I don't think any subreddit 'needs' to get shut down unless it's peddling CP. But in this case the reason why it got shut down is because reddit has a sort of unofficial sitewide policy about banning subreddits which are overtly hateful. /r/incels was full of countless posts about raping/murdering/kidnapping women, and the admins of the subreddit didn't seem to give a stuff.

Operating word being SOME. I am aware most of these guys are just fat loving stuffholes.

Yeah, I guess that's fair. Like I said, I know most of them are stuffholes but there are a few guys out there that just need some encouragement so they don't become one of those stuffholes.

Earlier today in a Discord I mod based off a subreddit, we discussed the nature of Reddit. The problem is that if you subscribe and contribute to a sub, you're going in because you agree/like that content. It becomes a kind of echo chamber, which builds in intensity as more people with similar opinions and values start sharing their slightly differing perspectives.

Incels is not a healthy place for a person with genuine inter-personal issues. They will find no help in that kind of environment.

Torin, what's wrong? Why are you so incredibly hostile to literally everybody? It's not even funny or necessary, it's just straight up attack anybody randomly.

These guys need a psychologist, not a safe space to talk about how much they hate women
