the truth is that those mods have demonstrated a sustained strategy of censorship and information control. they are petty and vindictive, and if they don't like you they will find a reason to remove you from "their" subreddit that they believe and act as if belongs to them.
pretty terrible community leaders, that's what they are.
personally i am embarrassed by the behavior of those mods. they have poisoned what was once a great subreddit and community.
The SS mods have been sus af for a very long time, mods in general usually sway that way as well. I get that the dumb ass admins put extra pressure on SS but that doesn't excuse all the bs
Keep in mind that the mods are doing what rich assholes tell them to do. Like politicians are used to stir outrage.
That's why we're succeeding; we're not buying the drama, we're buying shares.
I'm betting that many recent moves on Reddit were implemented to distract from useful narratives and churn ethical mods out. Thus we have Platinum Sparkles.
