This reminded me of some management training I went through for a fast food company years ago. They tell managers to always back up the decisions of team members (unless illegal) regardless of if they were in the right or not. then, if possible without undermining the employee, appease the customer, then educate the team member in a 1 on 1.

All the decent mods left Reddit during the blackout and Reddit is treating the new batch with fast-food “we are a family” retention tactics. It makes people feel indebted despite being under-paid, over-worked, and generally exploited. Indebted people are less likely to start future blackouts or do anything against the wishes of the corporation they owe. Just one more reason to trust Reddit even less

Many people find content they enjoy to become more enjoyable when they can empathize with other people who also enjoy it. I don’t but somebody is up voting those comments so I assume. Not like it hurts me so meh
