CONTENT WARNING:

This page frequently quotes reddit posts, so it is filled with slurs, calls to murder minorities, rape advocacy, and other disturbing hatemongering.

Hate-speech on reddit.com has always been deeply embedded in the culture, with endless content dedicated to promoting racism, misogyny, transphobia, far-right terrorism and homophobia. An endless array of popular subreddits are filled with white supremacists 'joking' about murdering anyone who isn't a heterosexual white male. These 'alt right' trolls especially take pleasure in doxing anti-fascist activists.

The owners and admins of reddit have always encouraged this dangerous intolerant culture, even going as far as to send a gold-plated award to an infamous pedophile and neo-nazi after he created pedo-hive r/jailbait.

Anyone who cares about privacy and state surveillance should be concerned that reddit.com's warrant canary was quietly killed years ago, exposing every user's personal data to snooping government agencies.

In the months leading up to the US election, r/The_Donald completely took over the site as the crypto-fascist real estate mogul's primary campaign platform and likely propelled Donald Trump into the white house.

Hateful conspiracy theories are spread on reddit by the same crowd who turned Donald Trump into a sensation, leading to real world consequences.

While Trump-mania was taking over the site, reddit's admins began shutting down leftist subs and banning leftist users and mods for no clear reason.

The admins then started banning entire leftist domains from being linked to their site, while the founder and CEO of reddit declared: "The last thing we're going to do is take (white nationalists) voices away".

Reddit followed this up by announcing they were no longer open source, and effectively screwed all the volunteers that had donated their time and labor to improving reddit's codebase. Reddit's management then lobbied threats at a subreddit dedicated to exposing bad marketer practices; for making anti-advertising memes.

Things have only gotten worse since then, with the white nationalists behind r/the_donald using reddit to organize racist marches, including the one that resulted in the far-right terrorist attack that killed Heather Heyer and sent 19 more anti-fascists to the hospital.

In 2019, reddit's administration decided to target r/chapotraphouse, a subreddit for the popular leftist podcast. It started when they suspended a user for saying "slave owners deserve to die". Hundreds more users then repeated the same sentence in protest, and were also suspended. The admins deposed several moderators from the mod team as punishment, and then warned the remaining moderators to stop allowing users to say "slave owners should die" or the entire subreddit would be deleted.

When US anarchist Will Van Spronsen went to the parking lot outside an ICE concentration camp in Tacoma and took action to disable the fleet of buses used to transport the imprisoned migrants to the camps, he was shot and killed by the police. He left a heartfelt 3 page letter to explain why he gave his life to take a stand against fascism. Reddit's admins censored it and permanently banned anarchists that linked to it. They even censored links to Van Spronsen's folk music.

Anti-fascist content is banned by reddit admins for "glorifying violence against (nazis)", while fascists using reddit to call for the genocide of minorities are left to their own devices.

After white supremacist Brenton Tarrant livestreamed himself murdering 50 people at two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand, reddit celebrated. A mural depicting the terrorist as a hero, "Saint Tarrant" made the rounds in all the usual fascist subreddits. Here are some examples of redditor's defending the terrorist after the attack, encouraging further attacks, and even blaming the slain victims of his killing spree for being murdered:

Reddit is run by a far-right survivalist who thinks white supremacists should be coddled and fascist paedophiles should be rewarded with gold trophies. He has repeatedly stated that racism is not against his site's rules and has only acted to curb white supremacist calls to violence after negative media exposure forced his hand.

Reddit is a privacy nightmare. Reddit is a hotbed for fascist organizing and real world violence towards minorities. Reddit is a clear and present danger to anyone that would dare take a stand against fascism or any form of oppression.

By using reddit, by creating content for its owners and advertisers to profit from, you further its climb to the top of the world's most visited websites lists and thus give the hatemongers it shelters and profits from yet more exposure.

Stop feeding the reddit hate machine.
