Has Anyone else seen an uptick of masked Vigilante/might-makes-right propaganda on reddit the last week?

General discussion

I'm a frequent visitor to r/all and just saw a high up voted post from r/amazing about a father killing a person who violently abused his child and how authorities didn't press charges.

It struck me as odd as it's not something that would be classified as "amazing"; that in fact seems like a personal hell to experience either one, let alone both of those events.

Looking into the comments many of the users had that odd user name of "noun_noun_#".

With the recent events and escalation of ICE this seems like trolls and bot farms are instilling "it's OK to kill/hurt/maim" topics in odd spots just to be up voted to the front page.
