My notes:
He expects some Reddit users to actually resort to physical violence, painting them as the irrational bad guys in this whole situation?
Spez has played the victim the entire time, why change tack now?
People are upset, is it me that's out of touch? No, it's the redditors who are wrong.
Tbf, those irrational people do definitely exist. Not that they represent the majority or anything, but even one isolated attack would be a big problem (obviously), so I agree it's best to be on the safe side there.
Oh wow, reading it summarized in your three points instantly reminded me of the behaviour of an emotional abuser. The last one specially hits hard, classic bully telling it's actually the bullied one.
Snoo is so cringe
What is a snoo?
Snoo is the reddit mascot (lil alien with an antenna), and I guess reddit corporate refers to its employees as Snoos, which is so cringeworthy.
If my company referred to us as anything but βteam membersβ Iβd die on the spot.
I can't even imagine a company calling me a "Snoo". Imagine explaining that to your family or friends.
It's the name of the reddit alien logo. It's also the name they call the employees apparently.
The last one is wild
On top of the presumption that any of them would even want to wear Reddit SWAG right now
Everyone loves corporate merch!
I shit you not, small corpo I work at actually set up an internal e-shop where employees can buy merch. And somehow no employees were reported dying of laughter and there were even a few positive emoji reactions on slack.
Ridiculous. As an employee, if you want me to wear the company's logo, you better give me that shit for free. Then I might wear it.
Buy corpo merch?!?!
If it was NASA or Porche, I get it
Those emoji reactions came from the boot lickers trying to ingratiate themselves for a promotion by demonstrating how much they love the brand and the vision and the culture of the company.
I did sales for awhile, this is probably correct. You would be in multiple whatsapp groups and it was very important you reacted to things with happy emojis if you wanted to get anywhere.
Those are typically also the least helpful people that will want your help for anything, but will throw anyone under the bus to look better.
He is delusional or triying to scare the poor Snoos. If anyone is angry about this and looking for a face to punch they have a clear target and is not some dude with a reddit t-shirt.
They are looking for a suit, no tie, popped up collar wearing, venture capital dudebro looking, jailbait ex-moderating, failure of a CEO.
Remember he has a doomsday bunker, he's totally loving the roleplay of someone upon whom the masses will turn.
Yup. He made the mods and users the bad guys and he is just trying to be the good guy. He's a dick, probably a narcissist, too. He's the victim, blah blah blah.
Those little Snoos. That company is like a family. A bunch of rockstars. How could those evil mods and users do this to them?!
He has to create a good guy/bad guy or us/them situation to rally the troops. Following Trump101.
You spelled βFascism101β wrong my friendβ¦
