It’s going to be a lot harder to pull off massive protests.

    It’s amazing to me that so many people are willing to work as unpaid moderators so that Reddit’s investors can make more money.

      There was this one post for a call for mods about “doing a social good for the community”.

      Like bro, this is a video game subreddit. And you’re doing it for free, to help another dude get really rich.

      Ideally, it would be because they care for the community they moderate, which I believe is the reason most mods do it.

      Then you have creatures like awkwardtheturtle, who knows what motivates them.

        I would assume Awkward is motivated by narcissism and/or because they’re a power-hungry freakazoid, but who knows? 🤷

          I learned if you Google “fertility doctors who used own sperm”, there isn’t one or two incidents. It’s A LOT.

          I don’t understand why anybody would do such a disgusting thing. but it helps me understand narcissism and power hungry behavior.
