Oh… this community has been active since 2013…

Time to hide your crimes, right, Reddit? Fucking dog shit website has a long history of hosting the most depraved and vile shit without a single peep until the media comes sniffing around.

“Violence has no place on Reddit,” the spokesperson said. “Our sitewide rules strictly prohibit any content that encourages, glorifies, incites, or calls for violence. In line with these rules, we are removing any instances of the suspect’s manifesto or recordings and hashing to prevent reupload. We’re also closely monitoring the communities on our platform to ensure compliance with our rules.”

The same site that popularized the usage of “Orcs” when talking about Russians, maintains a popular subreddit called r/CombatFootage with 1.8 million users.

    Oh fuck right off. Unless it’s directed towards marginalized communities, right? And people can play word games so the algorithm misses the clear bigotry which means your fascist platform is squeaky clean
