The rule that an inactive top moderator may not make the unilateral decision to close down a large, active subreddit against the wishes of the active mod team is years old and was first applied in 2018 against r/KotakuinAction
That doesn’t make it disinformation. The re-opening of kotakuinaction was abhorrent at the time.
So the top mod finally realized how much hate and misogyny they were pushing and how it was making reddit as a whole worse? so they shut it all down?
Apparently spez really sympathizes with people who push hate and misogyny, because he opened it right back up for them. Even though the site really would have been better with it gone and without their constant brigading and non-stop harassing of women in the gaming community.
It was a bullshit reason then, and it’s a bullshit reason now. Back then it was used to help fucking horrible people stay online and have a voice, and now it’s being used as a strike breaker. The “rule” only exists because they didn’t want to lose ad impressions from misogynists. So give me a fucking break.
spez can eat shit and anyone parroting this “ThAtS dIsInFoRmAtIoN” bs can eat shit too.
