Yesterday I posted about a disinformation thread in `r/TheTrumpZone` which pushes the lie that Trump won the 2020 election:

https://www.reddit.com/r/DisinformationWatch/comments/sbwre2/raskthe_donald_and_rthetrumpzone_lie_about_the/

Not only did I write about that disinformation, I also [reported](https://www.reddit.com/report?reason=this-is-misinformation) it, of course. As a consequence, I was myself reported for "abusing the report button". And what did Reddit do? They took the side of the disinformation superspreaders and gave me a "Warning for Report Abuse".

This is unacceptable.

Reddit must start taking action against disinformation. And Reddit must stop shielding disinformation spreaders from the consequences of their lies. If you too were reported for "abusing the report button", I strongly suggest you send a [protest message to Reddit](https://www.reddit.com/message/compose?to=%2Fr%2Freddit.com)! Even if you merely received a warning.

This is the message I sent:

> You [warned](https://www.reddit.com/message/messages/1aah7iu) me that I committed report abuse. I did not. The thread that I reported as disinformation is indeed disinformation. Here's a fact check which debunks that specific lie by `r/TheTrumpZone`: > > https://factcheck.afp.com/wisconsin-vote-surge-was-not-fraud > > Trump didn't win the 2020 presidential election. Biden did. Not only did Biden win, he won fair and square. You know that as well as I do. But here is `r/TheTrumpZone` lying again that Trump won and Biden cheated. And you are letting them get away with it. Again. And they will continue to push this lie. Again and again. As they have done every day since the 2020 election. Because you are letting them. Because instead of taking action against that disinformation, you are punishing people who call that disinformation out. Again. > > Reddit continues to actively protect and promote disinformation. > > It is high time for you to take action against the endless torrent of lies from `r/TheTrumpZone` and other disinformation subs. And it is high time for you to prevent the disinformation superspreaders from abusing Reddit's report system to silence legitimate criticism.

Maybe it's time to contact the [Select Committee to Investigate the January 6h Attack on the United States Capitol](https://january6th.house.gov/news/press-releases/select-committee-subpoenas-social-media-companies-records-related-january-6th) directly. Attempting to help Reddit clean up their act appears to be a waste of time.
