He looks exactly as you would imagine a reddit CEO to look like
I bet he’s wearing sandals, too. (No hate against sandals, only Silicon Valley CEOs.)
As it turns out, praising Musk is the new I Voted for Tr*mp.
Yep. It lets you know exactly where their head is at. I love the Mark Twain quote about (to) Vanderbilt:
You seem to be the idol of only a crawling swarm of small souls, who love to glorify your most flagrant unworthiness in print or praise your vast possessions worshippingly; or sing of your unimportant private habits and sayings and doings, as if your millions gave them dignity.
I had not seen that quote before, but I love it! It’s sad that it’s still so relevant.
Love to see it. Let that fuckwit shoot reddit in the snoo and watch as we all move to a federated model. We will win, the capitalists will lose. It’s science.
I don’t know enough about the Reddit thing, I only go on every few days to check cool videos, but I don’t like how some subs are protesting by posting John Oliver pictures, it’s really one of the worst memes I’ve heard of in the past few years. I liked seeing cool buildings and architecture on r/evilbuildings, now they voted to not post those anymore. I’m probably not gonna use Reddit if the subreddits don’t post what they say their subs are about
That’s… that’s kind of the point.
What’s happening is that the Reddit CEO is cannibalizing the community aspect of the site in pursuit of profit, and he keeps doubling down.
Various subreddits opted to go dark.
Reddit said to the moderators of those subreddits “open back up or we’ll replace you with someone who will”
Cue mods reopening with new rules. In the overwhelming majority of the wakes I’ve seen, these rules changes were ratified by community vote.
The whole thing reminds me of the end of Little House on the Prairie. A robber Baron decided that the entire town belongs to him as he technically held the deed for the land. Rather then accept his draconian rule, the people of the town jointly and severally blew up every building in the town and went elsewhere.
The robber Baron was pissed, but couldn’t do anything about it: the land may have been his, but the town they had built was theirs.
Edit: in regards to the John Oliver pictures: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/35819
That makes a bit more sense, I gotta say that John Oliver is cringe tho as are the vast majority of his fans
Wow, I really didn’t expect to see “protestors made my commute longer so now I’m pro global warming” type of critique here.
Surprising honestly.
