Submitted a post to r/usa advocating for more public transportation, bikability, walkability, and urbanity in general.

What irony be this, that in my earnest endeavor to illuminate the virtues of civility, my words were misconstrued as mere jest, my wit mistaken for malice. How swiftly the great reddit mods strike, casting me into the shadows of banishment. My intent was pure, my purpose noble, yet my words lost their essence, I was reduced to but a troll. They called me a troll! Oh, the indignity! A troll they called me!

You posted a screenshot of the ban notice, but not the content itself...? Without any context at all, why would I believe you over that mod, or anyone else for that matter?

Yeah exactly, because there are ways to advocate for something without sounding like a troll... which OP may or may not have done.
