No problem with that. The hypocritical part is that he argued that mods are bad, because they aren’t chosen democratically. Here’s the quote I have trouble with:

“If you’re a politician or a business owner, you are accountable to your constituents." “And I think, on Reddit, the analogy is closer to the landed gentry: The people who get there first get to stay there and pass it down to their descendants, and that is not democratic.”

He says, the mods are bad because they haven’t been elected. But neither has he.

If he wants to suppress mods because they weren’t voted in, maybe there should be a vote about his position.
