Reddit bans the word 'groomer', claiming it's an 'anti-LGBTQ+ slur'

Last week, the operators of the "Political Compass Memes" subreddit announced that they had been contacted by Reddit administrators in regards to certain words used by their over 500k members that were unpalatable to their cause. Among them was the term "groomer," often used to refer to someone who seeks to indoctrinate children in far-left gender identity ideology.

The move was slammed by LGBT group Gays Against Groomers, which suggested Reddit went the wrong way in deeming the term to be an "anti-LGBT slur."

"We have been contacted by the admins," PCM operators said in a post, urging members to "tone back your language and make a shift away from certain types of memes."
