Reddit employees are also moderators that also directly influence public opinion and encourage witch hunts.
It’s a systemic Reddit-the-company issue. Google “Ethan Klein vs Reddit” if you want to go down a recent rabbit hole
Klein's case is about copyright (and a somewhat thin claim at that; it sure smells a lot like "I'm attempting to use copyright to quash criticism of me," and if the judge decides that's what's actually going on, he's going to lose his case). Unless I missed an update, he's suing Reddit to try and de-anonymize some people running the subreddit so that they can be properly the target of his copyright lawsuit.
Worth noting: he does not appear to have filed for defamation, which would be the thing he could complain if what they were saying was materially untrue.
