      shouldn’t surprise anyone considering spez used to mod r/jailbait.

      So wouldn’t surprise me if she and her husband were buddy-buddy with Spez at some point. she clearly is still buddy-buddy with someone in the admin team or higher or simply several reddit mods.

      Reddit is a pedophile, facist, and zionist haven. If you’re still using reddit guess what? you’re having a pint of beer in a pedophile-nazi bar. get off it.

          Unless there’s more to that, the spez claim is probably bullshit. Obama was a mod of r/jailbait. Anyone could be added as a mod and they didn’t have to accept.

              He wasn’t actually a mod of it like people say he was just part of the administration team at Reddit at that point and they awarded the mod of Jailbait a custom badge. Still super weird, but yes you’re right he was never a active mod there. (Edited for clarity)

              He did edit comments made about himself though because his feewings got hurt which is completely unacceptable as well. Fuck Spez.

                  He was appointed a mod, which could happen without the user approval at the time. But he remained on the “mod team” until the sub was shut down a few years later.

                      Yes but wasn’t an active mod just was put on the list like anyone could have been at the time.

                      The Pimp Daddy award that they gave the active mod of that subreddit though is much more problematic in my opinion because that was a decisive decision.

                  And lemmy is full of people that say the tienamen square massacre was good and actively deny the uyghur genocide.

                  If you’re using lemmy, you’re having a pint with with genocide supporters, nevermind the extremely odd amount of loli enjoyers.

                      It’s a federated network and you can block .ml, grad, and hexbear yourself or chose an instance that is already defederated from them.

                                We’re getting into some pretty third-order issues at this point, I don’t think the nazi bar metaphor really holds up anymore

                                    It’s like paying working in the same town as the Nazi bar. Maybe your taxes do end up keeping the roads and sidewalks that do go past the bar, but to say that’s supporting the bar is a stretch

                                        He never said that he doesn’t support upper mentioned things. He just stated the fact.

                                          Im pointing out a double standard.

                                          I dont give a shit otherwise. Im just trying to have a good time in this late-stage capitalist hellscape where there is no ethical consumption.

                                              So the fact reddit is owned by pedophile and zionist is ok because of the uygurs?

                                            Nobody says it was good, the two camps are “it was bad” and “that’s not what happened at all”, and they’re 100% right about the fictional genocide

                                                    I got so sick of that subreddit years before I left Reddit. They basically want nothing to change at all, and are very condescending about how great they think things are going.

                                                            It’s entirely possible I’ve fallen for a smokescreen, but also there never seemed to be a whole lot of evidence that account was Ghislaine’s other than the name “Maxwell”, which is pretty common.

                                                                this claim started to look suspicious when people found that MaxwellHill had mentioned he/she had “visited” Malaysia before (which is not something one typically says about one’s home country).[2]

                                                                The account itself does not appear to have a post history since Ghislaine got “freed”. So adding it to the mod team of one of the biggest Reddit subs at that timing is just… Weird…

                                                                                  I wonder why she wouldn’t just start over with a whole new Reddit account.

                                                                                  Part of the thrill of reddit is anonymity, and her reddit account WAS fairly anonymous, although her reddit username is kinda close to her real name, nobody cared who she was until she was in the news, we started putting clues together, and figured out it was her, noticing how the timing of her incarceration aligned with the date her reddit account was abandoned.

                                                                                  Weird however after she was in jail her account started to delete incriminating things. If she was in jail with no access to her reddit account, who was deleting her self-incriminating reddit posts & comments? Who else could it have been but her lawyer?

If you don’t want the responsibility/risk then let someone else do it. Crazy how the biggest subreddits are being ran by secret groups coordinating outside of reddit itself.

                                                                                                          It also doesn’t really matter because Reddit has gone from trying to create centralized subs to doing the thing of putting everyone into their own cattle processing bubble. Try creating a new account and subscribing to the conservative sub if you want to experience how far to the side the rabbit hole goes. This is why young people are getting radicalized, their parents have no clue how their social networks are radicalizing them because they are getting a very different experience than them.

                                                                                                          Incidentally and seriously, a few days ago I tried doing account recovery to the outed Ghislaine Maxwell email on reddit to see if I could get a confirmation whether she had had an account on reddit or not. Unfortunately, the page was fortified against that sort of account presence checking vector, I just find it funny that it seems to have coincided with her return to worldnews - I doubt I was the only one to try it. I also tried to access the account with some of the passwords that had been leaked.

                                                                                                          Previously, a person who had claimed to work in the legal field had claimed ownership of the account in internal conversations and had denied being Ghislaine Maxwell. Which makes sense, her lawyer’s are not her, and they acted in about the same way legal representation wanting to keep things undercover would act. She also attended the same events in Silicon Valley as reddit CEOs did, like Ellen Pao revealed. There’s also a lot of work showing the coincidences between the posting / comment frequency and real life events Ghislaine Maxwell attended, and comments that were at least apologetic to pedophiles.

                                                                                                          After trying to recover her account, it’s the first time I ever got an account really shadowbanned and confirms that they’ve either begun to implement more stringent browser fingerprinting on their end (sessions were different but on the same machine and no browser obfuscation was present) or that they already have had it for quite a while but only seem to care to track them in certain cases. The account itself was rather new and benign, having tried to play nice avoiding controversial takes, so no cares given.

                                                                                                                  The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

                                                                                                                  Rules


                                                                                                                  Rule 1- No brigading.

                                                                                                                  **You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **

                                                                                                                  YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.



                                                                                                                  Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.

                                                                                                                  **No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **



                                                                                                                  Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

                                                                                                                  Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



                                                                                                                  Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

                                                                                                                  That’s it.



                                                                                                                  Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

                                                                                                                  Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



                                                                                                                  Rule 6- Regarding META posts.

                                                                                                                  Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



                                                                                                                  Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

                                                                                                                  If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

                                                                                                                  Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



                                                                                                                  Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

                                                                                                                  Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

                                                                                                                  Let everyone have their own content.
