Subreddits that truly exist in bad faith tend to not survive. And we can usually know how it’s going to go based on how the moderators respond when we reach out with a request[1] for them to tighten things up. If they are unable or unwilling to work with us we will then move towards sanctions, which can include things such as actioning users up to and including removing moderators or removing subreddits completely.

It’s not against our policies to have views that are unpopular, unfashionable, or simply wrong. It’s not prudent (or feasible) for us as a company to broadly make these decisions for people. However, we do take action against communities or users that violate our content policy[2]. Communities are also free to (and do) draw their own lines by creating specific rules, which is a really important quality of Reddit communities.

Where we spend most of our energy is preventing manipulation of Reddit. This can range from preventing groups of people from cheating with votes to our new “Community Interference” report reason, which as we shared recently in our Transparency Report[3], is 58% actionable (which is among the highest actionability rates of all our report reasons).

A stark reminder that the death freedom of will come at the behest of, and with the clamoring applause of those who value first their security, secondly said freedoms.
You deserve neither, and I hope you realize that you act in far greater "bad faith" than those who you seek to silence.
