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.

Ban /r/fatpeoplehate but let /r/coontown stay?...... Maaan fuck logic sometimes. I bet they felt offended because some of them were fat but no one was black. Their response was pretty shitty too http://i.imgur.com/LFtCt55.png

His post basically says "We wont act on it until the subreddit gets reported to us". Which basically opens up the door for massive report spam campaigns to shut down subreddits that a group of people dont like. Even more effective is to get it into the news so that in order to save their precious money supply, the admins are forced to ban it.

I nominate the word "harassment" for the absolutely worse word of the 21st century. It's a word that has truly lost ALL of its original meaning and now simply means "I'm personally offended". Fuck anyone else who might be offended....that's just offensive.....but when **I'm** offended, it's fucking harassment.

I'm really surprised that subreddit actually gets to stay, but at the same time, it is freedom of speech. Its a shame though, they are clearly equally as hateful as FPH.
