Transparently. Pao ruined Reddit, now she clings to identity politics as her only way out of infamy. Little does she realize how deep she's digging.

By being bad at her job as CEO through having no idea what redditors wanted of the site and by trying to force particular cultural norms.

Was reddit ruined? About as much as anything so abstract that it can reinvent itself, back peddle, and change direction at a board meetings notice can be ruined.
