This is truly atrocious behavior.

The above is the Twitter link with the person who is complaining about it.

I know that /r/communism has been run by Maoist mods for a long time, and I know that u/smokeuptheweed has absolute bonkers takes.

I wish we had an alternative to /r/communism on Reddit, but I guess we have to grow that here.

    This may not even be Maoist moderators. A comment like that is little too obviously horrible. What I think happened is that fascists have appropriated a political sub-Reddit in order to smear that political movement. Something similar happened to the “/r/Feminism” sub-Reddit. I suspect Reddit’s CEO Jack Dorsey, who is a racist and fascist, deliberately hands control of any sub-Reddit he hates over to provocateur moderators.

    Or maybe this just always ends up happening to leftist sub-Reddits for some other reason.
