They weren't banned. Their post will be hidden by default behind a warning (a "click here to see" sort of thing); users who disable such hiding will just see it without clicking.

They were banned.

https://bsky.app/profile/realendwokeness.bsky.social

"This profile has been flagged: Content Blocked. Go back."

That's what you see if not logged in. There's no option to see the profile or post. Perhaps if someone logs in and changes the default it becomes visible, (or maybe not), but it's effectively banned.

Another user on the thread says they posted "Woke up today blessed that Trump is my president" and five minutes later:

https://bsky.app/profile/tankblades.bsky.social

"Not found. Account has been suspended."

That's far more aggressive than any other website.

And this is exactly what people mean, when they say that this account spreads misinformation.
