Klein has attempted to subpoena Discord and Reddit for information that would reveal the identity of moderators of a subreddit critical of him. The moderators' lawyers fear their clients will be physically attacked if the subpoenas go through.

          Ethan Klein is a very stupid Youtuber who got popular for his video “vape nation”. I used to watch him. Then he turned into a big ol fuckwad.

            I mean…I’ve never heard of him, but if you say he hosts a show called “Vape Nation” I already assume he’s a douche.

              It was just one sarcastic video posted like 10 years ago or so. (In the same vein as a Mega64 sketch).

            Sounds like he was a fuckwad from the start. The first clue should have been that he had an online video titled “vape nation.”

              Well, I’m kind of in the same boat as the commenter you’re replying to. It was a video made to be goofy and make fun of vapers.

              But yeah, he turned into a fuckwad

    Reminds me of when the Klan we’re on Jerry Springer and someone tried to unmask them and that seemed to be the absolute worst thing in the world to them. Letting people see them for who they really are.

    Not hateful people — not just Klan, or Reddit mods for that matter — operate more openly. It seems the one hateful group still terrified of exposure is child predators. Release the damn Epstein files! No, I don’t think Reddit mods are on it. They do defend child predators on Reddit, but Epstein only rubbed elbows with the rich and powerful, not the pseudo powerful.

      Fart Huffman is gonna argue that he’s definitely on the list with that as the reasoning. He isn’t though, not because he’s probably not a pedo but because he’s a worthless little nothing those people wouldn’t have been interested in.
