View submission: The history of the /r/xkcd kerfuffle.
Didn't you just spend your post guilting /u/soccer for being an unfit mod of /r/xkcd based on his completely orthogonal interest in holocaust denialism?
No, I spent my post guilting /u/soccer and friends for censoring links to /r/xkcdcomic and removing comments which point this out, and for linking to irrelevant subs for a long time. The general consensus of /r/xkcd users while I was there was that they were fine with /u/soccer as head mod as long as he didn't use the subreddit to promote his personal views, and as long as I remained a mod. I was booted and the links went back up, so that's why everyone got mad.

Yes, you did also do that and the links to those other subs is bizarre at best but also highly inappropriate.

So let me get this straight:
You're upset because /r/xkcd and the mods are acting in a way that is against reddiquette...
But you're also part of the SRS subreddits which also act in a way that's against reddiquette?
This is why I stay away from SRD and the like. Both you and soccer are the same to me: hypocrites. reddit was fine with reddiquette. We never needed SRS. On Digg, the Digg Party Patriot right-wingers tried to screw with it. They weren't wrong because they were conspiratards, they were wrong because they were anti-digg.
Just because you believe your SJW opinions are right, doesn't make it right. You still are participating in a mechanism well outside of what reddit is supposed to be. The gall of complaining reddit doesn't work right and then being an SRSer?
Doesn't that seem hypocritical to you?
