They didn't walk anything back, they just hid their true intentions. I have no idea what that sub is supposed to be, but it's just a bunch of factory settings NPC outrage bait. Whitey bad, cops bad, Christians bad. It looks like it consists entirely of a feed that's cultivated by a bot that just scrapes leftist news sites for certain keywords. I genuinely wouldn't be surprised to learn a human being hasn't posted there in years.
