If this is true that would be a big nail in the reddit coffin.

r/pics voted to continue with the strike by only allowing posts of pictures of John Oliver. I can see other subs starting such things as well and even if you change out the mods you will have your hands full of people making protest posts.

Somehow I have the feeling some future ML models will have a tendancy to render people that look odly like John Oliver

Several other subs are also doing similar things.

• r/art is running a John Oliver poll.

• r/evilbuildings is running a John Oliver poll.

• r/gifs passed a similar rule.

• r/iPhone is voting on a similar rule for Tim Cook.
