This is an incorrect assessment of the facks. I believe it to be the same people that hate reddit for banning them....and me. You know... Good people ๐Ÿ˜. People who like and say weird shit.

I am the former admin for r/keitruck and r/Seattlegay. One day I started to notice hate messages. I might have replied. Then I noticed a deluged of that until one morning I got a message saying I was banned. I spent all my fun pandemic free time building those two places. So fuck reddit.
