Fair enough, the admins probably have a clearer idea of what they want out of the site than I do. Also, I have a couple of comments/questions:

  1. Posts like that are definitely not the majority of posts on /s/pinkpillfeminism, so it likely isn't analogous to the subs you're talking about.

  2. It seems to me that as long as subs that do act like that allow dissenting voices in the comments, they should be allowed to stay anyway. Were the subs you're talking about removed for not allowing dissent?

some banned sub lists

possibly similar subs that were removed include /s/coontown and /s/fuckthealtright

I'm not sure whether ppf is removing dissenting voices right now or not, or just low-pyramid comments.

It looks like some of those communities might have been banned for advocating violence, which is against the ToS. /u/d3rr, do you know if that was the case?

If so, it seems that those bans were for pretty different reasons than a post simply saying "FUCK MEN" a bunch of times. Something like "Let's murder men right now" would be something I'd see as a bannable offense.

I agree there's a difference.

I know /s/fuckthealtright was banned before any posts were made based on the name. I don't know about /s/coontown though. I'm not sure if it was for advocating violence or for being low-pyramid.

sub bans have been for either for violence or for the whole concept being too low pyramid, imo. supertrolls combine it all so well.

the whole concept being too low pyramid, imo

By that logic you should ban all the meme and shitpost subs.
