Reddit used to have a variety of racist subreddits, I think they started banning them maybe a year or two before Trump? Maybe longer, I can't remember.
It was actually a reflection of why I'm against political correctness in all forms. It starts with "OK, GreatApes and Coon Town are legitimatly 'racist' so we can ban them right?" Everyone agrees. Next comes "Fat People Hate" which maybe was 'offensive' but had the right to exist the same way 'quityourbullshit, OKRetard, ShitTumblrSays etc.' has the right to exist. (Also I am of the school of thought that fat shaming is a needed evil just like slut shaming, alcohol shaming, drug shaming especially being a former alcoholic/drug addict) then from there it quickly snowballs into anyone and anything that Reddit demmed 'offensive'. This is why I was so adament about racists getting the right to speak and always said that the last time the ACLU were the good guys were when they were defending a pack of Nazi's rights to march through a Jewish neighborhood.
what was GreatApes? sorry if im missing a joke or something

Yeah, all people who aren't idiots said the same thing at the time, most people are too busy with watching Netflix to care.
