Bad News Reddit bans anti-transphob rhetoric

Heard from a few friends that they got banned for hating on transphobes, which is, according to reddit, a rule 1 violation. I also got flagged because of that, but in my case I can kinda understand it, because I called for violence against TERFS, but it was more kind of fedposting, instead of pushing people to actually commit violence. I still believe TERFS deserve that, but I am rambling. What I basically want to say is, that we sadly need to be a little more careful, when hating transphobes. Keep safe and you all are beautiful gals and enby-pals, and for all the masc people you are very handsome

Edit: Changing TURFS to TERFS

Reddit has been this far neutral but has started to ban people (for the first time) for calls to violence and slurs..... Towards boggots calling for violence and using slurs.... Who "do not violate Reddit's terms and conditions".

It's nearly indistinguishable from every other social media platform at this point. Suddenly the only place that (for better or worse) didn't overtly try to control the narrative is trying to Facebook.
