r/mgtow, r/metacanada, r/KotakuInAction, r/TumblrinAction, r/unpopularopinion, r/politicalcompassmemes are candidates. The subreddit about the upcoming AAA game "The Last of Us 2" is pretty vile aswell.

If you consider KIA, unpopularopinion and making fun of TLOU2 as vile then I'm not sure what that word even means.

plus: There are regular calls to murder all cops these days on reddit. In plain sight. Just imagine what would happen for any of those "bad" subs if they wouldn't remove those within seconds.

>KIA The mods had to stop in and tell their own subreddit to stop celebrating the death of a trans e-sport player [1]. A year ago or so they also had issues with white supremacists.

>TLOU2 Just some choice picks from a recent thread [2]

"Everyone that is part on lgbtq should go live on an island. I wanna see how long you last. Since you hate straight people. And dont know how to reproduce because you think ass holes feel better than pussy."

"They'd need migration to reach replacement level for their plummetting birth rates "

"Because their fuckery and meddling has brought us to this, be gay in silence instead of shoving ity down everyone's throat. You are the fucking minority. LGBTQ is an evolutuionary dead-end for a reason"

"SJWs need to be castrated. Yikes."

"Gays are parasites. They don’t reproduce but steal instead, corrupting the youth through pedophilia. See: Milo. See: Steve Huffman. Many such cases!"

>unpopular_opinion It used to be pretty questionable a few months ago, but maybe it got better. I haven't really bothered staying up to date on it.

KIA is undeniably vile. If you don't consider it vile I'm not sure what that word even means.

Sounds like you aren't fan of those subreddits but should they be shut down if they are not violating the site rules? The fact is that those subs are heavily moderated. If they weren't they'd be the first to go.

The point is that the rules should be changed to disallow those sorts of subreddits. Let those users go somewhere else; reddit has no responsibility to society to host them.

I'm fine with these subreddits, aslong as they're properly moderated and not calling for violence or start brigading other subreddits. When the whole Jessica Price controversy happend there was a lot of new users on r/Guildwars2 that never posted there before or even played the game. I don't agree with them and think they're vile, but aslong as they don't break sitewide rules I'm ok with them.

unpopularopinion and politicalcompassmemes are not even remotely close to being candidates and including them in your list sounds very extreme and politically correct.

None of those even scratch the surface of what used to be on reddit back in the days

Thankfully.

What's wrong with /r/conspiracy?

It has a lot of far right misinformation, fake news and articles from fishy sites. The mods are biased and wont moderate those.

E.g from yesterday https://www.reddit.com/r/conspiracy/comments/gwgv6i/awfully_...

Sounds like typical conspiracy theory behavior to me, not sure what you expected from a conspiracy subreddit or why you would want the subreddit banned.

Outright falsehoods aren't always conspiracies, they usually lie in the unknowns. It's one thing to say Clinton is a secret Chinese sympathizer, it's another thing to say she was born and brought up in China. Many of the fake news things fall into the latter category, just lies designed to promote the far right.

Conspiracy theories used to more neutral like 5 years ago. Now they're exclusively far right and anti-liberal.

The same thing that's wrong with conspiracy theories (e.g. Q). Lunatics flock to platforms that let them disseminate their lies.

but everything is cleanly tagged under /r/conspiracy ?

Yes and the people who populate that subreddit comment everywhere else, too. Same goes for other misogynist/racist/right-wing subreddits. The proliferation of these subreddits leads to a proliferation of low-quality users.

doesn't reddit have that extension (forget the name) to ban users across all subreddits and tag them etc ? (not from the site but for your own browsing)

You're talking about literally thousands of people you'd need to ban.

TD is gone for a long time now. r/protectandserve is a reddit for police officers as far as I know? Not sure what's controversial.

lately its been them sharing memes about "why are protestors so surprised when we gas them" and the like

I don't really see how removing the subreddit would make them any less likely to gas protestors though.

Honestly, I'd've thought anti-police-brutality people would prefer them to share such things publicly for screenshotting purposes and etc.
