    Establishing same communities is not mutually same as copying over Reddit. Reddit does not have a copyright over communities unless its stormfront or jailbait.

      Stormfront? Do you have objections to a subreddit that has media of cloud formations?

        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stormfront_(website)

        Stormfront is a neo-Nazi Internet forum, and the Web’s first major racial hate site.[2][3] The site is focused on propagating white nationalism, Nazism, antisemitism (especially anti-semitic conspiracy theories) and islamophobia, as well as anti-feminism, homophobia,[4] transphobia, Holocaust denial, and white supremacy.[5][6]

        Stormfront began as an online bulletin board system in the early 1990s before being established as a website in 1996 by the former Ku Klux Klan leader and white supremacist Don Black.

        How the fuck are you a moderator of feminism and moderate politics communities?

          I’m perfectly aware of Stormfront in the broader context. But if we’re speaking of Reddit, someone beat the Nazis to the punch and reserved r/Stormfront for more benign content. Maybe do your research?

          As for why I am a moderator on [email protected], it’s more of a caretaker position at the moment. I would much rather it go to a woman who is well versed in feminist thought. Moderate politics is an outpost of r/moderatepolitics, where I’m on the moderation team.
