He would be the perfect person to AMA as he’s already associated with Reddit revolts, and it would result in tremendous media coverage and mark fediverse as a viable alternative to Reddit. What do you think?

Bit of a longer TLDR including context, I’ll call it a TLDDD (too long, didn’t deep dive):
Doreen was a moderator of /r/antiwork, she went on Fox News to present the subreddit and why it was so interesting to so many. This wasn’t agreed upon by the community or the other moderators.
Fox immediately tried to frame it as people just sucking off the teat of “corporate america” and not wanting to work. In reaction to this, Doreen failed to actually make any arguments that a Fox News viewer would understand and even played directly into the propagandist’s hands by using out of context philosophies like “laziness is a virtue” and saying that she worked as a dog walker.
On top of this, Doreen was incredibly unpresentable in the video and looked like your average, basement-dwelling netizen, sitting in a dimly lit room with a 2010s webcam. For the right-wingers at fox, she was the perfect image of what they imagine leftists to be like:
Here’s a screenshot from the interview to give you an idea of what I mean by unkempt and unpresentable
Not even walker. They just had to mind the dogs, but they got fired from that job because they were sleeping on the job, then were bewildered that they got fired.
Thanks!
Please delete this duplicate response, it’s very long and makes it harder to scroll the thread/see my comment. I don’t mean to be rude.
I deleted the other comment first, when I realized I didn’t reply to the comment asking for more info, and then posted this. Perhaps something fucky with how lemmy served the page to you or deleted the post?
Oh shit, my bad. I’m almost certain it’s because we are on lemmy.ml, this server has been having issues. Sometimes my comments don’t show up for hours.
Your other comment still appears for me now, undeleted with 3 upvotes. But if I go to feddit.de I can see it’s been deleted.
I should have just let you handle it, woops.
I wonder if you can see my other comment on this thread where I uploaded the video itself? Maybe that hasn’t loaded for everyone yet, although it was posted over an hour ago
Growing pains ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
All good! Yes, I can see your comment linking the video :)
Ok cool. How are things over at feddit.de? Server holding up ok?
Sh.itjust.works has been stable since day 1 and showing no signs of weakness. God bless our admin,TheDude
Yeah, had 1-2 issues in the first 3 days but that was about it. Working great on browser and mlem
