A moderator of r/AgainstHateSubreddits is directly harassing users.
— Reddit Lies (@reddit_lies) February 24, 2023
They're demanding users refund Hogwarts Legacy, donate the money to a trans charity, and send proof to Bardfinn.
If users don't comply, the mod is threatening to ban them from several popular subreddits. pic.twitter.com/gjmk17bdao

I'd love to stage a fake Janny vs Admin civil war with Bardy at the crux.
Message a bunch of users in subs that ahs drools over, like /r/conspiracy and /r/politicalcompassmemes. Talk about how reddit has failed to take action and doesn't provide adequate moderation cowtools. Tell the user this is a trial run of a third-party moderation service adding them to a private watchlist as a warning, insist it is legal under TOS just like 3rd party browser extensions.
Tell them they can remove their first warning with a $5 donation to trans charities, but later ones will require a consultation fee since the user is not owed their time to explain what they did wrong. (Fake Bardy would provide a screenshot of a receipt to Dallas Hope Charities, maybe others, with poorly obscured name, since you have to give the /r/conspiracy schizos some fun activities. Important to leak the right name that google links to kiwi and reddit as top results.)
I've even researched a few Reddit accounts you could say are authorized correspondence accounts to message, with the original messages looking like several different bots. These are accounts that are years old, but no posts/comments, and could be linked to Bardy with the right nudge to /r/conspiracy.
/u/TexasBard /u/GarlandGirl /u/Pennyfinn /u/WickedPenny /u/OakenBard
The goal would be to not be obvious about it being fake Bardfinn, but to create fun activities to make schizos think they discovered a secret. Also include 1 alt of a couple powerjannies, the ones with a shared moderation sub that makes the link easy but not obvious.
Keep it vague, like "one or more moderators in a community you recently visited has elected to use this service", so even the jannies might doubt eachother.
I'm mostly a phonecel, otherwise I would try to start setting up fake /u/ahsReview13 accounts to sit on for a bit, and gather some names of frequent /r/conspiracy posters.

First draft, I'm gonna do it:
Extremist Activity has been Flagged
You have been flagged as a potential extremist actor. Your recent posts and comments have been digitally archived and will be processed by our anti-disinformation service provider. You may suffer a reduced reputation score on other websites sharing this policy.
Youβre receiving this message for having the top 1% of participation on the hate subreddit /r/conspiracy. /r/conspiracy is known for spreading dangerous anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, anti-government rhetoric, and inciting right-wing extremism. We believe it is in your best interest to cease this activity.
Due to an outbreak of right-wing terrorism, Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLU) has begun a program which uses disinformation service Zignal to combat hate on the internet. They have reached out to a number of communities on Facebook, Twitter and Reddit to adopt their moderation standards and anti-disinformation cowtools. /r/AgainstHateSubreddits is the first Reddit community group to become SPLC-approved.
Reddit has not provided their moderators with adequate means to prevent hate, and chooses to allow bad actors to exist and undermine public discourse on its platform. It is for this reason that we are undertaking this effort on behalf of SPLC.
AHS is the foremost subreddit for preventing hate, fostering inclusivity, and cultivating love sitewide. Weβve maintained a good reputation on reddit for seven years and have worked directly with admins to ban hateful subreddits such as /r/wifebeaters, /r/NoNewNormal, /r/TERF, /r/drama, /r/FullFascism, and many others. We are now taking a great leap forward in the fight against disinformation.
This message was sent automatically. Do not message the AHS modmail, /u/bardfinn, or other AHS moderators regarding this policy. Any mail will be discarded.
