MisleadingReddit bans r/whalewatching thinking its a clone of r/fatpeoplehate. It was actually a real attempt at a whale watching community and has existed for +2 years. (archive.is)

Bravo, admins. Bravo.

They're just bombing everything even remotely related to the banned topics and I'm pretty sure that they don't have the time to check every single sub when they have to ban (potentially) hundreds of them... sooo they nuke it from the orbit and reinstate the unrelated ones if someone complains loud enough.

A standard procedure in the coming months and (hopefully not) years at Reddit HQ. :D

Reddit admins apparently can't quickly visit a sub to see if whale watching is actually about whales.

Sucks even more that their attempts at making a new sub will get deleted too.

apparently can't quickly visit a sub to see

At this point, I doubt that they do it at all. There's most likely a semi-automated process in place where the staff just feeds keywords to a ban script (which then maybe looks at the presence of some complaints against the given sub and/or the people in the sub). Easy. It goes completely against their "We're banning behavior, not ideas" claims, but whatever... who cares, only Misogynists, am I right?

It's double-plus ungood.

[–]Cu_Gorm [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

It was automated. "Whale" is probably a filter word for subs now.

[–]mscomies [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Hopefully not years because hopefully Reddit won't be around for much longer.

[–]Vkmies [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Well, this is the kind of completely half-assed assholism that breeds stuff like #RedditRevolt. Not being able to hate on fat people is not going to make the masses leave, despite people not supporting the move. But this sort of idiocy is going to make people leave. When the mods cannot even be bothered to do their shit job properly and "hurting innocents" in the process. This has gone past the point of absurdity, I find it hilarious and terrible at the same time. Not sure if I should laugh or cry.

This proves it is not about harassment. It's about the personal agendas of individual admins and Chairwoman Pao.

[–]Cu_Gorm [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

According to the sub's page it was an autoban.

Excellent work admins, I'm sure all the Cetaceans are thankful for your removal of that vile sub that encourages voyeurism on innocent, peaceful, ocean-dwelling mammals.

[–]ExpendableOne [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Those whalophile creeps got what they deserved. Finally the admins are doing something against whale-rape culture.

[–]sean_seany [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

I heard the feminist action group representing /r/Plankton are behind this.

The Whales have been raping the shit out of the oceans for over 9000 years. Often spectated by those damned Sea Lions.

/sarcasm

EDIT :

DISCLAIMER I didn't realise that was a real sub. I AM JOKING OBVIOUSLY

[–]lets_move_to_voat [スコア非表示]  (2子コメント)

yes, a sub with 15 subscribers that has been totally inactive 2 years along with its creator. What a tragedy.

People were obviously using it as a /r/fatpeoplehate backup.

[–]DonQuixoteLaMancha 37ポイント38ポイント  (2子コメント)

I doubt that'll be the last innocent casualty in this war.

It's about creating SafSpas from Reddit ++ungood behavior.

[–]YosharianWalks around backward with his sword on his hip [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

No... This is a joke, right?

Surely they didn't ban it just because the title looked vaguely suspicious...

I've been saying this is what we needed to call posts about randi harper..

Fucking reddit admins suck at this game.

[–]StayingOccupied [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

It's almost as if people are reporting subs for harassment to see how lazy the admins are and sitting back and profiting. Weird.

What did it look like immediately before being banned? I see some less savoury characters like archangelleshiftless on the mod team there. Possible that the sub was derailed?

[–]One_bad_escapist [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Holy shit. Really? Are you kidding me? This... this can't be real...

Just... How the fuck is anyone supposed to trust these fucking admins to enforce their own self-imposed rules correctly now? This is a gigantic fuck up. And I think the reddit admins just proved to everyone that they're fucking stupid.

Any slight guise of these fools being professionals has been completely lost now. What the fuck else needs to be said about this absurdity? "Banning a sub of literal whale watching for harassment"..... bahahahaha!

[–]1v1meinminecraft [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

It's because they ban behavior, not ideas. It makes sense if you don't think about it.

[–]TheMightyDuge [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

The subreddit discussed various ways of watching, or should i say RAPING, whales without their permission. These whales need our help to be able to succeed in life.

Check your privilege

HAHA. The Pao train is already derailing.

The crazy train keeps going until it runs out of track my dear shitlord.

Keep Digging, Reddit ...

Voating on your replacement as you lose money is getting easier...

This thread is misleading. That sub is not an innocent whale watching sub. It was being used in parlay with the fph fiasco. Don't be fooled by this post.

[–]sinnodrak [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

The admins have now officially jumped the shark (or whale?) on safe spaces.

That's fucking hilarious, although I feel bad for the people who were genuinely watching whales there.

Goes to show an outraged SJW is by far our best recruiter.

"Banning behavior not ideas" my ass.

They've fucked up big time and are only making things worse.

All subreddits will now be scanned over for any potential references of words which might offend.

[–]plspirit[🍰] [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Evidence they don't even look at the subs they ban anymore.

FPH mods took control of it. It had to go. https://archive.is/SuBjH

[–]Gazareth [スコア非表示]  (2子コメント)

So they are just banning every subreddit associated with certain people...

Why not just ban those people?

[–]No-Shit-Sherlock [スコア非表示]  (1子コメント)

The cached snapshot of the subreddit is extremely misleading since it shows only actual whale watching submissions from years ago... but Google did manage to cache some of the more recent posts after the subreddit was taken over by fatpeoplehate supporters but before the subreddit was banned and it was quite clearly being used for spamming fatpeoplehate crap to /r/all. E.g. I'm unsure what kind of whale this is. (ctrl-f imgur to see the actual submission and comments).

[–]kalphis 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

LMAO. Keep making more whale subs.

[–]Hypnoflow [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

It was derailed by this whole "hating fat people" circlejerk. Fucking A. I'm actually mad about this because, before, it actually was about observing cetaceans. Then people had to continue the "jerkle of life" and overran the place.
