They mentioned them specifically in the original announcement. I swear if the admins are direct, people complain, if they're not completely direct, people complain.

Granted, it's different groups complaining. They'll never please everyone.

Nice try to sidestep the problem. Direct about *what*? indirect about *what*? The what is what we don't like, not the way they choose to tell us.

People are complaining because of the targeted censorship.......not because of them being honest about it.

They are never direct about their real motives even though usually it is completely transparent to people with half a brain.

Maybe that should tell you that people's problem isn't whether admins are direct or not. The problem is the action itself.

They didn't mention /r/politics.

Maybe if the admins didn't suck, people wouldn't complain.

It's like you can't lump everyone together like that.

Direct or indirect, when your actions are about trying to eliminate 350,000 subscribed users from the platform you're gonna catch some flak.

That's not in the least bit curious to you? Do people really think there is a gigantic subreddit full of fascists and racists so vile that they must be nannied away from the rest of the flock? Ok. This is the world we live in.

People complain because the admins are BIASED. Not because they are direct or indirect.
