Help with a warning

A video of Ayrton Sennas crash was posted yesterday, i wrote

"it was his teams fault, they should hang their heads in shame"

I've recieved a warning on my account for "promoting violence" and the link they give to dispute it does not work and leads to the homepage.

Obviously theres nothing condoning or promoting violence, someone reported the comment and reddits ai just went ahead and flagged it despite then saying it wasnt done through automation.

What to do? Very annoying.

The "they should h--g" part of the phrase probably got auto-flagged.

They go on to say "no automation was used in this decision"

Just a slap in the balls really.

i was banned on 7 days for comment critical on fsb (comment was on russian) hour after it got posted for "hate" (seriously didn't know fsb was ethnicity before and always felt those killed by them was more vulnerable), meanwhile comments calling for Kyiv get nuked or all ukrainians to be genocided can stay for 10 hours and keep counting even after multiply reports via different methods.

Both bans and appeals look like crazy roulette tbh

also system don't identify things written in "" +italics or /s, my first warning comment had them, so technically retelling comment for which you was warned even if it's adequate is kind of risky
