THE GREAT REDDIT WAR OF 2015

At approximately 2pm EST on Wednesday, June 10th 2015, admins released this announcement post, declaring that a prominent subreddit, /r/fatpeoplehate (details can be found in these posts, for the unacquainted), as well as a few other small ones (/r/hamplanethatred, /r/transfags, /r/neofag, /r/shitniggerssay) were banned in accordance with reddit's recent expanded Anti-Harassment Policy.
The allegations are that users from /r/fatpeoplehate were regularly going outside their subreddit and harassing people in other subreddits or even other internet communities (including allegedly poaching pics from /r/keto and harassing the redditor(s) involved and harassment of specific employees of imgur.com, as well as other similar transgressions.
Important quote from the post:
We will ban subreddits that allow their communities to use the subreddit as a platform to harass individuals when moderators don’t take action. We’re banning behavior, not ideas.
To paraphrase: As long as you can keep it 100% confined within the subreddit, anything within legal bounds still goes. As soon as content/discussion/'politics' of the subreddit extend out to other users on reddit, communities, or people on other social media platforms with the intent to harass, harangue, hassle, shame, berate, bemoan, or just plain fuck with, that's when there's problems. FPH et al. was apparently struggling with this part.
As for the 'what about X community' answers are sparse at the moment. The comments section in the announcement thread is full of users asking about why one controversial community continues to exist while these are banned, and the only answer available at the moment is that A) they keep it confined to the sub and don't reach across platforms or subreddits to involve outside parties; or B) They will address each community reported to them in due time.
The announcement is at least somewhat in line with their Pledge about Transparency, but specific details and justifications are few at the moment. They will be provided to the best of our ability as developments continue.
*Shortly after the news broke, /r/fatlogic went private with the message: "Sub is going private until the backlash from FPH ban calms down. Check back in a few hours." As of 7:45pm EST they are still private, and no word yet when they aim to go back online. A few spinoff/duplicate/v2.0 subs have since sprung up and are being banned, or the creators are being banned. /r/redditrequest and this screenshot show how much activity is still going on around the subject and it's spinoff subs.
** As of 8:40pm, /r/subredditdrama reports that the following subreddits have been banned: /r/fatpersonhate, /r/fatpeoplehate2, /r/fatpeoplehate3, and /r/publichealthawareness. [Source] Along with this are reports that the mod teams of those aforementioned subs have been shadowbanned (for 'ban evasion' and possible further escalations).

Operation Moses: We need your help to lead the third exodus to 8chan for FPH users. (self.KotakuInAction)
submitted 24 minutes ago * by kiwikku
This isn't strictly related to KiA, since I think we'll be fine (mods won't dare touch a sub this powerful), but the recent FPH drama. Everyone there is looking for a new place to go, and Voat's servers are freaking out. They can't handle the rush. Rumors are also going around about how reliable their mod is. http://8ch.net/gamergatehq/res/196907.html#196919
Only 8chan is large enough to handle this exodus, at least for now. Time is of the essence, because if the users don't find another place to regroup, plan and organize immediately they will lose. For now, a new board has been created at http://www.8ch.net/fatpeoplehate/catalog.html and we need your help to spread the word.
Why should I care? Because if you can't see the resemblance of this to the start of #Gamergate then you need your eyes checked. We've been there already and we can help them out.
What can I do? Just spread the word about the new 8chan board. The rest will take care of itself. Raise the visibility anyway you can.
INJUSTICE ANYWHERE IS A THREAT TO JUSTICE EVERYWHERE
Anyone can fight for the freedom of opinions they like. It takes a true hero to fight for the wicked, the vile, the unpopular. Just when you think GG is down for the count the fire rises again. Thanks for reading and good luck.

I've been a reddit advertiser. Because of me, many of you got reddit for free.
No more. I'm done.
Also, I shop companies that advertise here.
No more. I'm done.
I've also bought some gold for people. This helps keep reddit free.
No more. I'm done gilding.
If a company I like advertises here, I will comment on their ad and let them know I have no desire to support them if they support censorship.
Fuck Chairman Pao. And fuck companies who pay her wages, a.k.a. advertisers on reddit.
When reddit fires this fascist, I'll advertise again.

Yup, I'm done too. Advertising a good product on Reddit worked well, because people could trust that if the comments weren't full of people saying the product was shit then it was likely an actual good product. Reddit just lost the "trust" the users had that the content and opinions of that content would not be censored.
