View submission: /r/fatpeoplehate has been banned from reddit. /r/coontown is still here. Does anyone still doubt me when I say that the Fat Acceptance Movement has gained an EXTREME amount of power, while heightism is celebrated in our culture? This is absurd.

meanwhile the most toxic subs on reddit (SRS and SRD) are given free reign because *their* bias is on the other side of the spectrum, which happens to align with the reddit bigwigs.

i'm not defending /r/fatpeoplehate, by the way. the people that posted there were disgusting.

Yeah, it's crazy. I didn't like /r/fatpeoplehate. But reddit is making me defend them because of this blatant hypocrisy. How is it that /r/fatpeoplehate gets banned while /r/coontown stays? Oh, I forgot, a black person can become white through healthy diet and exercising.

This makes me genuinely angry. If anything, I think shit like this will hurt the cause of "fat acceptance". And hopefully, a few short guys will wake up and smell the coffee after seeing the hypocrisy here.
