spez implicitly supported the jailbait subreddit when he left it up for several years

spez did not work at reddit between 2009 and 2015.

On one hand yeah in that timeframe, on the other hand it's not like his homies weren't there. Further, subreddits came to exist in 2006, and people could make their own in 2008, so he had a year'ish of r/jailbait existing to do anything about it, and chose not to.
