There's sure to be a whole lot of "tell your CEO to fuck himself"s getting thrown around.

Spez went into The_Donald and edited comments to make them appear to be "inciting violence" in order to have grounds to ban the subreddit.

THAT is straight up bullshit. I don't care what your politics are, THAT is bullshit. Then, take into consideration that MANY subs banned people for NO reason other than subscribing to certain subs for people who had opinions that differed from the prevailing policies regarding a certain virus.

Reddit was founded by a guy who actually believed in free speech.

Seems a little over the top. Absolutely nothing would happen to someone wearing a reddit top, other than maybe asking why they're wearing it.

To be fair, and whilst I am poking fun at the article with the description, unfortunately there are bound to be at least a couple of crackpots that would try and incite violence, regardless of the fact that the vast majority of Reddit staff likely don't agree with what's been going on either.
