I mean unmoderated free speech will turn into a fascist, pedophilce cesspool. Just look at 4/8chan. Most minorities (be it LGBTQ+ people, POC, etc) won't feel welcome on a platform where a significant portion constantly attacks them, and boards specifically created for those communities would constantly be raided.
ChapoChat is moderated too, in part to deal with raids of fascist.
Definitely agree that there needs to be some moderation.
I bring this screenshot up because in the later years, Spez and Kn0thing would announce that Reddit IS a bastion of free speech, a complete 180 and bald faced lie.
Furthermore, the line about how reddit is essentially a digital place for political pamphlets is quite... grim I suppose.
