As a moderator of a large subreddit (who also doesn't particularly care about Reddit), I'm shocked by how much distain spez (the CEO) has for the users of Reddit. Hey, I get it... running a social media company is really, really hard and monetizing it is even harder.
But I just genuinely can't understand how he thinks it makes sense to publicly disparage pretty much everyone who uses his site. There's no way he can make Reddit better if he's decided every single person who contributes content or curation to it is the enemy.
I guess he looked at Elon, and thought "man, I hate the people on my site as much as he does, and he's getting away with it." The difference is (and I'm no Elon fan), Elon has enough fans to power through. Nobody even knows who spez is.
