"petition calling on "Chairman Pao" to step down as Reddit's CEO has collected nearly 10k signatures:"

You really have no argument. Why should she step down? Because she let an employee go?

Why did the employee get let go? Until you can answer this, you only have one side of the story.

It's also really childish to use pejoratives like "Chairman Pao". It might be funny to your pot-smoking friends, but you instantly lose credibility with the rest of the world.



> It's also really childish to use pejoratives like "Chairman Pao".

So you don't like name-calling but you're cool with calling him "childish" and referring to his "pot-smoking" friends?


This isn't name calling. I never called the person anything. I'm just describing the situation.

Since when is "pot-smoking" a pejorative to HN? Isn't it pretty widely accepted?
