Looks like the ritual cleaning up for advertisers, always the ugliest part of a startup with a &quot;community.&quot; The ritual middle finger to the people who made them what they are, delivered in the softest of language and protesting that they have the most wholesome of motivations.<p>From imgur&#x27;s statement <i>We value free speech and self-expression incredibly highly [...] But we also won&#x27;t allow content that makes other groups of people feel alienated or unwelcome</i><p>It&#x27;s just depressing that they&#x27;re always so disingenuous.
