    It was fun while it lasted.

    I hope that this makes the ignorant realize that this shitstorm is but a preview. Things will get worse and worse as the frog that are the ignorant gets boiled as the Reddit shareholders push to squeeze each and every drop of money that can be squeezed out of the users and their user data.

        I don’t think the Chinese government Tencent is looking to profit from Reddit monetarily.

        What I think is happening, and I may be completely off the mark here, is that Tencent’s share is for propping up a means for which China can propagate and legitimize their propaganda. /r/Sino and /r/GenZedong are in Reddit afterall.

        In a weird twist, I think if Tencent had more control, we might see a more user-friendly Reddit, while at the same time, shadowbanning any voice that’s critical of China.
