Lex Fridman’s subreddit is notoriously trigger-happy with bans and post removals. Lex is a mod, but it’s not clear who is doing the heavy-handed moderation. It’s well-known on Reddit that you don’t post anything less than glowing agreement with Lex on his subreddit, unless you want your post removed and to risk getting banned. I know his podcast personality is popular, but this is not the guy you want calling the shots on social media governance.
OTOH, Elon picking Lex as the fall guy to take the blame wouldn’t entirely surprise me.
- bavila 4y agoHeh, I was permanently banned from /r/lexfridman in a thread about his Duncan Trussell interview. My comment was basically: "Oh, great, another 'podcaster interviews another podcaster for reciprocal exposure' episode?" Snarky, sure, but still unfortunate he can't handle some rib jabbing about interviewing a clown like Trussell compared to the more intellectual guests he (used to) interview. :)
