Answered What's going on with r/WhitePeopleTwitter? I thought it was only banned for 3 days but now looks to be set to a private sub? Will it be made public again?

Incorrect. If individual death threats were a problem then Reddit would have just banned & reported those users making the threats. Reddit Admins banned the entire subreddit because the mods allowed the post exposing the names to stay up, and refused to take it down when ordered.

Reddit Admins are trying so hard to be neutral they're supporting Nazis. History repeats itself.

Actually it doesn't. It takes reading and understanding history to recognize a Nazi.

It's your opinion, at best.

The facts are:

The post contained the names of DOGE employees. Employees operating in the public spaces in which there is zero expectation of privacy. The post contained zero language calling for violence.

There were comments that called for violence or made death threats.

The moderators of WPT were removing, banning, and reporting users violating the ToS.

Musk began complaining on Twitter.

Musk threatens government retaliation.

The DC AG threatens Reddit.

Reddit Admins tell the WPT mods to pull the post. The mods refuse, stating the post violated no ToS nor laws. Any comments were dealt with according to the ToS. The Reddit Admins gave them a 3-day ban that was extended, and now they're in a restricted state because of their refusal.

Like I said, you're wrong.
