I think its because of the censoring of stuff which is critical of her and her husband and less about the banning of fat hate subs - See: https://twitter.com/arrington/status/609065906900066304

It especially does not help the fact that her husband was at the helm of a massive scheme that defrauded untold amounts of public workers in regards to their pension

Who you are friends with says alot about you. Who you are married to says much, much more.

Yeah, so, SHE did not censor those posts. Nor did admins. Sub moderators did. I mean, it even says that in the news articles you posted.

And who hates a woman because of something her husband did? That is just gross, medieval thinking.

You should probably check your facts on this.
I mean, I just read the news articles that that person posted. If you have evidence to the contrary of these stories, by all means bring it to light.
So the larger point is that you are triviallizing legitimate issues whithout yourself having a grasp on what those issues really are.
Uh. Is this apropos of anything? It seems unrelated to the comment you're responding to. Are you a bot?
We could say the same to you?
Are you serious? Do you even know how Reddit works?
Admins also have censoring power. I can't find it, but there was a post by I think /u/karmanaut saying that the admins were filtering out Pao-related content in a way that didn't allow mods to re-approve it.
Nah there isn't.
Let's not forget Ellen Pao's husband is an openly gay male hedge fund manager.

That to me screams that she's a big time financial schemer.
