So this is something that's been going on all day today. I didn't actually notice till a couple minutes ago. I just went and checked Reddit and some of the subreddits I usually go on are down and apparently there's a revolt going on on Reddit right now. So from the looks of it, from what I've read, someone by Victoria was fired from Reddit. I don't quite know what her position on Reddit was. I think she was just a moderator or something. I'm not quite sure, but she was fired and now all these Reddit moderators are revolting because I guess they all really liked her or something. It did not say why she was fired. That has not been released publicly. But so basically this girl was fired from her job at Reddit and all these people are revolting, privating some of the biggest threads out there. And Reddit, this really popular website, the front page of the internet, is falling into— crumbling into pieces right now. This is actually pretty cool. I'm not quite sure though what's going on. I'll put the article in the description, or not article, just a link to if you want to read about what's going on. It looks pretty interesting. Honestly, I'm a little curious, like, if a revolt like this actually does bring her back, then, I mean, I don't know, just anytime people disagree with stuff, they'll just go through and the moderators will start, you know, privating stuff and just rioting or whatever they do on Reddit. So I'm curious to see how Reddit responds to this. It's pretty interesting. I don't quite understand the full story, so like I said, I'll put a link at the top of the description. Just click on that and read about it if you want to. But apparently Reddit's falling apart right now, and it's kind of cool to watch because I see just— there's a lot of funny responses in the comments to it, and it's pretty hilarious. So I'm just making this video in case you didn't know. Just go check it out.
