Thank you! I'll add to the main post

blackpillfeminism was great, I was really sad it got nuked just a couple days after I discovered it. a lot of venting/depression stuff which was a little too intense sometimes, but lots of undeniable insight too and a perspective you don't really see in normie feminist communities. they were really into seeing humans as animals, which might be offputting to a lot of people but I found it relatable. kinda hoping it will be recreated here or on some other platform.

I loved blackpillfeminism too! I was pissed when it was banned for "inciting violence" when men can post violent, misogynist shit all day long on shitty reddit. Women are never allowed to fight back.

Blackpillfeminism had a bleak outlook, but I saw it as quite realistic regarding the dynamics between men and women and how those are impossible to change since men will always oppress women because of our biology.

Hmm I thought pinkpillfeminism was banned, but I just checked and it looks like it went private. i wonder why it was allowed to survive while gendercritical wasn't? I love both subs but I won't join pinkpill on reddit since I deleted my account and I'm not going back.

Reddit hates women. Thanks for compiling this list!

It's always been labelled as a satire kink sub. I think the mods realized kink subs are untouchable and followed suit.

Items marked with "• -" mean I haven't looked for archives on the Internet Wayback Machine, because the site keeps messing up on me.

I said this on another thread, but basically reddit had to do a coordinated blitz of all the gender critical/radical feminist sites because if they only got rid of the big ones, then everyone would just regroup in the smaller communities that were still left. Thanks for putting this list together.

banfemalehatesubs was banned for that reason— or rather, that was the pretext. People were just discussing the mass bans there and reddit's hypocrisy in leaving up almost every one of the unbelievably hateful misogynist subs that banfemalehatesubs had documented.

JoanneRowling was taken down today. GC friendly, but only because we couldn't discuss our support for JR in the JKRowling sub.

Yep, it's awful. I just added some major updates this list, including r/joannerowling being banned. Luckily, I already had a snapshot of the sub from the day before, so it's obvious that the reason they gave for banning it, repurposing a sub to circumvent a sub ban, is bullshit. All it did was support JK.

The admins seem to have caved on /r/banfemalehatesubs so I suppose there's hope.

Thanks for the list! Any idea what happened to woc_gendercritical? I can't seem to find it on mobile but maybe I'm getting the name of the sub wrong. Is there a GCscandinavia on saidit?

It was gc_woc I think.

Do you mean gc_woc? They've gone private.
