We ACCEPT (for now) reposts of good malicious compliance stories (from other platforms) which did not happen to you or someone you knew. Please use a [REPOST] tag in such situations.

Yes, but Reddit has been using the term to mean whatever they want to remove moderators from protesting subs.

It's pretty clear that the dont believe anything they say. The breaking point for me was when spez started talking about voting on moderators, a change that is absolutely impossible to practically achieve if you think about it for even a minute. They are just saying and doing whatever they want because they plan on selling the scorched earth anyway.
