Something big is happening, as Reddit seems to have purged literally every NSFW sub they know. Reason is always "unmoderated" despite some of the banned subreddits being fully moderated.

Edit: seems to have been a bug in automation (thanks @lefty7283@lemmy.world):

It's still a good reminder on how quickly a community (or communities) thousands of people enjoy and in some cases rely upon can disappear.

They lost the chance to scapegoat the gays after they failed to in the 80s during the AIDS epidemic

Now there's too many gay people in the population to keep them down.

Once we get over this hurdle the same will be true for Trans people.

    Well if we made more gay people, let's just make more trans people. Problem solved!

    This is literally what right wingers accuse trans people trying to engage with kids in public of doing. Like trans story time, or trans teachers. That they're going to trans their children, like it's some kind of vampire curse.
