Neckbeard Ledditeurs got rekt and now have nowhere to cry

Apparently Ellen was the only thing standing between Reddit and banning all the hate subs: they asked her to ban all of them, but she only banned fatpeoplehate.

So isn't it ironic that all the angry entitled neckbeards drove her off the site with racism, sexism, threats of violence, and hate speech... and now that she's gone, [b]ALL[/b] of the hate subs are getting banned.

Sweet sweet justice.
The bans start tomorrow, so make your popcorn and watch the angry neckbeards RAGE <3

[quote=]Ellen was more or less inclined to continue upholding my free-speech policies. /r/fatpeoplehate was banned for inciting off-site harassment, not discussing fat-shaming. What all the white-power racist-sexist neckbeards don't understand is that with her at the head of the company, the company would be immune to accusations of promoting sexism and racism: she is literally Silicon Valley's #1 Feminist Hero, so any "SJWs" would have a hard time attacking the company for intentionally creating a bastion (heh) of sexist/racist content. She probably would have tolerated your existence so long as you didn't cause any problems - I know that her long-term strategies were to find ways to surface and publicize reddit's good parts - allowing the bad parts to exist but keeping them out of the spotlight. It would have been very principled - the CEO of reddit, who once sued her previous employer for sexual discrimination, upholds free speech and tolerates the ugly side of humanity because it is so important to maintaining a platform for open discourse. It would have been unassailable.

Well, now she's gone (you did it reddit!), and /u/spez has the moral authority as a co-founder to move ahead with the purge. We tried to let you govern yourselves and you failed, so now The Man is going to set some Rules. Admittedly, I can't say I'm terribly upset.[/quote]

Actually why are you even posting this here? Go post this crap over at SRS.

people on SRS already know what's going on.

I just found it funny/ironic how Ellen was the only thing stopping Reddit from deleting the hate subs, yet the hateful people harassed her so much she had to leave... and now because she's gone, the hate subs will be deleted.

To me it's the sweetest and most satisfying thing I've seen happen in a LONG time.

Why are people so invested in this? Also how did I know who the OP would be?

I'm not sure what's worse, the subreddits or you (and other people) getting offended by things on the internet
