The point is that Alexis purposefully let someone else take the blame for a decision he made.

Off-topic, but isn't Alexis the guy behind firing Victoria and setting Ellen Pao up for taking the wrap?

He could get himself, Sam Altman, Alexis Ohanian, and Steve Huffman all sued for fucking over Conde Nast (i.e.

Uh, unless you consider Yishan Wong (former reddit CEO) publicly stating it[1], and Alexis himself admitting it[2] 'speculation', then I think the evidence is solid enough.

What about moving to a board position, like Bill Gates or Alexis Ohanian?

The only person claiming Alexis was responsible for firing Victoria was Yishan who hasn't worked there for 8 months and he based that on the fact that Alexis is Ellen's boss so he's ultimately responsible.

Former employee kickme44 pointed out that Alexis actually reported to Ellen, despite his role, and Yishan then back peddles on his claims somewhat.

The good news is, Steve and Alexis both know this.

I hadn't seen Alexis write that and couldn't find it despite spending way more time than I should be reading about reddit drama.

Sam and Alexis are trying to spin Steve coming back as the second coming, but it's pretty clear that Reddit's honeymoon period with their userbase is over.

It may have been a unilateral decision by Alexis but I honestly doubt it, these things still have to be okayed by the CEO.

I heard Alexis say in a talk once that 'if you treat people like adults, guess what, they treat you like an adult too'.

You're contradicting yourself, you say that "Not once did he come forward and say it was him" and then you say Alexis publicly admitted it himself.

That's why the contrast between the quotes is so notable: "Neither Alexis nor I created reddit to be a bastion of free speech, but rather as a place where open and honest discussion can happen" I guess I just disagree on what we're basically seeing.

The main quote from the announcement: " Neither Alexis nor I created reddit to be a bastion of free speech, but rather as a place where open and honest discussion can happen: These are very complicated issues, and we are putting a lot of thought into it.

We haven’t had the tools to enforce policy, but now we’re building those tools and reevaluating our policy." Quickly refuted by one of the redditors [1] with a quote from Alexis Ohanian himself, answering on Forbes [2] what would the Founding Fathers think of Reddit, echoing verbatim what is being now denied: “ A bastion of free speech on the World Wide Web?

Alexis Van Hurkman wrote an amazing book called Color Correction which is about digital color grading for motion pictures and TV.

Of course, once Ellen stepped down and Yishan already exposed Alexis, he admitted it.

Even more interesting that the firing of Victoria was Alexis's decision and not Ellen's but Ellen totally got the blame for it as far as the Reddit community was concerned.
