/u/Ambiguously_Ironic: "I was removed as a /r/conspiracy mod today without warning after a decade ... i was “not active enough” as the top mod informed me, and I was removed today without any prior message or warning that it was a possibility or a definition of what level of activity is expected..."

Sounds like he wasn't very active. On a busy sub that shit would piss me off too, people who want to be mod for clout but not do any of the work.

Yeah, maybe it's nothing suspicious, but I was anticipating it would be removed and wanted to preserve copy here. Also he tells some interesting /r/conspiracy mod lore in comments.

What's the mod lore?

Not much actually, just some small tidbits here and there:

I think I was second or third in the list, but UN_13 was above me so if he says I’m gone then I’m gone.

[I like Amos.. is he still around?] Account was suspended by reddit a while back.

I don’t have any details on that unfortunately. I agree Amos was an awesome mod and always seemed like a good guy, I wish I had more information I could give you. I was hoping he would reach out to me from a new account or something but as of now he hasn’t.

Sooner or later it will become obvious to everyone that reddit is just a controlled 'astroturf' platform, there to manage narratives, and is therefore becoming less and less relevant to how real people actually think ... as was made clear by recent US elections.

The vastness of the internet may change over time, but forum politics will never change 🙄

I was banned from reddit fully (and was mainly the conspiracy sub) after being there 11 years. They had been working to over take control of the conspiracy sub for over a decade. Every election cycle the coordinated attempts were made. After the mod purdge they were successful. Although never a mod, I had been high on their hit list for a long time. They hate that truth would get through their censorship and quarantine practice.
