"
Answer: Reddit has just hired someone who has modded a bunch of subs called Aimee Challenor. Her father kidnapped, tortured, and raped a 10 year old girl and has been convicted of it. She lived at home during some of this, yet claims to "not have full knowledge" of what occurred. After her Pedo father was arrested and bailed she made him her campaign manager. She has been fired from two political parties in the UK; the green party and the liberal democrats. Her husband has also tweeted about how he wants to rape kids, she claims his account was hacked."

Par for the course for reddit. All of their staff and power mods are fake wokie wackos.

Like their one power mod who was exposed for grooming young teens, and offering to fly them in for private hormone injections

So shes a perfect fit for reddit

So if this is true then report it to reddit moderators. Tell them the reddit is private and has such content being shared in it. An administrator would be able to go to the private reddit and read any of the posts

The private subreddit thing is moderators of those subs setting them to private in protest of Reddit employing her.

This is part of the reason why Reddit is such a piece of shit. Not just because they hired someone connected to a pedophile rapist, but also because subreddit moderators have such ridiculous power. Yes I hope they fire the bitch, but they should also fire/ban all those moderators too.

They won't. They will be called transphobic if they do

Friendly reminder: the ratfuckerclub subreddit is over a year old and still running

Nah, you don't get it. This woman was hired by reddit to be an admin. From what I know, this story started when someone posted an article in the UK which referenced her. That person was banned and any subsequent mentions of her are banned now too. The mods are making subreddits private in protest.

Oh. He privated those subs. This is why wording is important, it made sound like he was a moderator of said subs. Man TV you use Reddit and dont know anything about it

Reddit is such a fucking joke of a website.

Is this the next Jessica Yaniv?

Incidentally, Aimee Challenor has had a KF thread since 2018. Apparently they're an ABDL and furcub fetishist too.

Wallstreetbets going crazy again?

ABDL - Adult Baby Diaper Love. People who get off on wearing and spiling diapers, while they pretend to be babies.

Furcub - furries who get off on pretending to be children-furries.

KF - Kiwifarms. A site with forums dedicated to following, documenting, and mocking lolcows/weirdos on the internet.

Yeah, I only found out about this because Squared Circle stood up against this bull shit and went Private in protest as well. Aimee Challenor is the one in question, right? How do you protect and bound with pedophiles? What a garbage human

Like, I GET wanting to stand by family and wanting to believe that the people who raised you are good people. But child rape is just way too far of a leap in that logic. Especially when she hired him to help in her campaign under a pseudonym. Like, she KNOWS he's guilty if she's doing that.

Get rekt, Reddit.

i don't know what's worse. Reddit ownership not doing any sort of background check, or doing one and saying "this is fine". how are we at this point? and worse, how does reddit keep getting into these PR nightmares over and over again?

today on reddit; streisand effect in full

They're claiming the ignorance option lol

We would like to give you all an update on the recent issues that have transpired concerning a specific Reddit employee, as well as provide you with context into actions that we took to prevent doxxing and harassment.

As of today, the employee in question is no longer employed by Reddit. We built a relationship with her first as a mod and then through her contractor work on RPAN. We did not adequately vet her background before formally hiring her.

Weve put significant effort into improving how we handle doxxing and harassment, and this employee was the subject of both. In this case, we over-indexed on protection, which had serious consequences in terms of enforcement actions.

On March 9th, we added extra protections for this employee, including actioning content that mentioned the employees name or shared personal information on third-party sites, which we reserve for serious cases of harassment and doxxing.
On March 22nd, a news article about this employee was posted by a mod of r/ukpolitics. The article was removed and the submitter banned by the aforementioned rules. When contacted by the moderators of r/ukpolitics, we reviewed the actions, and reversed the ban on the moderator, and we informed the r/ukpolitics moderation team that we had restored the mod.
We updated our rules to flag potential harassment for human review.

Debate and criticism have always been and always will be central to conversation on Redditincluding discussion about public figures and Reddit itselfas long as they are not used as vehicles for harassment. Mentioning a public figures name should not get you banned.

We care deeply for Reddit and appreciate that you do too. We understand the anger and confusion about these issues and their bigger implications. The employee is no longer with Reddit, and well be evolving a number of relevant internal policies.

We did not operate to our own standards here. We will do our best to do better for you.

It could just be standard procedure for all Reddit employees, and would make sense if it were.
---

Cancel Reddit. I'm dead serious.

---

I get "not doing adequate background checks" but this woman was literally in the news for this stuff when it happened. She has her own Wikipedia page detailing what happened. There's not doing a deep enough background check, and then there's not recognising that this person was the same public figure involved in a fairly high-profile scandal that - again - was even reported in the actual news. Even the slightest Google would bring this up.

Either they didn't perform any sort of check at all - which seems unlikely for a tech-savvy company like this - or they did but they thought that nobody would notice - again, unlikely for a company that knows how the Internet works.

It just seems a bit fucky to me.

---

Can't really put Reddit to a higher standard when it comes to this. No matter the company, they always end up hiring dumb fucks some way some how.

i dont. you shouldnt hire people that pose a reasonable risk, which pedophiles/a lot of criminals are. they should only be hired for isolated jobs where they dont interact with others and have a minimal opportunity to harm others.

Does gamefaqs do background checks on da gamefaqs mods
---

According to Wikipedia reddit fired her.
