Wasn't it banned? That feels like more than "nothing"
Yes. In 2020. After raiding other subs.
Not because they broke any laws or were racist. Just TOS shit.
If you then claim that reddit did anything to combat the alttight uprising i have a bridge to sell you.
I think they tried to allow for almost any uprising on every side. It's good for business. And what's good for business is good for their Chinese investors.
they were rathe eager to police any leftist content, even if it was clearly satirical
To be fair, it took waaay too long for anything to be done about it. I feel like they kept it going for so long because it was drawing people to Reddit and improving engagement etc. Even when they did step in, they just quarantined the subreddit.
