Reagan of course was speaking against the idea that criminals shouldn't be held responsible for their actions because "society" but the logic works the other way around too, society should not be held responsible for the criminal.
I don't know what the context of this was but I'm assuming his political message was against the general leftist notion that violent criminals are mostly just misguided, demoralized, oppressed etc. members of the proletariat who first and foremost need to be rehabilitated and reeducated by an army of social workers, therapists, counselors etc., all paid for with large sums of tax money, instead of getting heartlessly imprisoned etc.
As far as I know, the reason multiple leftist subreddits either got banned or decided to go private themselves was that the grossly partial mods absolutely refused to moderate commenters calling for mass murder, political assassinations, gulaging, doxxing, violence, wishing for the suicide of political enemies etc even after multiple warnings from above, and the central leadership of Reddit (whatever the heck they are called) eventually decided to act even though they are mostly leftists themselves because it was clear to anyone what a big liability the entire situation is.
