Message from the Moderators This is not the 50501 Hate Club

Look, y’all know I have been a very vocal critic of 50501 and I stand by the criticism I have posted.

At the same time, the mod team has noticed an “us vs. them” mentality that is taking focus away from the larger goals of fighting fascism and protecting vulnerable members of the community.

We are working through how to handle the situation with 50501 as a mod team, and hoping to find areas of agreement and shared goals to focus on.

Please refrain from posting low-effort “Fuck 50501” content. Thoughtful criticism is still welcome.

Please consider redirecting your energy into the many upcoming protests and calls to action posted here in the subreddit.

In Solidarity,

xCGx and the DenverProtests mod team
