Well, the article put it really well -- if reddit dies because of the end of those hatemongering subreddits, then it deservers to die. In practice, it's not going to die, or even get close to it. If the past has taught us anything about reddit is that people will remember this for about as long as Dory remembers what the last sentence said was. Still, some people will leave reddit. These people will probably be more old time reddit users that are tired of the community that trolls. Trolls will continue trolling around there, and, if anything, might try to switch to voat (since the interface and functionality is pretty much the same, as compared to hubski).
