So remember the /r/xkcd members realizing that a mod was a racist and MRA and had /r/mensrights and /r/conspiracy linked in the sidebar despite no relevance to XKCD? Well he deleted everybody disagreeing with him and even added /r/theredpill

Waiting for the links to other subs he mods to show up. Would love to see such gems as /r/911truth, /r/AmericanJewishPower, and /r/AdolfHitler on the front page.

I'm really disappointed that in all the hubbub about /u/soccer 's MRA tendencies, nobody has given his delightfully rabid anti-semitism the credit it deserves. Seriously, look through the guy's posting history. He's fucking obsessed with Jews. With all the bitching he does about "zionists" it's a wonder that he can even fit in misogyny and racism at all.

I'm reaching all the way down to the bottom of this page for some delicious, tasty popcorn to accompany this drama.

We should add /r/xkcd to the subredditdrama sidebar as an homage.

Why do users think subs are a democracy, anyone can make a sub and rule it how they see fit. Dictatorship ftw.

I never understand why a mod being a racist, or a multiculturalist, or an MRA, or a feminist, or an egalitarian, or none of the above would affect a mod's standing as a mod.

That this specific mod of /r/xkcd is adding /r/theredpill to the sidebar after provokation is evident of the person's overstepping personal opinion into professional moderation, but simply because a mod personally subscribes to some ideologies, however unpopular they are, doesn't necessitate an automatic kicking-out of said mod.

Wow, he's sure doing a lot to make sure that MR is known about. Not sure if its in a good way, though. All publicity is good publicity?
