    The mods are being removed from many subreddits, including r/piracy. Reddit threw in the towel and decided to stop pretending they were community-moderated.

      pretending they were community-moderated.

      Unless you remember electing your mods, “community moderated” simply means “we don’t pay the jannies, they literally do it for free lol!” It was never about the “community” having a voice.

        don’t forget the supermod awkwardturtle is a proud and loud pedophile (no, not am reactionairy “he/she is not like me” way, he or she actually, for real, prey on confused teens and has “retreats” for them) saying this anything about this will get you an instant permaban on reddit

          Didn’t spez at some point moderate a very questionable sub too? Wasn’t it jailbait or something?
