I wouldn't be able to adequately and fairly summarize it. The mod being discussed probably spent more time posting new threads than posting comments, but was the first to reach 1 million karma, remained top 10 karma until 2020ish and is still one of the top ranking by karma even though they haven't posted anything since 2 days before Ghislaine Maxwell's arrest. This person isn't someone I ever interacted with either, even though they were a powermod of many of the top subreddits.
Interesting. I highly doubt it's GM behind the account. It takes a lot of work to get an account up that high and GM was constantly traveling and abducting women. Plus like why? Why would someone like her bother to cultivate a power mod account? Is abducting girls to sell not enough power over people for her?
Influence is the currency of power. As a power mod of the most visible subreddits she would've had a lot of influence over information served to millions of people. She was involved in the silicon valley tech bubble and all of her siblings had careers in tech as well.
Yeah, but being a reddit mod and power user, regardless of how big you are, is still the lowest rung on the power-having totem pole. I can't think of anyone that gets mocked on reddit more then mods. Maybe furries, but at least some of those mods deserve it. It just doesn't seem like the kind of power someone in her position would bother to have
