Everyone acts like Alexis Ohanian is an untrustworthy piece of shit because he was a reddit founder.

He is married to Serena Williams. Williams has been a focal point of hate from the right wing for decades (including internationally). Literally years of unnecessary hate and derision on her because she didn'f fit stereotypical beauty guidelines and is a badass tennis player (a very white dominated sport). She also literally has first hand experience of having her medical issues ignored by doctors during her pregnancy, which happens at a far greater rate for black women.

Williams may be rich, but she was never obscene rich, and she got where she was squarely off her real talents. She also was part of a Superbowl show which made a point to critique where America is at and where it is headed, particularly in respect to race relations. A superbowl show that made right wingers collectively melt down.

I'm saying people are acting like she, a black woman who has experienced direct adversity from the right-wing, has no impact on how Ohanian conducts himself or how he approaches life, and that we should expect the same-old, same-old techbro bullshit from him. I just don't think that's the case after they've been married so long.

All the progressives left and it's just libertarians now.

Yep. There's a reason I moved over even before the v4/2011 fiasco
