Agree on every single point, I was in shock at these viewpoints coming from GC. I was on that reddit A LOT and I never once saw posts like this specifically about hating male babies, abortion, etc. which makes me think that mods may have removed the posts before I saw them but did they really or am I just wishful thinking???? did they just allow this crap?? if they did, there should have been a warning from Reddit to get our asses in order. I still think the ban was too heavy handed considering how many other banned reddits received warnings and we got zero. At the same time, I am horrified from what I saw from those posts. It's fine to express disappointment if you had a specific sex in mind, but to gleefully crow about aborting male babies? Come the fuck on.

I remember the post, and ShoeOnHead's video about it. Definitely some of the comments did get deleted by mods. I think I'd been following r/gc at the time, and some of the responses were quite extreme and surprising to me, compared to typical sub content. But I think it would be unlikely that a sub would be banned for one thread that's at least 9 months old now.

thank you! I always thought the mods did a fantastic job at keeping discussions in order so I'm relieved to hear that!
