Reddit temporarily banned a page over threats directed at staff of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) after Elon Musk accused users of breaking the law, according to multiple posts online.
Users on multiple pages were engaging in “threats and doxing,” prompting the site to issue 72-hour bans against some of them, including “r/WhitePeopleTwitter,” a Reddit Safety post said. They noted that the pages violated Reddit Rules and described the shutdowns as a “cooling-off period.”
Users on the popular social media app were sharing posts with threatening language directed at members of the DOGE Team, according to screenshots from Reddit Lies.
“Time to hunt,” one user posted, the images showed, while another apparently wrote “lets drag their necks up by a large coil up rope.”
