It's win/win. Either SRS wins and Netflix pulls advertising which hurts reddit, or reddit's admins ban SRS which hurts SRS. It's a shame both can't lose.

The best result is scorched earth. SRS keeps openly attacking Reddit's revenue streams, Reddit keeps being afraid to kill the cancer with fire.

The whole situation is incomprehensible to me though. A bunch of power mods are blatantly biting the hand that feeds, and Reddit does nothing.

I want to believe that Spez's comments about a technological solution to SRS actually refers to getting a system in place that will strip supermods down to a bare handful of subs, with opened slots being defaulted to an Admin account until replacements can be found. Match that with a concurrent eviction of SRS and related subs as being harmful to the community, and you'd be looking at a decent attempt to cauterize the SRS tumor in one hit.

Not going to hold my breath.

Or they reach a compromise and Reddit pulls down TRP and other subs because the majority of admins are SRS anyway.

I don't read /r/theredpill either. And anyway the more stuff Reddit bans and sanitizes the more people will leave and the TRPers can go to /v/theredpill . Ie Reddit will go the way of Digg as even people who don't like the more controversial subs nevertheless get irritated by the attempt at sanitizing the site and endless rebellions on /r/all even more.
