This feature does exist on new reddit. In a community you moderate, hover over the award and you should see a "hide" button which will prevent it from displaying on that post. It's fairly new so please do let us know of any feedback you have and we'll pass it along to the team.

Here's a screenshot of what it looks like:

Here we go again. This should be made a priority because it wasn't made one the last time around.

Sounds like those awards are just in bad taste to begin with. Everybody's already been complaining that the number of awards available has become ridiculous. But Reddit's probably bringing in piles of cash with them, so I imagine it's only going to get worse.

I have "F" removed automatically in my subs by automod, but Reddit made an award for it. Sounds about right.

On a second note, this is more proof that Reddit does not need 37 awards. Reddit worked the same way before when it was just silver, gold, and platinum. I don't see a need for fixing what wasn't broken
