NOT sure if "relevant" … But Breitbart.com is timing out on me. Just me?
Not that I bought into all of his musings, but SB2 content is gone. No ban shown.

Beautiful democracy. Banning by straw poll. hahahahahahaha
Quote from the Newspeak article:
"Conspiracy theorists are predictably incensed about the ban, with one fellow redditor posting to r/conspiracy, 'Reddit is dead. Soon all mediums will be dead but truth is always truth.' Others theorize that the ban is a signal that The Storm has begun, finally fulfilling the thus-far faith-based promise of mass arrests and a coup."
So … Newsweek (Newspeak?), CNET, and The Verge are either (a) colluding with Reddit big dogs, or (b) watching The Movement with a microscope, or (c) all both (a) and (c).
From the Verge piece (cited by Q):
"The way Reddit approaches the problem internally is a bit more engaged, according to a source within the company familiar with the process. After a subreddit is banned for violating Reddit’s content policy, site admins can follow where the banned users go. And if another like-minded subreddit decides to host the fleeing community, admins ban those communities, too. Earlier this week, an official Reddit spokesperson told The Verge that “as of September 10th, r/milliondollarextreme and associate subreddits have been banned for violating our violent content rules,” which suggests that those associate subreddits, r/BillionShekelSupreme and r/ChadRight, were where the newly banned MDE community went next. The same thing appears to have happened to users of r/greatawakening and r/The_GreatAwakening."
