Disappointed that NPR didn't elaborate more on how Huffman truly fucked over Christian Selig.

Been reading Noam Chomsky, and the theme of democratic movements being quelled, one might say mysteriously, is a common global theme. Reddit was that social democracy for a time.

No, it wasn't.

It is, and has always been, a feudal monarchy, if you want to define it's political structure.

You and I are the peasants, above us are the moderators acting on behalf of the local Lord Subreddit Owner, which serve at the whim of The Monarchs of the corporation, with His Majesty the CEO only being rained in sliiiiightly by the clerics of the venture capital Church.

Please elaborate on how you see this in any way as a social democracy.
