I'm surprised how quickly they started doing this. Couldn't weather the protest for even two days.
I'm not surprised by the speed since the protests were so public. But in the case of the Tumblr sub it sounds like a "power mod" revealed themselves as an actual admin, and that does surprise me if it's true.
We always knew admins used alts, and suspected that's who some/most power mods were, but this would be the first time I've seen them take the mask off so blatantly.
