If he’d had any insight, he’d have realized Reddit’s structure wasn’t a good vehicle for monetization and gone the way of Wikipedia/Jimmy Wales. He’d be popular and respected now and probably able to extract a decent living from it.

But his insistence that a square peg be pounded into a round hole will end up with him being neither popular nor respected—and he’ll never sniff that moonshot IPO.

Traditionally true, but I think they see the writing on the wall. They are now just breaking as much stuff as they can in the time that they have, so they can try to blame Labour for the fallout. They can break more things with a few extra months.

This clown was elected state-wide to be superintendent of public education….so that he could run around Oklahoma holding meetings about banning books in public libraries. If you’d written a George Orwell rip-off with this plot-line 20 years ago, it would have been dismissed as hyperbolic and absurd.

I totally respect the stay-and-fight position. Godspeed.

I think at this point they know they’re done for, so they’re going to finish breaking everything they’ve been underfunding for years and then gear up to blame Labour for the fallout.
