Thats what they said was the reason, but quite a few of those suns were not inciting violence. For example, r/ConsumeProduct was basically just about bettering your life by quitting your addictions to products, planting your own food, simplifying your life. They also spoke out about the dangers of pornography and the porn industry. Zero reason for a ban.

lol. You mean aside from the fact that it was an alt-right honeypot that didn't actually have a problem with consumerism, but instead with Jews and consumerism?

It used to be good but recently racists had started to show up. Someone was being highly racist and was obviously a white supremacist, and it got a bunch of upvotes. It took 3 days for it to get removed.
While it was good at one point, I think the mods started getting overwhelmed.

There are countless memes and comment threads on that sub that were just Nazi hatemongering. It was a poorly moderated dumpster fire.

If you have ever been to r/consumeproduct you’d know that they switched a long time ago to “bettering your life” by getting rid of minorities and LGBT people.

Did you know about how the members of r/consumeproduct harassed a female redditor who had a black husband? The members sent her threats in her PMs, doxed her, and even sent threats on her Instagram page. There are plenty of subreddits that cover the same topics without the racism.

Im still confused due to consume product being banned. AFAIK it wasn't political but just some humorous takes at corporations

That actually is a confusing one. It was kinda the shitty version of r/anticonsumptiom but it had the right idea
