Does anyone have a clue as to how the public freak out subreddit went from chud central to actually be quite good (very pro Palestine and slaps down actual antisemitism)? (hexbear.net)

I haven't spent any time on Reddit since discovering Lemmy last summer, but what I remember of that subreddit's culture makes me similarly surprised about the vibe you found. That's honestly kinda cool and awesome and maybe a little hopeful.

I’m just worried it’s chuds who found an “acceptable” outlet for antisemitism. But it seems to be mod supported and somewhat imposed on a large chunk of the user base. Maybe some key people got reached?
