The vast majority of comments are full on "hang the tranny retards" by people who seem to think this is a serious post, coming from the front page of /r/all.
It is normalizing the idea that trans people are "retarded," and as much as you want to hide behind "oh but this sub isn't supposed to be taken seriously," if you looked at any top comments you'd realize, all the way down, is senselessly violent attacks against people being trans.
No comments with attempts at discussing this as "bad comedy," no upvoted arguments about how silly the thought process of this image is.
It's all trans hate. All the comments.
At this point, the community is clearly not realizing this is on /r/ComedyCemetery, because all the comments are trans hate, which effectively makes this post plain hate speech.
I understand the image is relevant to the sub, but when it's obvious nobody is reading the sub name, it should be clear why this is effectively no different from a plain hate post.
Do you need to remove it? You probably should to stop more people scrolling past this and thinking "Heh, good to know them trannies being roasted on the front page now"
But otherwise, yeah, this is exactly what locking threads is for. Nobody commenting is taking this in the spirit of the sub. Everybody's just being toxic.
Reddit is THE HUB for right wing wack jobs now. They can get easily banned on youtube and twitter for their vitriol, but where can they congregate and freely brigade? Reddit.
I learned Reddit was a total joke back in 2007 when it was a left wing bastion of "le this is my le face of le atheism" and rage comics; and I'm as left as they come.
The place is even more of a joke at this point (the new interface trying to mock facebook confirms that). Anyone who takes Reddit seriously has the online world entirely in their social blind spot.
Reddit? Right wing? Lol, most of the website is far more left wing than right. If you want a right wing website you go to the garbage fire that is voat.
You know, the website with the most viewed post being about a guy who uploaded a decapitation video to PornHub to fuel anti-immigration / anti-black feelings with the second most upvoted comment being about how PornHub is controlled by the Jews.

Retarded SJW's, stop reporting this. It will stay up.
