Doesn't matter, it drives user engagement and website traffic. Easy way to show to advertisers that Reddit is very much alive. They don't care what is drawn, as long as it's nothing illegal or bad for advertisers. People want to spend 24h to write "fuck u/spez"? Sure, whatever.

Sure, American advertisers don't like that, but foul language is all over Reddit, so that's not something that will drive advertisers away that would otherwise consider advertising on Reddit.
