Agree on mod accounts. It's what they tried to do on TheDonald and to a lesser extent did to r/Conspiracy and r/PoliticalCompassMemes. It's a part of the playbook now. Better to keep the communities and subvert them than to delete them.

They really need to get a .win set up.

I think the powers that shouldn't be realized the .win sites were getting too much traffic. For this reason the theory of them going private, taking over, then going back online could very well go with their tactics for controlling thought and speech.

They would rather have the discussion in their court.

We're talking about a site that let literal child sex trafficking blackmailer Ghislaine Maxwell be a moderator of multiple front page subs for most of a decade. I'd believe just about anything about them at this point.

I don't know how much the docs that have dropped get into it, but look into u/maxwellhill. She was a moderator of worldnews, politics, and technology. She was also moderator of a couple marine biology/environmentalist subs and marine biology is one of Maxwell's passions ever since her dad died at sea. She also made multiple posts supporting pedophilia, calling to legalize child porn, and criticizing age of consent laws. And her account's last post was about a day before she got arrested.

Check out reddit user “maxwellhill”

Already a designated username on this site as well - wish I had grabbed it first

Well they do go private fairly frequently. The community would know, and besides it's the community that's responsible for the enthusiasm, not the mods.

I dunno dude, normies I know irl who don't give a fuck about conspiracies are getting engaged with this. This may be an actual happening for once, try to keep a more open mind.

Also, admins would first nuke the sub before wasting time on an elaborate scheme, it's just not worth the headache.

It was backed by some real heavies with big capital. Like Musk and questionably a few others. No names. But people made money off it from that community. Hard to invest from abroad unless you had a trading portfolio. Filled out American forms for exchange and taxes from a broker. Real shame.

The problem is what happens next. Censorship often does. If it becomes a threat. What happens next isn't pie in the sky.

You're absolutely right. They grew these communities on Reddit organically by passionate, excited folks in order to seize the moderator positions and control what was and wasn't going to be said on them.

The sub was back up within 4 hours. They have been set to private before. I'm assuming Wall Street Bet is ran by people with lawyers, and that Reddit was contacted over this matter and threatened with lawsuits.

On the surface, there may be billions of dollars at stake here, but in actuality there are trillions at play, and Wall Street Bets are players in this game.
