      It means the mods at r/pics just dropped a “Please Cover This” sign to the biggest news show in reddit’s prime demographic.

      It’s honestly kind of fucking genius. Much respect.

        It’s not just about getting covered, although it definitely helps. Reddit is threatening to remove mods who leave subs private as they see it as abandonment. This way the sub is still basically closed but is technically still being moderated.

        They won’t be able to cover it until after the writer’s strike though.

        If they do end up covering it, I hope they mention spez’s doomsday-prepper fascism.

        When society crumbles, I’ll totally be in charge because I’m such a natural leader. I won’t be a slave, but some people definitely will be. But not me, because I have motorcycles and guns. I’ll be in charge when slavery comes back. This is a normal thing to say.

        NPR covered it on their prime time radio show. It’s definitely being covered.
