Regardless, if this is true, Ellen Pao definitely becomes a very interesting person to me. Extremely intelligent if you ask me, to be able to think like this. It does seem like (if it is true) she might've been a step or 10 too far ahead of the rest of the pack. Oh well. Let reddit die a peaceful death. Good luck to Ellen Pao in her future endeavors.

Seriously Dads?



Haven't read bigger bullshit except directly on Jezebel.

Ellen was more or less inclined to continue upholding my free-speech policies. /r/fatpeoplehate was banned for inciting off-site harassment, not discussing fat-shaming. What all the white-power racist-sexist neckbeards don't understand is that with her at the head of the company, the company would be immune to accusations of promoting sexism and racism: she is literally Silicon Valley's #1 Feminist Hero, so any "SJWs" would have a hard time attacking the company for intentionally creating a bastion (heh) of sexist/racist content. She probably would have tolerated your existence so long as you didn't cause any problems - I know that her long-term strategies were to find ways to surface and publicize reddit's good parts - allowing the bad parts to exist but keeping them out of the spotlight. It would have been very principled - the CEO of reddit, who once sued her previous employer for sexual discrimination, upholds free speech and tolerates the ugly side of humanity because it is so important to maintaining a platform for open discourse. It would have been unassailable.
Well, now she's gone (you did it reddit!), and /u/spez has the moral authority as a co-founder to move ahead with the purge. We tried to let you govern yourselves and you failed, so now The Man is going to set some Rules. Admittedly, I can't say I'm terribly upset.

Haha if you fucking SJWs continue down this road you'll be fucked because you'll be out of jobs. There will always be a reddit like exchange platform. The question here is if you niggers want to keep your jobs. If you do, you will do what the community asks. If you go against your user base, it will be your demise. For us, it's completely irrelevant whether we hang around on reddit or voat or whatever the name is.

Wonder how many redditors are currently trying to sanitise their history of all the Ellen hate so they can pick their pitchfork back up.

First of all I have no doubt that the Reddit founders did not really believe in absolute free speech. Total free speech cannot exist, otherwise you would have Nazi pedo-porn threads also on a forum like here within a week. But it depends what the guidelines of the forum are and Reddit if it wants to grow should have an even broader scope than for example RVF, since it wants to appeal to everybody.

The very interesting thing he wrote back was "back when I was running things, if there was anything racist, sexist, or homophobic I'd ban it right away. I don't think there's a place for such things on reddit.

Now all those statements against sexist statements. The Red Pill would fit their definitions of sexism, homophobia or even racism since we allow statements here that there are genetic differences between races (that according to the mainstream is racism already - even if we just claim that there are genetic differences between Scots, Irish or Italians).

Of course we knew that the management team and board were a bunch of SJW-mainstream-shitlords.

But Dads - Ellen Pao is an intelligent and interesting person to you? Are you working for Reddit?

Charmain Pao did the following:

+ sued her former employer for not getting promoted (I wish I could also sue all my former employers for not making me VP, partner or CEO within a few years, but I am no woman and I don't live in fairyland)
+ married a gay man who has a track record of fraud and questionable law suits himself (very red flag)
+ slept with multiple executives at her company which likely impacted her career as well
+ made multiple SJW statements which of course SJWs like Yishan Wang construct as glorious and wonderful as she is the CHAMPION AGAINST SEXISM IN STEM!!!
+ her former employer claimed that she was incompetent and her behavior - even her posting behavior on Reddit showed that she did not have much of a technical knowledge at all

All those things combined make it appear to me as if the SJW board wanted to purge Reddit of everything that upsets the mainstream. Soon The RedPill will go as well or be completely taken over by the Blue Pill Borg there.

Chairman Pao to the rescue!



Whether she is highly intelligent or not is irrelevant - it does not even matter if the board wanted a greater purge than she did. No one should praise cultural commissars here.
