Rule 1 of this subreddit: why it exists.
Today we have a thread up featuring a nasty Nazi woman calling people subhumans, laughing at their plight.
We understand this is very upsetting to see, however, what that lady said doesn’t make it okay for you all to go after this random unrelated woman. We banned many people for violating the no witch hunting/no doxxing rule, and some of yall were pretty damn rude about it in modmail.
Look, we love this subreddit, we love exposing bigots and Nazis here, if you participate in a witch hunt you are participating in attempting to get this subreddit shut down. If we allow witch hunts the subreddit will be banned. So just don’t do it.
On top of the folks who participated in putting this subreddit at risk for banning, ya’ll are relentlessly harassing and facilitating the harassment of an innocent woman.
I can’t say I’ve seen many examples of Reddit getting it right and targeting the right price of shit. You all mean well but you ruin people’s lives.
The Boston bombing debacle should have taught you all a lesson but it seems it did not.
