You're wrong http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/28js8v/i_am_julian_ass...
They are few and far between, but this is a gem: http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/28js8v/i_am_julian_ass...

#23Am I the only one that finds Assange to be just an absolute self-centered ass? He's trying to turn himself into a cult leader, and runs his own "justice" site[0].
He's manipulative and just leaves a sour taste in my mouth.

#24Many Redditors seem to lack patience. Calling it the worst AMA because there are not many answers after 20 minutes is really impolite. Sometimes I need more time just to write a two sentence email reply. Give Julian the time he needs.
Well, the answers have been pretty boring so far. IMO.

He comes off that way to me as well, but I still really support some of the initiatives he's worked towards. To a lesser extent, I find RMS to have similar traits. Some of his statements carry quite the air of arrogance and self-importance, but I think he's done enough for caused that I really believe in that I'll always listen to what he has to say regardless of personality.

#26Reddit is an awful place full of awful rules and awful people and plenty of censorship and manipulation of topics and comments , manipulated by real people and also bots they have created to monitor conversations. They shadow ban topics and comments to create an illusion of fair conversation. They have the collective ego of being relevant but are nowhere near the level of facebook or twitter or instagram. Or even Yah…
You do know Hacker News shadow bans users, has a list of certain domains that are outright banned, and has a moderation team that occasionally kills stories, right?
Don't forget the title editing hours after posting, invalidating at least some comments.

Don't get me wrong, I support some of the initiatives as well, I just wish those initiatives had a less self-interested leader.

Judging by your comment history, you seem to exist here just to make derogatory remarks about reddit. Could be time to move on to more fertile ground before your account goes [dead]. Reddit isn't really my kinda thing so I don't go there (except now and again for a particular sub-reddit I find topical for me at this time).
Find a community you do enjoy engaging with, ignore the ones that spike your blood pressure. Life is too short.

Can you substantiate any of that with evidence?
