View submission: Removing harassing subreddits
Yes, they know their userbase. I'm *incredibly* happy they decided to go this direction and piss off the toxic group of users that I don't want to hang around. They can all go to voat and leave us and our "censored" private website alone. A majority of reddit probably doesn't give a flying shit.

You think they're just going to leave? If they go to voat they can now openly brigade all they want. Create loads of sockpuppets and link threads over on voat. If you think this is somehow going to fix or "cleanup" reddit so it matches your precious little SJW world you are hilariously mistaken.

Its great for you now, but imagine a world in which you are not reddits 'ideal user' and suddenly subs you visited are getting banned for such a vague term. There are 100s of comments here pointing out worse subreddits for harrassment but the admins/CEO picked one they dont like on a personal level or to appease advertisers. Whats the point of reddit if not everyone is welcome?

You don't hang around unless you're subscribed. They didn't ban the users just that 1 sub.

So you want an echo chamber. You have that in Tumblr, go back there instead of trying to bend reality to your moronic line of thinking.

Oh hey, look at your downvotes. That's usually a sign that you're wrong. Go back to Facebook and reading huffpost articles, you'll fit in better there.

You're getting crushed under the idiot teenage account spamming brigade, but the rest of us reasonable reddit users agree with you. Fuck those assholes.
