It's not just the worst. Its people that disagree with the current fad of "politically correctness." There were very few people that were sad to see most of those subs go, but those subs weren't well known.
The FPH was a response to the silly "body positive" movement that has been encouraging non-healthy behaviors. (The execution wasn't popular, but the idea of it is well supported)
Additionally: Another big reason for the migration is that the ban came out of nowhere. There was no interaction with the Admins, and there has been a threat that has been expressed by Pao. ["We're going to make it safe" (for who and what political adgenda has scared the users quite a bit)]
- unbudgingprawn 11y agoFPH was posting photos of imgur's staff and sending them hatemail, I belive.
- monksy 11y agoSo there is a question about that I have for you: Was it that they posted a picture of the staff of Imgur that hatemail was sent, or was hatemail sent because Imgur just decided to wipe them out? ---- Did FPH cross the line with the pic. Mostly yes... But they didn't put personal information on it. Nor was it an drive to attack them. (It was done in satire [even "the dog is fat"]
- unbudgingprawn 11y agoIs Imgur required to host FPH content? Imgur is a private website that can moderate content as it sees fit. They didn't want to be associated with a hateful community, imgur generally tries to encourage positivity from what I've seen. The appropriate response is not to harass people. It's amazing how difficult that concept is. What might seem like "satire" to you is pretty messed up behavior, and in others contexts would be an outright threat
- monksy 11y agoThey are free to choose not to host the content anymore. I believe that any hate mail that they recieved, that was the reaction due to their decision. (Not endorsed by the subreddit it's self)
- unbudgingprawn 11y agoThe mods were posting photos of imgur staff, and included the photos in the subreddit's css. Seems like strong endorsement to me
- zorpner 11y agoIts people that disagree with the current fad of "politically correctness." Given that the subs which were removed were not removed for offensive speech but rather for encouraging and tolerating criminal harassment off-site, these "people" are either extremely misinformed or are using free speech/political correctness as red herrings to conceal their desire to harass and abuse.
- s73v3r 11y agoIf you're one of the people who agree with the behavior of FPH and many of the more vile comments about the CEO, then you're part of the worst.
- monksy 11y agoThanks for the judgement.
