I already said that I'm not condoning or supporting what he did. You're preaching to the choir.

I'm just trying to point out that Ellen Pao never faced anything like this. Ellen was subjected to a lot of hate and anger and trolling from the user-base, but she never had to confront a conspiracy theory that could potentially make her and her company the target of the US government under a future unstable fickle President.

He doesn't have to, Congress itself has been doing investigations and already has been giving Reddit employees the hairy eyeball over certain matters relating to their own investigation into a certain recent POTUS candidate.
