    [Horizon is joining the battle] Could we get Team AVOlition to join it? It’s like a Moneycraft server, except funnier!

    The reason why Steve Huffman is shooting his own trotter is likely emotional. See, humans are funny creatures: we get emotionally invested on our own decisions, and even when we do something blatantly stupid, we keep insisting to not lose “progress” on what we made. Specially when the human in question is a narcissist eager to call users “landed gentry” and to lie to them as if they were stupid. Couple that with investors likely wanting his liver on a silver plate on one side, and the entitled raging, and… well. This all is going to cloud one’s (already poor) judgment, right.

    And even this ingrained culture of malicious compliance in Reddit was fuelled by him. Mod guidelines being a fucking mess, bringing up a zombie admin account to kick off mods? That’s maliciously abiding to the letter but not the spirit of the rules… and the users are only answering in tone.

    I’m loving everything about this. 🍿🍿
