/r/cumtown was Chapo adjacent and also got the axe. Part of the dirtbag left or whatever they go by now.

Cumtown the podcast is chapo adjacent, /r/cumtown the subreddit was much closer to the The_Donald than chapo with its content.

Were you on the subreddit?

Yes, it got significantly edgier after going private.

Yet r/stupidpol has (so far) managed to survive, which was the original Chapo Trap House podcast subreddit.

edit/ There are quite a few actually disgusting subs that have managed to evade this ban, in addition to a few which I kind of expected to see banned that survived. There are also quite a few which are basically worse versions of a subreddit that was in the banwave which leads me to conclude that the Reddit admins simply don't know that they exist.

/r/stupidpol should absolutely be banned if they're banning subreddits. It's everything bad that people thought the Chapo subreddit was, plus a ton of bigotry and genocide apologia.
