Those rules are so ambiguous that they can be interpreted as anything. I've seen more than a few people say "Well Chinese people are the majority of the world's population so I guess racism is okay against them according to reddit?" Hilarious.

I love when companies try so hard to be "woke" that they collapse on themselves trying to figure out what's going to score them the most brownie points with the blue checkmarks on twitter. I knew it was only a matter of time before this happened when a reddit co-founder stepped down because he explicitly said he wanted a black candidate to take his place. This isn't even pandering anymore, it's just plain insulting and disingenuous. I want to know who the hell greenlit this rule and I'm 99% sure it was a disgruntled intern that wrote this and it somehow got under spez's radar, I refuse to believe a board member approved of this rule.
