    So, the rule is very old already, actually: You can’t criticize ICE on Reddit if you’re an American citizen, because of this. And you can’t criticize ICE, Israel, Trump and etc. on Reddit even if you’re are not the USA citizen - because of bans on platform.

      People criticize Trump, ICE, Israel on Reddit all day every day. There are many subreddits dedicated to these topics.

        I have personally witnessed a lot of bans and repressions because of this. Mainly on popular subreddits. Small ones remain relatively intact, since not much people attend them anyway. What I mean is that you can create a subreddit of like 50 people and discuss there whatever you want. But once you in a big one (100K+) - bans.
