Summary
Elon Musk privately pressured Reddit CEO Steve Huffman to address content moderation after publicly criticizing Reddit on X for banning links and allegedly hosting violent content.
Shortly after Musk’s messages, Reddit imposed a 72-hour ban on the “WhitePeopleTwitter” subreddit, citing violent content, and deleted a thread Musk highlighted.
Reddit denies external influence but acknowledges evaluating reports seriously.
The controversy stirred discussions among Reddit moderators, some mocking Musk as a “giant baby.” Musk has not commented on the situation.
Yep got a temp 3 day ban on reddit just saying that let’s hope the masked police don’t mess up with someone who has conceal carry license… that is all I said, then boom temp ban.
Reddit is compromised.
Yeah, Reddit has been leaned on. And is compliant.

they are complicit, and probably are colloborators too.
during the purge on feb 13 is when all my accounts got hit. 1 temp ban for reporting too much, and then suddenly all 5+ accs i barely used were banned.
