They have been purging subreddits for years that are not advertiser friendly, usually after they get media attention. Really no reason to expect them to stop the purges. There is a reason I am here and not there, and that is just one of them.

I'm still angry at what happened to WatchPeopleDie.

Is there a similar community here on the fediverse?

These aren’t 100% the same thing. But the first has lots of Russian invaders being killed, and the second is an adjacent community.
