Yes, I’ve read many posts the current state of reddit. But today, somehow I thought it can’t be that bad if I just go looking for some funny videos.

Boy, was I wrong. This post was at the top of my feed, and briefly scrolling through the comments got me out of there without looking at anything else ☠️

Oh, well, I tried…

    That’s a misguided assumption. There’s a mod in that sub who habitually deletes posts and comments for no good reason, which inspired the creation of r/AskWomenNoCensor.

      All the top posts on r/askwomennocensor seem to be women complaining about how the sub is overrun with men asking for dating tips, with the mods stating in a thread 16 days ago:

      We remove a thing, and suddenly we get called fascist, tyrant, “chronically online,” etc., and members wildly upvote those public callouts.

      Yall gotta decide if yall want “fascist tyrants” or to be plagued with inane incel questions. We remove a dating question? “Tyrants!” We let it go? “Why is this sub so trashy?”

      As one redditor notes:

      I know this sub was created because the other asksubs have so many rules. But this is unfortunately one of the reasons why so many rules exist.
