Hi, I went to GC to read about JKR blocking Stephen King from Twitter because he's a trans supporter and that is how I found out about the banpocalipse. I think it was a political move, they banned the wrongthink subs (the conservative ones) and explicitly said hate speech against whites is allowed. This is why GC was banned (going against the agreed liberal agenda) and porn subs are not.

A lot of the misogynistic subs that are still on reddit go way beyond "porn" -- they specifically involve the dehumanization and/or brutalization of women. You can find lists on twitter if you look for #reddithateswomen.

I guess that's why the mods decided to omit "sex" from the list of protected characteristics and explicitly allow hateful content towards "the majority" (women?)

I do enjoy the fact that so many refugees are complaining they banned the wrong subs.

Well then, please try to make a porn sub here and see what happens.

Why would I do that? Just enjoying the hypocrisy.
