The problem was that the admins said they deleted /r/thefappening on the grounds that it was immoral and wrong, destroyed people's privacy and they didn't want it on their website.

That's all fine and good, but that's not why they did it. They did it because they got heat from the celebrities and lawyers, and saw it as a bad press/business situation. They could have said that and it would have gone over better. But they didn't, and instead made up a bullshit excuse. On top of that, it's hypocritical for them to say that they took it down because 'aww poor celebs', but then leave up other subs that have voyeur content and pics of women without consent with the only difference being that the sub that got taken down was for rich, powerful people. In addition, saying you want reddit to be virtous, and then allowing shit like /r/rapingwomen or /r/theredpill is a bunch of crap

They should have just said it was a business decision straight off.

Hi Nathan! I was wondering if you have any retrospective thoughts on your "Why You Hate Contemporary Architecture" article from 2017. I personally agree with most of it, but given that it ignited (well, maybe fueled) a still-ongoing intra-left feud about whether Brutalism Is Good, have the intervening few years changed your opinions on architecture and aesthetics in any way?
