There are so many racists and hateful subreddits, that attract more and more people like that, that makes the community as a whole worse.&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;m really glad that moderation actions like that are taken, and I&amp;#x27;m sad that people reply to that by &amp;quot;harassing&amp;quot; the CEO...&lt;p&gt;Hopefully such people will get frustrated by such events and will eventually leave reddit.&lt;p&gt;Note that it&amp;#x27;s mostly people posting to &amp;#x2F;r&amp;#x2F;punchablefaces that are reaching r&amp;#x2F;all right. Another hateful reddit for you...&lt;p&gt;PS: FWIW, &amp;#x2F;r&amp;#x2F;all has always been pretty bad. If you want a good reddit experience do like me: unsubscribe from most subreddits and suscribe to smaller subreddits with active moderators.</text><parent_chain><item><author>teraflop</author><text>This article dramatically understates the magnitude of the shitstorm that is currently unfolding.
