>Any community or mod that doesn't play along is removed

This makes no sense and is completely wrong.

Can you give some examples?

Fat people hate and the Donald both fit his narrative.

No, both of them caused a lot of outrage and gave Reddit a huge number of views, read GP comment again. So those are counter-examples.

Removing the_donald sub was ridiculous especially when compared to equally if not more objectionable rhetoric on main subs like /r/politics. Additionally if you want to get rival subs banned on reddit you just post and report objectionable material icognito. Reddit is a dumpster fire of juvenile , woke idiocy now and I rarelt visit anymore. That said some of the content on the_donald was just as idiotic but if you are going to allow one you have to allow the other.

T_D caused a lot of outrage and gave Reddit a lot of views, so it's an example proving the opposite of GP's point.
