View submission: [Updated] Who runs /r/Holocaust? Each line represents a moderator overlap. [OC]

View parent comment

I mentioned it in another comment, but basically:

1. /u/soccer (a white supremacist/neo-nazi) gained control of the subreddit through /r/RedditRequest.

2. He invited all of his neo-Nazi friends.

3. Said friends turn /r/holocaust in an antisemitic, shit-filled Holocaust denial forum and ban everyone who disagrees.

He's done this with a lot of subs (/u/soccer's modlist is *huge* because of this), ~~including /r/xkcd (*visit /r/xkcdcomic instead*), which now has mods that will actually censor and remove xkcd comics that disagree with their personal beliefs.~~ Kind of pathetic, really, but there's nothing we can do about it.

Fortunately, there's a replacement for r/xkcd at /r/xkcdcomic

a comic sub that bans its own comic... if what you are saying is true, then it should be easy to convince reddit admin to do something

Reddit is fucked. Those guys just sound like the lunatic fringe. The rest of reddit is still teeming with casual racism, pro-eugenics, pro-population control, and "libertarian" assclowns.

Shadowban /u/soccer? It sounds like he regularly brigades other subs and such. If we lost /r/ccj for silly reasons, I don't see why this fucktard should maintain any legitimacy.

He hasn't been active for months, is it possible for him to be removed from all the subreddits he mods?

Is this the same guy who held r/XKCD hostage for like a year, leading to a massive flight of that subreddit to a newly created r/XKCDComic?
