    A lot of these cringe subreddits, very specifically cringetopia and its predecessor cringeanarchy have a culture that can be traced back to kiwifarms.

    Kiwifarms is a forum dedicated to the stalking and harassment of people on the internet its users have deemed especially funny to harass. In practice, this usually results in them harassing transgender people, people with autism, and people who suffer from mental health problems. There have been cases where they've driven their targets to suicide, if I recall correctly.

    That really tells you all you need to know, just some despicable shit. That reddit allows anything to do with that is extremely unsurprising.
