I am not surprised though. Someone with money is now exerting influence because Reddit is the most popular place for the resistance to oligarchy. Oligarchy aim is to own all media and they believe that will be the end of resistance's ability to spread messages.

I hated forums. I was part of one which got take over by right wing mods since the owner was pro religion+nationalism. All the good people left and it is dead now. I love reddit because it is not personal, I don't know anyone unlike in a forum with 50 active users, you become a regular and before you know it, people make it their personal agenda to attack you because you are a libtard as they used to call me.
I have a Ukrainian friend since like 2015, he is US citizen now. since last year they force smile and socialise less, just trying to stay busy with their kids.
It's so painful that I don't even know how to talk to him about this anymore. I just let him drive the conversation for most part. Most of the time, in the back of my head, I feel the pain of his family/relatives who have been displaced/disabled/dead.
I can't imagine losing your homeland to a cruel dictator.
