If you really want to show remorse, do the following things:

1: Unfire victoria or give a satisfying answer as to the cause of her firing. This is unacceptable, the only reason you wouldnt say is because its embarrasing for you or you dont want to get caught in a lie. Employee defemation laws are very clear, the truth is an absolute defense.

2: Retract your statement that reddit shouldnt be a place for free speech. This attitude does not reflect the reddit that was founded, you took something that someone else made and decided to fuck it up.

3: Resign. The people you purport to work for, the reddit userbase, has been very vocal that they want you out and they want you out now. 150k people have signed that petition, go ruin someone elses company.

Oh and dont think its not obvious that you're choosing to finally come to reddit now instead of 3 days ago, its crazy how much of a bullying jerk you are.

Remorse? Shut the fuck up.

Victoria's not coming back. How delusional do you have to be to think that that's a viable solution to anything? Why should Victoria want to go back knowing what the corporate overlords think of her? Why would they want to have everyone think they have no control over their business?

I miss the Victorian era too, but it's not coming back. It just isn't. Accept it already.

Luckily there was a second option there, which is what most people really want at this point anyway. Just state why she was fired

My sense of curiosity wants to know too, we're only human it's natural that we'd want to know, but the world doesn't work that way. They can't say, it's unprofessional and we'd all call them out for it if they did, not to mention whatever legal problems would arise.

The only possible problem they could get into legally would be public defamation laws (seriously, did you even read my post, or did you just knee jerk make two stupid comments?) and that would only be a problem if they lied. The truth is an absolute defense in cases like these.

No you're right, I just made stupid knee jerk responses about how companies don't usually divulge information about reasons for terminating employees. Call me names and insult my intelligence all you want, unfortunately this is the way it is though. Reddit cares what the corporate world thinks and the corporate world wouldn't be too into investing in a company that shares private information with the we want Pao's head crowd.

We'll only ever get that from their cold dead hands.

1: Unfire victoria or give a satisfying answer as to the cause of her firing.

I get that there are a lot of people here who have never worked in a corporate job. But just to be clear: THIS IS NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN.

They can't comment on her termination.

They can't re-hire her.

That dye is cast. If they say ONE DIRECT comment about her role and her termination, they are setting themselves up to get sued and they aren't going to do that.

Be upset. That's all fine. But stop demanding that this role get reinstated or explained to us all like someone was unfairly eliminated in a game of schoolyard dodge ball. It makes you all sound like petulant children.

Get off their nuts about this. Personnel decisions are private. It would be unacceptable if they gave a reason that she was fired. It's not your business why a person you don't even know was let go.

Legally there is no problem with commenting on why an employee was fired as long as you tell the truth

And what if Victoria doesn't want u/dragonfangxl to know? She has the ability to say why, and hasn't.

1: Unfire victoria or give a satisfying answer as to the cause of her firing.

There are only two reasons she would be fired. One is a restructuring which is pretty much what they indicated is at least somewhat at play and the other is a personal reason which they would never publicly announce.

2: Retract your statement that reddit shouldnt be a place for free speech.

What would this accomplish? They already said in their announcement of the banning of FPH what Reddit is, which is freedom of ideas but not freedom of behavior. You literally want her to post an announcement with the words "I retract my statement"? I'm sure that would blow over well.

3: Resign. The people you purport to work for, the reddit userbase, has been very vocal that they want you out and they want you out now. 150k people have signed that petition, go ruin someone elses company.

There are 3.5 million Reddit users logged in a month. Just because 4% signed a petition that is very easily gamed (meaning lots and lots of duplicates) doesn't mean the entire userbase cares like you think they do. There's a very silent majority that is sick of the whiners hijacking the site.

the reddit userbase

150k people

I hope you realize that the "reddit userbase" is far more than 150k people. 150k is a fraction of a fraction of the userbase, less than 1%.

[–]dragonfangxl 2ポイント3ポイント  (3子コメント)

Do you know how words work? Because there were some words between those two you quoted. I said the reddit userbase has been very vocal. Look no further than all of those subreddits that went dark or the zillion posts about it that have been cluttering the front page

[–]mynameisvlad -2ポイント-1ポイント  (2子コメント)

Because there were some words between those two you quoted.

Those words are pretty much irrelevant. You implied that the petition represents the whole userbase, which is incorrect. That was the part I'm arguing. Therefore, I omitted the crap in between. Quoting all or just what I did would have had the same effect.

all of those subreddits that went dark

A decision by a few dozen mods. Once again, nothing about the entire "reddit userbase".

zillion posts about it

I honestly don't think you understand the scale of reddit. Even the "zillions" of posts wouldn't be a big chunk of the userbase. What you're seeing is a very vocal minority, which therefore skews your interpretation of the general population's beliefs. The general population aren't the mods, or the content creators. For every content creator there is, there are dozens of lurkers who rarely post. Unless you went to each and every one of them, or to a big enough sample to be considered equal and unbiased, then you can't possibly speak for the whole userbase.

[–]dragonfangxl 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

No no your right. If only we had some kind of voting system, that way we could know what the reddit users actually wanted. Then we could have a front page, so the most popular voices in the reddit community could be easily seen. Why, if a bunch of similar posts about a hatred to a certain person were voted by the community to the front page, we could even use that to gage the opinions of the reddit community!

Oh well, too bad thats not a thing

I take it you've never heard of selection bias.
