I would advise caution with believing and spreading any claims about people being shadow banned on whatever website. While shadow banning is a real thing and it has occasionally been misused, most claims boil down to “I got less engagement than I expected on a post about a sensitive topic.”

It’s usually pure coincidence and occasionally a spam/abuse filter misfiring.
