He censored the word censorship, and the phrase "freedom of speech".

"/u/KamensGhost: The new accounts modded are min. I added them so it looks like we have more mods here so that people don't try to posts threads about /r/xkcdcomic like they did yesterday"

LOL!

This thread has been linked to from elsewhere on reddit.

[/r/SRSRedditDrama] /r/xkcd is back in the right hands! Here's all of the stuff they did behind the scenes after I was kicked off.

[/r/bestof] After controversial white supremacist and holocaust denier /u/soccer is removed from /r/xkcd, the new mod posts the Automoderator config /u/soccer used to remove certain phrases

[/r/Oppression] It turns out /u/soccer explicitly banned /u/xkcd from /r/xkcd

Hey Wyboth! I just wanted to say thank you for making the world a better place. It's great to see that there are still polite, intelligent, honest and wonderful people like you. Thanks again for saving /r/xkcd.

Haha, cool.

Funny thing is, I wasn't really that active publicly. I think I started two threads (including the very first one!) and commented maybe a dozen times total.

Brilliant

Was banning the phrase "Without the" really necessary?
