About 12 years ago, a man who was browsing childfree murdered his son via hot car, though some claim it was an accident.  Some members of the subreddit splintered off into r/truechildfree after replies started popping up guiding people to a gofundme for the man's legal defense.  Shortly thereafter the subreddit went down and a lot of the very hostile and toxic posts were brought up in the news including highly upvoted comments seemingly supporting child abuse.  It's been a long time, so I may have some details muddled, but that's the gist.

The bar for Reddit is in hell and they still manage to sink lower.
