For anyone out there who doesn't want to browse to TikTok, the short version is that the Reddit communications staff refuses to comment on information that's being used for upcoming stories, and instead they say that they will issue corrections after the fact.
This is of course an old tactic that companies have tried to use to discredit reporters, but it doesn't work very well when you tell everyone that you're using it.
gosh spez must be the dumbest person alive. how on earth does he manage to not kill himself every day out of sheer stupidity -.-
From a New Yorker interview years ago:
It's the result of Prosperity Jesus.
They believe they're wealthy because they have natural talent. It ignores lots of people are more talented, and never got the same opportunities to be successful.
In a real apocalyptic disaster, they'd be the ones real leaders sentence to death (either overt or shunning them from the group) to set an example for the rest of the group.
