The biggest PC gaming subreddit has blacklisted X for being 'hateful' and 'toxic', citing Elon Musk's 'distasteful' behavior

The 'distasteful' behavior presumably references the Nazi salute he delivered at yesterday's inauguration.

I don’t understand how animal crossing players could be so negative lol

So, not saying I was necessarily the good guy here; it was from things like when I’d make pins about a low-effort post’s title, or poke fun at other low effort content (something like a picture of the game being played somewhere).

I’m no stranger to downvotes or even sarcastic or rude replies – fair game! But this was the only sub I’d ever had people telling me to kill myself or that they hoped I’d die, lmao

The juxtaposition was amusing more than offensive, and the mods did a good job of cleaning it up, but it was still something pretty unique to the Animal Crossing subreddit for me! Lol

The internet can sometimes be a trying place, where the biggest fans are also the biggest critics and can’t think critically beyond pure hate.

I actually think federation will help this a bit, as breaking up fandoms into smaller better moderated pockets should help guide more civil discourse.
