That's kind of where I think they'd have an "in" towards a valid stance. The fact reddit forces a decorum and the laws about how websites are or aren't responsible for their content because of moderation efforts. The fact they just replaced moderators because they broke the "moderator agreement" but are self appointed volunteers are conflicting stances. This on top of Reddit repeatedly saying they are their content but contribute none of it.

I doubt anything will come of it but making Reddit pay lawyers to theorize a defense is a good waste of their money at the very least
