    the articles from The Verge seem to be very favorable towards the protestors

    Because that’s what’s driving traffic for them right now. Let’s not forget that The Verge is also a soulless corporate entity. Peters has been doing a good job at covering the issues, but he wouldn’t be allowed to be as thorough if the topic and angle wasn’t a good driver of traffic.

      I’m tired of people calling reddit a soulless corporate entity. If that were remotely true, they’d charge just enough for 3PA to make it unpalatable but still get people to pay it. Not make it so expensive it kills them entirely. If they were a soulless entity, u/spez would be spouting just enough corporate speak to make people upset but not be offensive.

      No, u/spez has made reddit something special in a sea of soulless corporate entities. U/spez has made reddit actually evil.
