According to /u/Spez, Reddit CEO, the reports of messages edited without any user consent or knowledge are correct as he admits to have done it so himself:

Hey Everyone,

Yep. I messed with the "fuck u/spez" comments, replacing "spez" with r/the_donald mods for about an hour. It's been a long week here trying to unwind the r/pizzagate stuff. As much as we try to maintain a good relationship with you all, it does get old getting called a pedophile constantly. As the CEO, I shouldn't play such games, and it's all fixed now. Our community team is pretty pissed at me, so I most assuredly won't do this again.

Fuck u/spez.

The edits were made in a thread linked from the Washington Post which described the recent ban of the /r/pizzagate subreddit which tried to uncover child-molesters and recently moved to voat.co.

    Should I link some of the weird-ass sissy pr0n that's been posted lately to the TF fiction board I go to? I mean, I don't read those since I prefer the stories about strong women and Amazons. Even just the summaries are weird—like people who fantasize about wearing diapers. I don't get it, but it seems to be where PC culture is headed. (Also see every iteration of the comic code, etc.) Diapers for everyone! Yeeech.

    Even those “bimbocalypse” stories make more sense.
