To be fair, he insists that he technically was not a ratfricker. He was part of a different group doing dirty tricks for Nixon.
It's gotta be pretty embarrassing to get hacked by Iran. As far as I know they haven't demonstrated the capability to pull off this kind of thing in the past. Maybe they're getting better.

Marsey the Cat is originally an emoji pack from Telegram.
It was co-opted by the extreme right sometime last year and it is being used to signal to those "in the know" where someones allegiance lies.
Neo-Nazis tend to quickly move from dogwhistle to dogwhistle and one of the reasons they keep doing that is because it is a way in which they can troll and sow groomercord. When you point out that it's a neo-Nazi dogwhistle they will say things like "you're not sane, it's just a triple parentheses" or, in this case, "it's just a cat".
At the same time it is also used to nudge-nudge, wink-wink at their base to make it clear what their intent with the post is.
It is not surprising that admins would remove such a symbol and this "controversy" is manufactured and fake. A deliberately created hatemob because these people knew in advance that reddit would react like this. The admin they target is a visible part of the community admin team and therefore a target, because community admins visibly uphold site policy like "no racism" and neo-Nazis have a problem with that.
