Is this for banning fat shaming and people freaking out?
I don't Reddit, but a guy I work with was trying to tell me about everyone losing their shite over new censorship rules.
I think it had a lot to do with it. Basically people were pissed that she was going away from what reddit's goal of being the free speech place on the internet to cater to advertisers. That and firing the moderator who set up all the AMAs, one of the best things about reddit.
