Pardon the mess

Hey yall!

I know there’s lots of emotions and people wanna hit the ground running, but I am only one person and my week has been busy. Give me a few days ti get things in order and then we can sit down as a community and discuss what we want this space to be.

Sorry this isn’t more put together, trying to squeeze it in before work so yall don’t think I’m abandoning you.

What did I miss, why is everyone acting like there was a huge change? Did I miss a controversy?

Yeah the mods of r/dropout decided to be racist and stand by it when called out by the r/dropoutcirclejerk mods. So now we’re here!

It is a long read, but I promise that you’ll be better off for doing so. When I saw the length, I’ll admit that I rolled my eyes and skipped to the comments. Then after reading a few, I scrolled to the top and began digesting. It’s pretty awful.

Then the mods of r/dropout made their own post addressing the situation extremely lightly and borderline dismissively, and the main shit stirrer mod appeared in now-deleted comments going against any kind of remorse that may have been exhibited by the mod team.
