\"Reddit CEO Steve Huffman announced in a post on Monday that the message-board site had banned more than 2,000 subreddits that regularly broke its rules about harassment, hate speech, and targeting. One of those subreddits was r/The_Donald, a pro-Trump forum with more than 790,000 users.\
\...\
Other banned subreddits included right-wing forums like r/CampusConservative, r/thenewright, and r/rightwinglgbt, as well as some left-wing subreddits like r/ChapoTrapHouse and r/cumtown, run by fans of two leftist podcasts of the same names. A subreddit dedicated to trans-exclusionary radical feminism, r/GenderCritical, was also banned.\"\
