Linuxsucks101 genuinely needs to be reported Spoiler
gallery(Not about the fact that it is a ragebait sub specifically)
I hate talking about this in any linux sub, especially because I don’t want to give this sub attention, but this sub has actual spiraled into blind bigotry. Racist and transphobic people are allowed in there and theres a fucking N word mockup that is also a permanent tag in their subreddit. Loonixer is a portmanteau of Linux, "Loon" and the N word. Disgusting.
As ironic as this sounds, they’re not the ones being harassed, rather, these people go to random Linux discussions, completely interrupt them with their shitty opinions, then post their rant onto linuxsucks101 WITHOUT anyone initially ever mentioning the sub by the way. We all know the sub is a echo chamber, but this goes as far as harassing random people who don’t even know of the sub.
Essentially what they do is screenshot random photos of Linux discussion (without people even mentioning or talking about the sub) then post it to their subreddit all collectively making fun and taking the piss on someone who doesn’t even know, or see them.
If you can, I'd suggest to report this subreddit under Hate Speech & Harassment. You can do that clicking this link. With all the proof given here, and with all the proof in the sub just laying there, I am pretty sure this can make a strong case.
If you also have more screenshots of bigotry thats not moderated in Linuxsucks101, help out, by posting proof under this thread to give more proof towards a report! :) It is very much appreciated, and will definitely help in getting this hateful subreddit taken down for good.
I will not ask to give this sub attention, just to report it and move on. Only until, this sub was a mild inconvenience which you could just ignore. I don’t think so now with the transphobia and racism that are allowed in there without the sole mod doing anything. I hate to give ragebaiting subs attention as I feel the correct way to deal with them is to ignore them, but it seems like worse is being done here.
Given the only mod and their alts are probably going to scramble and panic-purge some stuff from there after a warning (like this one) is posted to protect their sub, I’d figure I can give you some initial proof to start with.
(CW: Racism and Transphobia mentioned, and in these screenshots. You have been warned.)
Thank you
