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 mean, they were cool with naked pics of celebs, but not cool with shaming fat people.

That and she fired a beloved moderator, who would conduct the IAMA sessions. Reddit lost their shite after that.

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.

Ill consider this a good thing when things change on that website.

If people still get banned for ridiculous things, boards get taken down for hurting the feelz, and major current events get taken down in /r/news to be replaced with what still, racist thing white people are doing now then I will continue to hate that place.
