Bullshit.

I saw the screenshots. The upvotes didn’t even break 2 digits. At most, the comments would get removed and the users banned. Saying it makes sense for the entire sub to be taken down for the dozen or so idiots is, undeniably, bullshit.

The same types of comments have been made on lemmy. The instances did not get taken down or any legal action. Suggesting otherwise is nonsense.
