"Remember the human. Reddit is a place for creating community and belonging, not for attacking marginalized or vulnerable groups of people. Everyone has a right to use Reddit free of harassment, bullying, and threats of violence. Communities and people that incite violence or that promote hate based on identity or vulnerability will be banned."

That's Spez's quote on the reason for CTH being banned. Looks like it was for all the threats of violence and harassment, which I absolutely regularly saw from CTH posters, and it had nothing to do with hatespeech.

Spez wants to own slaves after "the collapse" so it makes sense he interprets "kill slaveowners" as hate speech.

1.) Spez is a Nazi, so write that down

2.) We were banned because we wouldn't stop posting "KILL ALL SLAVE OWNERS" in our own quarantined sub.
