Before you try to claim that this anonymous post was made by someone other than the admins (ignoring the fact that it got stickied to the top of v/all, something that only the admins could do), have you tried to make a post on this subverse? It is locked to "Approved submitters". Since there is actually a mod level specifically for Submitters, that means that there are precisely 3 accounts that can make posts here:
Two of those are the admins' actual accounts, and the third is what they run the official bots on. These accounts are the least likely to be compromised out of all the accounts on the entire site. If any of those was compromised, then there is nothing any of us could do to get rid of their corruption, so it would be best to continue under the assumption that they are still clean until they prove otherwise.

how do you know an admin pressed it?
how do you know an admin posted this?
how do you know no one's forcing them with an NS letter to press this canary late after it died, publicly with multiple front page posts over days
