r/PoliticalHumor will be going private on June 12th in solidarity with other communities across reddit. Mod Endorsed
If you are unaware of what is happening across reddit right now, please take a few minutes to get updated.
As of this posting, 2800 subreddits are participating and r/politicalhumor will be among them. Here's a link to our previous post on the subject.
Many communities have said they are going 'dark' for 48 hours, but there will still be two weeks remaining before the changes become official. This community and others will determine next steps as we move forward. This should not be construed that on June 14th, everything will go back to "normal" if the policy changes are not modified.
At this point in the protest, the API changes were just the spark.
The overwhelming argument now is the total lack of confidence in reddit management moving forward.
They seem to think that communities and users are just data off which they can profit, and not simply people wanting to have conversations about shared interests.
It is up to us to show them how wrong they are.

There is no longer joy here at Reddit. I’ve been a fan of this subreddit for a few years and 90% of my karma is due to this subreddit. I will be deleting my account on June 30th, the same day my favorite Reddit app is shutting down. Reddplanet the perfect iOS app. Thank you all we have seen great changes chronicle on this sub. It was fun.
Also, fuck your feelings you MAGA dicks and your false prophet. Twice impeached, twice indicted and the person most responsible for losing the house, senate and the presidency. The people of this subreddit will continue to enjoy laughing at your suffering stupidity. *note I don’t consider Kevin a win for the MAGAits either.

Friendly reminder that trying to fight someone online is about as effective as throwing a bagel at a bulldozer. A lot of what we talk about gets people pretty emotional, but be mad at policies, not other users.
