And the super mods won't do jack shit because they're afraid of creating a bad precedent, even though this precedent alone is shameful

The top mods can't really do anything - and the admins have created a precedent by interfering in subs before, banning and shuffling truly egregious subs like jailbait and at least one or two racist subs, but only when reddit's image and profitability were threatened by these things becoming news.

Really, historically speaking, the most feasible strategy is to get Gawker to point in disgust at this.
