Didn't Reddit hire a child predator to moderate communities for children and then delete discussions about it because said moderator was trans? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aimee_Challenor

the predator was this person's father, not the person

I find it interesting that suddenly the censorship and admin intervention is a bad thing now that Reddit is becoming "too greedy" for their IPO but when this happened or subs that went against the mainstream Reddit narratives were banned (first quarantined to slowly suffocate them) it was cheered on.

This is just the next logical conclusion of user and narrative control.

On pdw to this day we use "spez" instead of "edit" when editing a post

Are people downvoting this comment because they disagree with the political affiliation?

Probably just because it's a boring comment that doesn't add to discussion? (r/the_donald was doing that in 2016)

Editing other people's comments to make it look like they wrote something different is not the same as not wanting to host toxic communities.

What quarantined subreddit are you specifically upset about and why do you think a specific company should have to make it as accessible as possible?
