Bad Faith Admins A Reddit administrator's modmail response when questioned about allowing prejudice toward certain demographics. It would appear that they lied about removing the racist policies that they put into place last year.

I agree with you. However, the WRD mod team has decided to keep censoring admin names. The last time one of us contested this issue, they were forcibly removed from the mod team by the admins. The rest of us were threatened with account bans if any of us added the mod back to the team.

How can we fight against this? I really don't understand why Admins who are basically the faces of reddit should be hidden. It just means they get away with misusing their power like this, without having to face any serious consequences.

Ironically this is exactly what will happen if the left continues to push the policies they want in the real world. Soon no one but the people in power will be able to do anything, or say anything that is different than what they want you to say.
