Is there any actual evidence of this? Sharing a similar name is, of course, not proof of anything.
not really, but the account did become inactive right around the time she was imprisoned
It would be extremely enlightening to follow radicalisation and communication of, say, an incel terrorist.
There's a network of Dutch subreddits, 99% of which are managed by the same clique of mods. Recently I noticed comments I had posted in those subs over the last few months had completely been ignored. It turns out I have been shadowbanned, and not just on the primary /r/thenetherlands sub, but on every single one of the communities they manage. There is no apparent reason for them to have done this to me. My messages…
It's like going to a restaurant and finding out the FOH are there because they're big fans of the food. Oh and they can also dictate how the cooks do their job.
There needs to be people on Reddit's payroll watching over the moderators of big/default subs.

That screenshot is from /pol/ so I'm curious if the complaints about "censorship" were that people couldn't call it a china flu.
Of course, because for some reason this is suddenly unacceptable but it is ok to have an Indian variant or a Brazilian variant.
reddit tends to moderated by folks who've been wearing a mask around the clock for 1.5 years & rarely leave their comfort-zone. the comments are slowly reflecting the result of this^ sjw-ish, anti-capitalism, anti personal growth etc.
On the face of it seems strange why anyone would want to moderate popular subreddits, just seems like a lot of unpaid mundane and never ending work. Younger me might of been excited to do it from the perceived status perhaps. I do wonder how many off-site deals are done with moderators and third parties. There’s a lot of traffic these people are able to steward and influence I imagine.
I'm convinced the political subs are run by people employed by the two large US political groups

/r/thenetherlands is a joke. So many comments are being removed in order to "maintain community standards". I once posted a genuine question there: "Do you think /r/thenetherlands is an echo chamber?" "[Your post was removed for being off topic]" Oh well. Now I just don't use reddit anymore. My life is better because of it.

Nice to see the usual suspects on The Cabal. People who believe ivermectin is some kind of miracle covid drug (even the manufacturers say its ineffective) and those who deny COVID even exists. Quality people. https://ebm.bmj.com/content/early/2021/05/26/bmjebm-2021-111... https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-021-02081-w
Maybe you should not go into details¹. Because if you presented that evidence to specialists disagreeing with you, they would have their say. And this thread is unlikely to lure them specifically. Here, you are just making statements that cannot be tackled directly. But for the "there exist people who do not clearly appear as non-«quality people» and nonetheless disagree on some points". (Just to give an example: I h…
I highly recommend unsubscribing from all the default subreddits and only subbing to the programming related subreddits. It'll make your Reddit newsfeed more programming-oriented than HN and completely changes your experience with the site.

I'm not exactly motivated to ever return now that I've learned that this how active community members in good standing can expect to be treated.
Seems you weren't in good standing.
The mods can go .. themselves.
