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.

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.

It was explained that it was their behavior not the idea behind the subreddits.

FPH was harassing people while coontown keeps to itself.

Because fatpeoplehate was a sub which harassed people. Coontown has not been found to be harassing anyone.
