We had different views in the potential growth rate in users for Reddit this year,” she said in an interview. “We couldn’t come to an agreement on that and I decided to step down.”
Pao ignited debate in Silicon Valley with her failed gender discrimination lawsuit against her former employer, the venture capital firm Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers.

Is this for banning fat shaming and people freaking out?
I don't Reddit, but a guy I work with was trying to tell me about everyone losing their shite over new censorship rules.

If this lady is as bad as reddit made her sound, she needs to be put down.
I bet reddit is going berserk right now.

I mean, they were cool with naked pics of celebs, but not cool with shaming fat people.

Good, frick her. Her reign over Reddit was absolutely disastrous.

That and she fired a beloved moderator, who would conduct the IAMA sessions. Reddit lost their shite after that.

I don't even see a mention of it on the frontpage.

It's called "reddit" now? I always thought the name of the place was "UglyDudesWithCutePets.com"

She was just the scapegoat to implement all the shitty policies they made to leave the new CEO with a clean slate. It's a classic "blame it on Bush" tactic

I think it had a lot to do with it. Basically people were pissed that she was going away from what reddit's goal of being the free speech place on the internet to cater to advertisers. That and firing the moderator who set up all the AMAs, one of the best things about reddit.

This is one of the great case studies on how easy it is wrangle some groupthink around a central idea (that peo sucks)once the momentum rolls that way. She never stood a chance after /r/fatpeoplehate. People were already questioning her past so they just wanted one reason.

Isnt she married to a gay black dude?
Posted on 7/10/15 at 4:46 pm to Rickety Cricket
I only look at the front page but the people over there were losing their mind over her. Completely ridiculous overreaction ala taking down the Lee statue in Lee Circle NOLA.
She sounds like a bitch but those people need to get a grip.

she was already screwed once the largely male demographic found out about her history. From that point forward everything was under a microscope.

Good! She's a raging lunatic.
