so this is like… over a decade ago… but she was a poweruser on reddit who mostly posted cute cats and shit, just generally interacting a lot and modding a bunch of default subs. She was a very early mod of /r/TwoXChromosomes and shit and was like one of those few people who would deal with the bullshit from being obviously a woman on reddit at the time. anyways, somehow people figured out that her day job was “social media liason” or something for like, something related to pets or something??? idk. (It was around this point in this comment that I have become 30 reddit tabs deep with 10 year old drama threads. don’t be like me kids) anyways people got absurdly mad about it because they all KNEW that this meant she was using her mod positions for nefarious content promotion reasons (despite there being no reason to think she was doing more than posting things her job wanted her to post as well as all the other pet related content she was always posting anyways) so people got mad as hell and then there were repeated drama outbursts over things like removing negative comments about her on subs she modded etc. but yeah, she was constantly getting rape/murder threats and was constantly the target of misogynistic hate speech. But the whole thing was despite saying she had political posting about feminism stuff I always seemed to find her making excuses for misogynist dudes on there. Like, she was being about as milquetoast as she could possibly be about feminism and they still came for her with pitchforks. Like, she literally went and hung out with violentacrez and was on podcasts with him and shit while he was operating a child porn subreddit.

Oh also she invented the “Bacon Narwhal’s at Midnight” thing for which I shall never forgive her, but good reasons to hate her like that never seemed to surface on her AMA threads where everything she posted was downvoted
