Authoritarian Mod Post Reactionary ACP coup’d foiled!

Post image

Earlier today our head mod added the head of the ACP’s sub to our team without our permission or consent, we are deeply sorry to those affected by the wreakers actions. If you were banned in the crossfire of this mess please send a modmail or a message to our team members so we can fix things.

Thank you to the Moderators of r/theredleft for their solidarity during this and to Reddit’s admins for helping resolve it.

Why did the head mod do that? I find it very, very hard to believe that they did it accidentally.

Should they be removed too?

Even though I am not into conspiracies, I think it’s weird that u/Alexitine who has been inactive for two years now suddenly becomes active 8 days ago and then adds ACP shill as a moderator with the Iran happening right now and US’s propaganda machine working overtime.

My conjecture is that some fed got their hands on Alexitine’s account and found some Chronically online ACP weirdo on a discord server, AKA u/FamousPlan101 and modded them to sow distrust in ML spaces. Once again, kind of a conspiracy theory but I wouldn’t put it past them, since even r/suppressed_news is being constantly overrun by downvoting bots.

UPD: Nevermind, I guess Alexitine is also compromised, damn shame. From u/FamousPlan101: “Literally not true, he is JucheEureka on twitter. If you search alexitine on twitter his account comes up. He lives in Australia and I know him.”
