I have him tagged as "/r/conspiracy regular". I'm not surprised.

Totally all this guy's fault, nothing to do with the people who decided that electric cars aren't technology.

It has everything to do with Maxwellhill and anutensil. They were against the rule that mods should have 3 posts a week only on /r/politics. They only post to subs that they mod For the most part.

The problems with r/technology totally have anything to do with whatever it is you're talking about

and nothing to do with the people who decided electric cars aren't technology

The mod team of /r/technology is dysfunctional and that has everything to do with the removal

Trying to prevent a sub getting spammed to death by the Cult of Tesla != electric cars aren't technology.

Telling people "post car stories to car subreddits" absolutely == electric cars aren't technology

Apologies on behalf of the cult of wanting to talk about major developments in technology on the technology subreddit

The problem is when the sub is turned into /r/tesla instead of /r/technology.

It's hilarious how SRDers are so in favor of mods doing what they want with their subreddits and the rules of those subreddits

Right until the moment the mods do something that goes against what the SRDjerk says they ought to do

I don't see that on the schedule. Did I miss a memo? Or is it under "wild"?

Maxwell adds content. Idiot mods remove content. I'm glad he's high on the list, because I like communities where the voters decide what they want to see, not a filter bot.

And it's a lot better than Reddit, but I prefer the reddit of yesteryear where mods were generally less active. Hopefully this is a step in the right direction for /r/technology.
