Reddit Bans FatPeopleHate
So FatPeopleHate is a subreddit mainly used to make fun of obese individuals. They're pretty vile and act under the guise of "helping" people lose weight through shaming and making fun of appearences.
Well, that subreddit just got banned and there's a shitstorm brewing and it's hilarious.

It's called the Fattening
Quote:
Just so you guys realize, we're essentially going to spam every sub and the modmail with either fat people hatred, or reports of other harrassing subs like SRS. Brilliant job fatties. Edit: Downvote all you want, Shitlords will unleash a ******* of unstoppable hatred now. FPH isn't a subreddit, it's an idea. And Idea's are unbannable.

Look, I've never posted in r/fatpeoplehate and never visited it, but can we drop the charade and everyone just come out and admit that all this is about making reddit's user base more palatable for advertisers?
Coca-cola doesn't want to be associated with r/jailbait or whatever, I get that. Reddit needs to monetize because it's not profitable, I get that too.
But let's stop pretending this is about ivory-tower ideals of community and free speech. Reddit has never been about free speech, and the isolated-island format with moderators having dictatorial control over their potentially-walled gardens hampers an honest exchange of ideas in favour of increased groupthink and radicalized discourse. Free speech and "authentic conversations" (whatever the **** that means) isn't out there waiting in the wings for r/fatpeoplehate to be banned. Advertisers are. They don't want their ads accidentally popping up on r/ihatejews or something and then a media shitstorm erupting, so the admins need to sanitize.

So glad that ATRL doesn't allow this ****ery to go on. It may be sometimes messy here, but most people are not crazy like certain people on reddit are.

There are people here who think Lady Gaga and Katy Perry are talented. Reddit is far more sane as far as I'm concerned

Kind of like ATRL is it not? Just change straight to gay, take out white, and there you go.

Why take out white? The majority of ATRL members are white males. As for the comparison, not really valid. This forum is actually moderated quite well unlike most other websites on the Internet.

Good.
What about all those other vile and offensive subreddits on there?
If Reddit really is "the front page of the internet" then I know it's government owned propaganda. The amount of ****ery on there is just...

Exactly, imagine if they had a report system on reddit. That would be messY.
So any of ya'll complaining about reports better realize that without it, ATRL would be a thirsty, racist, anti lesbian, nude pic cesspool.
