They :umad: Spent a couple minutes on their IRC and they've already made a new page.

Edit: This all comes down to the fact that this fukked up Reddit's ad money. Nothing more

I don't know.
I suspect that a lot of these subreddits are independently monitored by moderators who volunteer their time for the site.
And banning certain subreddits (or removing them from the Front Page) takes place when there's a certain level of uproar.

:coffee:

And some people here have the nerve to say that we're more twisted than reddit.
Who's said you're more twisted than reddit on this site?
And how can you be more twisted than a website?
And it's not twisted it's just bigoted and racist, almost all of the most popular members in TLR and all of the other posters are homophobes, and sexists, or use slurs against other groups or tolerate members who do.
Reddit is a site with millions of users that's specifically geared towards making many different communities so of course there's going to be some sick subs, how can you logically apply that to an entire user base?
Anyways I'm glad those subs are gone and it was absurd that the fat people hate forum was banned first.
:why:

Most of these cacs dont even see or talk to us at all

:dahell: these people are not human
The post of an idiot.
Bro there are still subreddits about watching children die/viewing pics of dead children


Reddits full of fukked up cacs
Because only white people use that subreddit.

I still don't think reddit is a racist website.
But it does have racist subreddits.

Think of it this way: The Coli is a cool website. But some forums within it probably are not your cup of tea.
You may dabble in The Coliseum or The Ring or The Gym...but maybe you think The Salon is petty bullshyt.

Reddit is similar in that way.
How does The Salon compare to those banned subreddits?

These disgusting cacs are actually defending the animated CP subreddits as having a right to stay on reddit. :dahell:



Someone who is taking the time and effort to make art depicting CP should be on a watchlist somewhere. :sitdown:

I guarantee that those people are already doing some :sitdown: stuff offline.

90% are white. The only subreddits with more black presence are r/blackfellas and r/blackladies

People on Thecoli act like Reddit is a monolith, different subreddits have different cultures with different prevalent beliefs.
While yes this side of the site that's complaining about this change there's an equal if not greater side that's been pressuring them to get rid if it for even longer that they always fight against.
Overall I stopped posting and going around reddit because the racism was depressing and just like I said when I came to thecoli I came here to talk about Breaking Bad and like minded black Americans on social issues.
Well yah that didn't pan out properly but I still stay on here more than I ever did there.

I don't see you in the Root and when you do post there, you're there to police Black posters.
