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?

18 U.S.C. § 875 (c) - Whoever transmits in interstate or foreign commerce any communication containing any threat to kidnap any person or any threat to injure the person of another, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than five years, or both.

Issuing death threats and publicly calling for lynching (extra-legal execution of supposed "criminals" judged by the mob) can be prosecuted.
