Hi- I'm the mod of r/thisneverhappens. The sub hasn't been banned, it is just private, but it is probably a matter of time. I've saved a local copy of all 520 posts so everything isn't gone, but I can't start a new subreddit here for another two weeks after joining. If someone wants to create it and add me as a mod, I'll start adding the posts.

Bless you. This all happened while I was asleep and a load of my science links to GC went west.

I'll just have to dig them up again I suppose.

Very interesting that a sub dedicated to posting ONLY factual news headlines was just banned for "hate". Facts something something Feelings.

Amazing that you were able to grab this. Maybe you could start s/thisneverhappens here?

Wow. How desperate can you get to delete a sub collating news...

THANK YOU, I had messaged them about preserving their archive. I appreciate you doing that.

On the one hand, of course they're going to remove evidence, but on the other hand since when do TRAs care about evidence?

What was that never happens about?

When women voice concerns over the effects of self-id or allowing trans identifying men into female spaces, one of the most commonly used dismissive retorts is "That never happens." The subreddit above kept links to news articles about exactly the things we were told never happens.

Oh, the horror of posting actual news. Ridiculous
