Good on her for publicly calling it out.
I really don't know what they want anymore. How much cleaner than Reddit does it get? There is nothing left that is even remotely controversial. I'm so confused. The way he said BLACK candidate also feels really weird. We get it - you want to virtue signal. Make it a little less obvious.

The horrors we ban for are usually considered (by their submitters) to be perfectly normal, and we often have people starting debates with us about our own rules because other subreddits permit passive bigotry across race, gender, orientation, etc.
There's a lot. You've just closed your eyes to it. We've had mods quit because of the volume of crap.

The hypothesis is posed by Yishan Wong, an ex-CEO, with responses from Altman and Ohanian.
edit: I made a mistake understanding this story. Please see the correct timeline in geofft's comment.
Yup. It starts from the top and trickles down. Thats why the U.S is so far gone.
The funny thing is we will all be talking about a new case in the future. Then another high profile person will be throwing money at the situation. Maybe something different is needed?
Also how on earth are certain subreddits still up and running is just beyond me.
