You know protests don’t work, because the people in power are telling you protests don’t work.

I must admit I was a bit skeptical about whether the protest will work, especially since from the beginning there was a 48h deadline on it, which set us up for failure.

But the way the community has rallied around this cause makes me so proud.

Reddit the corporate entity is failing us, but they’re learning that they only have power because the community chose them. Wish them good luck with their upcoming IPO with reddit currently being a dumpster fire.

If it wasn’t working, we wouldn’t see subs forced open, subs forced back to SFW, mod teams summarily demodded and suspended, “fuck spez” comments being disallowed - and there’s surely more to come.

Oh, it’s working.
