Did he just try to make it sound like Reddit employees are victims of hate crimes?? LMAO

I have to imagine he thinks people hate Reddit for some irrational unfathomable reasons, rather than just him and the other executives for their actual behavior.

It 100% is. As a customer service manager for a software company, I can say - you wouldn’t believe some of the threats we get, just while operating normally, and people are pissed about this.

I wouldn’t do anything to them, but I’d definitely deny them service if I found a reddit employee in the wild.
