In my experience, people use reddit's reporting tools to harass people they don't like with "reddit cares" messaging. It's a tool of abuse used by pathetic losers.

News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

Every single reply I posted that even so much as leaned liberal I got a “Reddit cares” DM like “are you in crisis?”
It was like a joke for chuds “aw, does baby wanna KYS because big bwad Dwonald Twump won de election?? Awww!”
I hope they can’t afford groceries, and I’m not sorry.
Anti-suicidal notifications are one of the least messed up things in the Reddit administration system for now, since dealing with literal AI banning you for nothing is much worse.
Really, allowing mods to permaban people in large major subs is worse than any of it. It gives those mods way too much power, and they mostly use it to ban opinions they don't like.
What opinion were you banned for, Anakin?
just block the reddit cares bot.
my last year on reddit i was getting these messages almost daily from harassers reporting me
Here's a list of 30 hotlines that will call the cops on you if you tell them you're actually that close to the edge, and will hang up on you if you don't. I bet you feel so cared for now, no need to thank me ☺️
Calling the cops sounds like reliable way of getting over that edge.
Reddit should remove all mental health subreddits. Reddit doesn't have any or no great protection to shield them from assholes. Anyone and it probably has happened, can jump onto any post of someone who's suicidal and deliberately push and push them over that edge.
And they should know that the people posting to and moderating those subreddits, are also at the expense of Spez being a billionaire.
Oh look, it’s rape fantasizer pizzacake
Sorry, we will never love you, psycho
I'm afraid to Google this
At worst, she has some milqtoast comics, and overreacted to parodies/edits.
so you should uhh, startpage it or ecosia it or duckduckgo it or brave search it.
The irony of her whining about Reddit when she used them to ban people that didn’t like her.
What a fucking hack.
Fun fact: reporting a redditcare instantly bans the account that sent it.
The Reddit Cares bullshit was itself being used to harass people before I left the site entirely.
Imagine downvoting criticism of the hallow and often-abused reddit cares button.
Imagine downvoting a comic from a very annoying artist that many people have gone to lengths to avoid.
Pizzacake is the only person I've blocked on Reddit because I was sick of all the drama that arose whenever she posted anything. Now her content is following me here to the Fediverse, and the drama too - when I explained my dislike over on this comic communty I got accused of being the one who was "stalking". It's like there's something in the water whenever her comics show up.
Some people fiercely defend pizzacake against any and all criticism, I just think the comics suck
Now her content is following me here to the Fediverse, and the drama too
Is someone forcing you to spread this drama?
The drama was coming from inside the house!
If you didn't comment on every single one of these posts whining about how you "can't get away", you wouldn't be accused of anything.
It's showed up in two different communities that I'm subscribed to. I commented in one of those and that's when I got accused of "whining." This is the second community I'm subscribed to where it showed up, and I commented about the other comment I made about it here. The two communities are about completely different subjects.
The instance I'm on shows me where it's been crossposted to, there's at least four other communities it's in. I didn't comment on any of those since I'm not subscribed there.
But yeah, I'm the one who's stalking.
And you're still whining about it as if the comic is deliberately targeting you, that you just can't help but make those comments about how these comics get so many people complaining about them, just like you're doing. You could ignore it and move on, but here you are, part of the very thing you "hate".
Same to you.
Feel free to elaborate.
Really? That wouldn't be more "whining?"
It's pretty simple, though. I complained about the comic, you complained about me complaining about the comic. If one of those is a problem then surely the other is too. If the solution for me is to just shut up and endure it, that's your solution too.
Personally, I think a position of "can we please not turn the Fediverse into an echo of Reddit" is more appropriate here than a position of "stop complaining about the Fediverse turning into an echo of Reddit". But you do you I guess. It's a free community.
Lol, I'm not "complaining about you complaining". I'm pointing out the delusion of whining about not being able to "get away" from something that you have chosen to engage with of your own volition multiple times, and the hypocrisy of being upset by the state of the comments that you yourself are contributing to.
The great thing about Lemmy is that if you don't like a post, there's another one under it.
Can we please keep this annoying artist off of Lemmy… I didn’t leave Reddit to see this slop.
I never understood the hate for her, to be honest. Are the comics sometimes unfunny? Absolutely. Is she a bit cringe? Definitely. But it seems so many people have a visceral reaction to her comics like they were personally offended. This one even makes a good point. If this was a plain text screenshot of a tweet you'd have read it, nodded, and moved on with your life.
Her comics suck ass and feel pretty low effort most of the time. As a leftist, I find her liberal politics nauseating and self-congratulatory. She’s just a douchebag.
Eh, it's the same man children that turn out to whine anytime a woman is doing anything other than trying to look sexy for them. I like these threads because it's an easy way to find people to block.
anytime a woman is doing anything other than trying to look sexy for them.
Of all the women you could defend with this point, you picked one that does online sex work…
Absolutely nothing wrong with sex work btw. Her comics just suck ass lol.
