Chambers, PLEASE BAN INCEL SUBREDDITS

I'm tired of seeing this shit not being talked about. I'm tired of seeing this shit being allowed to continue. I'm tired of seeing 'free speech' being used to condone terrorism and hate speech. I'm tired of the constant misogyny women face every day being allowed on this platform.<br><br>I'm a chick. I use chambers because my friends have been begging me to join and I finally did. I liked it, and I still do - it's a great platform, and there's a lot of good in it. However, I've been sick to my stomach at the volume of incel activity.<br><br>I'm not going to post screenshots because I don't want to give them the satisfaction of knowing I care, but I've seen so many posts - on r/redscarepod, r/kingcobrajfs (which is already like... Uh?) - these sorts of chambers, that have large amounts of incel activity. But the most I've seen are on r/roosterteeth. This chamber was meant to be for fans of Rooster Teeth, but it's devolved into what feels like just another chamber for incels to manifest their hatred.<br><br>I have reported literally hundreds of comments, and I've been downvoting and reporting since July of this year. I even made a post about it which was heavily downvoted and I got plenty of death threats over. 'If you don't like it, leave.' That sort of thing. It's truly disgusting.<br><br>These people are actively promoting the degradation of women. They are actively promoting andPLANing terrorist attacks. They are actively promoting misogyny, sexism, and bigotry. They're saying that all women should be raped, that we should be removed from public life, that we should be 'put in our place' and that sort of thing.<br><br>This has gone too far. We need action, and we need it now, before someone is hurt.<br><br>Edit: I'ma read through every comment, so if I haven't responded to you, please give me a moment! I'm getting a lot so it's taking me a while. But, I just want to say, thank you so much for hearing me. You have no idea how much it means to me.<br><br>Edit #2: Okay, so I've pretty much stopped getting notifications, so I'm going to assume that's all. Thank you all so, so, so much. I've never felt so supported and loved in my life, and I'm so grateful to every single one of you. Thank you so, so much. I'm reading through every single one, and I'm trying to respond, but there's a lot, and I'm still getting notifications from people replying to my responses, so if I haven't replied, please know I'm trying. And, I just wanna say, this is the cruelest thing any of you could possibly do. I'm a young girl, I'm trying to navigate the world. I'm trying to figure out who I am, and I'm trying to do it in a world where I'm constantly being told I'm lesser. This may have been funny to you in the moment, but it's continuing to affect me, even if you've stopped. Please think about what you do, and how it affects people in the long run. We're all human, and we all deserve respect.<br><br>Edit #3: Somehow, I'm still getting notifications. I'm still going through them, but I thought you guys would like to know that, so far, over 1,000 people have seen this post. I would have never imagined that it would get this much reach, so, once again, I'm so very grateful to all of you. Thank you.<br><br>Also, to the people who have or are going to message me and try to DM spam me with porn, or try to harass me - this is exactly what I'm talking about. This is exactly what I'm standing up to, and I will not back down. I will not stop until something is done, and I will not stop until you all know that you're not welcome, and you're not safe. This may be fun to you, but it's not. You're just making your lives worse. And, just as a side note, I have screenshots of every single one of you, and I will not hesitate to report you, and to get you banned, because that's exactly what you deserve.<br><br>Edit #4: I am overwhelmed, and dare I say it, slightly tearful. I have cried a little. I'm so touched, and I'm in shock. I didn't know this was going to blow up like this, and I'm so overwhelmed by the support all of you have given me. I am so, so grateful to every single one of you. Thank you so much. My heart is feeling full, and I want to say thank you to every one of you. I'm trying to go through all the comments, but, once again, there are a lot. I'm trying my hardest, but if I haven't responded to you, please be patient, because there is a lot, and I'm one person. I'm trying, and I'm grateful, and I love and appreciate every single one of you.<br><br>Okay, so now that that's out of the way, I've got enough to take to heart and I'm going to contact them. I'll contact chambers and chambers mods in the next couple of hours and, if I get a response, I'll post it here. I know you guys have all suggested different ways to do this, so I'm going to Compile them and use them when I do. I will also post the screenshots, and the compiling of the data I've collected in a different post. I want this to stay focused on the issue and the main point, which is to get action. I want to say, thank you to those who shared their stories and their experiences. I'm so sorry that this happened to you, and I believe you. I'm so grateful to you all, and I'm crying as I write this. Thank you all so, so, so much, and I love you all.<br><br>There's a lot of people suggesting that I shouldn't do this by myself, and that someone else should do it if it gets this big, but, I want to reiterate something: I do not care if I get shadowbanned or banned. I would delete my chambers account forever if it meant that something was done, and I would do it happily. My chambers account means nothing to me in comparison, and I would happily do it if it meant that it helped.<br><br>I'm going to try to stop editing, because I know it's spammy, but, once again, thank you so, so much.<br><br>Edit #5: I've compiled the data, and it's a lot. I've contacted a few mods, and a few different people, and I'm going to send it to them. One mod has already agreed, and I have sent them the data, and they said they'll look through it and get back to me when they have. They said that it would be a while because there's so much, which I'm happy with. I just want to say, once again, thank you. Thank you all so much. I've never felt this supported, this loved, this cared for in my life. I am so happy, and I'm so grateful. I'm still going through the comments, and I'm still trying to respond, and I'm sorry if I haven't responded to you. But, I am trying. I'm also trying to respond to the messages and the spam those of you who disagree with me have sent, so, once again, please be patient.<br><br>Thank you all, and once again, I love you all.
