View submission: [Developing] Former /r/conspiracy mod /u/Flytape is added as a mod to /r/xkcd. Need I say more?

I'm out of the loop here. What is /r/xkcd?

A subreddit for the webcomic xkcd; for long time it's been moderated by /u/Soccer, a (among other unsavory things) Holocaust denier and Red Piller. He had links to MRA, TRP, etc. in the sidebar for a while, until a recently appointed mod (/u/wyboth) removed them. Wyboth was removed, the links put back, and that's when the drama started.
