Make it easier to add Black moderators to a community. One mod suggested the potential of r/needablackmod instead of just r/needamod.

Is this a joke?

Nope. They literally had an admin staff step down so they could replace him with a new black admin. Purely for the sake of saying "we have diversity." They literally hired a token black guy.

LMAO “black people, we want you to take on the work of moderating subs for free.”

Like how fucking dumb is Reddit’s PR department? Or is it just Spez high on magic shrooms?

We need black trans lesbian men to run this site. Just trying to find black people is not enough diversity. /u/spez needs to step down and find the most minority person on planet earth to take over.

Nope.

This is the same company who has a board member step down so that they could "replace him with a POC".

This is the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard and I’m literally a black dude supporting defunding cops. What the fuck is this supposed to accomplish? Who thought this was a good idea?

Why would anyone want a black mod after all this? Sounds like a great way to have your sub censored like crazy.
