Musk 'Pressured' Reddit CEO to Silence DOGE Critics, Leaving Moderators Outraged: Report

Billionaire Tesla CEO and Trump ally Elon Musk allegedly pressured the CEO of social media platform Reddit to stifle users criticizing him or President Donald Trump, leaving platform moderators furious.

They exchanged messages just before the subreddit r/WhitePeopleofTwitter was given a temporary ban for 72 hours

Same complaint. Reddit posts with 100s or 1000s of replies were mostly a few good comments drowning in spam.
