The head of reddit's censorship team is literally a CIA alumni. An extremely active leftist sub that wasn't self-defeatingly sectarian or a captured radlib tendency like the v**shites, and that terminally online enough to be shaping discourse in general wasn't something they could tolerate it.

You have a source on the CIA censorship thing? I'd like to know more.

I think they might be referring to this lady. She wasn't CIA but she was pretty close.
