    If they force subs back open, mods all over the site should go on strike. If the admins don’t value mods enough to honor their word and follow their own rules, they should see what an unmoderated reddit looks like. Maybe that will be a wake up call.

      Do mods have the power to just nuke their subreddit? That’d be the biggest move. If a few big subreddits were to do this, that’d be an instant and significant loss.

      If they replace the mods and add the ability to vote out mods like they said, community should just repeatedly vote out the scabs.

        Won’t happen because the votes aren’t actually going to be votes. Reddit will just claim a majority voted in favor of kicking out the current ones, and then claim that no one wants to kick out the ones they instill

          Yeah it’s not like Reddit is a governmental body here lmao. What’s the repercussion if they fake a vote? Downvotes?
