People are literally crossing the digital picket line to scab unpaid moderator positions to do free work for admins who are using intimidation tactics against their moderator peers.
Reddit is doomed
If your money, reputation, family, friends, career, etc it’s on the line, I can understand how people would fold under pressure.
You’d literally be walking away from someone who doesn’t respect you, and then asks you to work for free.
How spineless do you have to be?
If there are mods here who are willing to work towards reopening this community, we are willing to work with you to process a Top Mod Removal request or reorder the mod team to achieve this goal if mods higher up the list are hindering reopening.
Translation: please snitch and we’ll give you control of the subreddit. We don’t have enough staff to moderate all the subreddits ourselves.
How American of them. Install your own leaders when you don’t like what they’re doing with their self-governed community

Instead of addressing complaints and working towards a solution and forcing the policies only for profit is corporate capitalism at its finest.
It’s the main reason why I’m done.
Of course the fucking Apple SIMPs bow down and submit to the wishes of Reddit
I guess the beatings will continue until the morale improves.
Reddit can go fuck themselves. If this is how they’re gonna behave, we might as well kill the site now before it can become further entrenched.
