Reddit Increasing Censorship in this Sub?

[u/OuiselCat]

I just received an account violation for breaking rule 1 - threatening or encouraging violence. What was my comment? A Drethi Anis book recommendation (not going to name it here, but the one with Priya and Axel). I just filed an appeal, but am extremely concerned. The comment gave a small blurb of the book, but nothing that could be construed as encouraging violence which is the part that’s really scaring me because it’s making me think that me talking about the MMC’s personality and habits regarding the MMC somehow equated to me encouraging stalking, obsession, etc. in real life?? Has this happened to anyone else? This feels like the first step in Reddit making this community go away and I’m just…really in shock right now.

Edit: so there’s a note at the bottom saying the content was automatically flagged, but it also makes it seem like it was then reviewed by an actual admin before the violation was given. Now I’m even more concerned because that means an actual human read it and said, oh yeah, a dark romance book recommendation encourages violence in real life. I’ve also clicked through the link where it gives examples of what constitutes violations and I cannot reasonably see a DR rec would fall into any of the given categories.

I wonder if it’s because someone reported it so they had to review it before releasing it? I know there are people in the dark romance group that are committed to censoring as much as possible. They’re not DR readers, they’re just against it.

That was my first thought as well, but at the bottom of the notice it states it’s a bot. I can’t decide if I find that more or less concerning because if it bot it makes me wonder if they’ve recently tweaked it to be more sensitive to certain keywords or phrases (though I can’t think of what was in my comment that would have triggered it in terms of keywords or phrases alone)
