So basically Reddit hired this woman without a background check even though she is a public figure with a well known past. Then when it got pointed out in the UKPolitics subreddit a mod got banned and for 48 hours many other subreddits basically protested by pinning messages against this person. Eventually reddit folded and fire them, and admitted to hiring them without a background check even though the allegations with her name attach to them were a Google search away.
Here is one of the accusations :
"The activist eventually joined the UK’s Liberal Democrats, but got suspended in 2019 – this time in relation to tweets posted on her fiance Nathaniel Knight’s account. According to the Sunday Times, one tweet read: “I fantasise about children having sex, sometimes with adults, sometimes with other children, sometimes kidnapped and forced into bad situations.” "
