that 1 post. It wasn't to hard to get a reasonable mod in either sub and get them to actually read the comment and unban me, though.

Largely the subs that did that shit, tho, were the right-wingers and extremists.
