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

Everything is normal.

Wow an authority figure from /r/Conspiracy is using that line. We are through the looking glass here people.

And he's even using SRS as a boogeyman/scapegoat. I mean, isn't that like basic conspiracy theorist 101 there? Authority figures using scapegoats to distract the sheeple from the real problems?

This drama is pretty amazing.

I'd argue not so much. The conspiracies in /r/Conspiracy are usually grand and far reaching. This, on the other hand, is about as meaningless and petty as it gets.
