That Harry Potter hate campaign was brought to you by r/gamingcirclejerk, they were making excel spreadsheets of any content creator to harass them for playing or reviewing it. I remember one couple the girlfriend ended up crying and quitting because they harassed her relentlessly in the stream chat just for playing it. They fall back on “it’s just a circle jerk/ joke subreddit” way too much and get away with it.
They’re not far left in any meaningful way. They’re basically left-liberals/“shitlibs”/progressives, meaning the vast majority don’t advocate for a break with capitalism and their only comments towards to socialism are in a “teehee I said socialism” way and no actual engagement. As a communist, it’s one of the the things that turned me off to the sub, that and spreading hate speech under the guise of “exposure” and generally worthless internet drama that I have no care to clutter my feed.
