Elon Musk has taken aim at Redditafter some of the site’s moderators introduced a ban on links to X, formerly Twitter, in protest over his alleged Nazi salute during an event for President Donald Trump’s inauguration.

    “Reddit continues to be anti-free speech,” Cedric Hohnstadt said on X. “I just got a lifetime ban from the ‘comics’ subreddit. Yesterday, I posted a humor comic that got over 5,400 upvotes. Then I noticed that there was a pinned post from the moderators saying that comics linked from X could no longer be shared because Musk gave a Nazi salute. I commented saying no he didn’t. The moderator accused me of being pro-Nazi, banned me permanently for life, and deleted all my past posts from the, ‘comics’ subreddit. But somehow Elon Musk is the totalitarian?” The post has been viewed 3.7 million times.

    Ok, Cedric. Do it at work in front of your boss and boss’ boss. Do it while staring the head of HR in the eye. Own the libs and prove it’s not a Nazi salute. Quit bitching on Twitter like the snowflakes you hate and put your money where your mouth is.
