Or maybe they were directing their users to promote violence (not saying its true, but a possible scenario for an acceptable ban).

Further, it is wrong to ban the entire community for threats made by individuals. If there are individuals making threats, ban the individuals.

We should be happy about this. Reddit is going the way of Digg before it. Only this time, there is memo, and that can't go down the same corporate path. If anything, lets encourage it.

true. seeing memo mentioned on more subs as the backup & even ideal solution (distributed, uncensorable, etc)
replied 2263d
Also, we do not know if the threats were actually from members of the community or posted added as an excuse to ban the community.

We also don't know if individual members made threats and the mods allowed/joined the individuals makings threats even after being warned about it.

true, there are cases of promoting violence that have stayed up. & so far the banned subs are all right wing. so seems unlikely 🤷‍♀️?
