Which is why /u/jailbaitlover I mean /u/spez is sending the message that they would gladly give total power to whatever mod crosses the picket line so they can boot the rest.
If Reddit had to replace all these mods it would be complete chaos and is not much better than the blackout. They will see the same exact problems Twitter has seen since they fired most of their content moderators.
There’s a difference between putting a new body in and putting a quality moderator in who’s doing it because that’s what they want to be doing.
I… Don’t think they realize how much work mods do, to both cultivate the community in their subs and to keep them from become a cesspool of society.
I say just let spez mod a spicy subreddit like WSB or dataisbeautiful. You haven’t seen adult individuals decend to throwing feces at one another until they start arguing about the appropriate scale for a graph. Or one of the truecrime subs like TrueCrimeDiscussion, where every comment hidden 40 comments deep can be a dox. 🤣
