This isn't even his opinion, he's literally pointing out that they specifically said the "protest" would last for a set period and after that it stops and goes back to normal
It won't be hard for them to find some mods (who didn't participate) who would jump at the opportunity at the perceived clout and authority they'd get from running a high profile sub.
Is there any possibility we could get someone to infiltrate a possible new group of moderators? I think it would be tough to do unless they had maintained a very polite profile and were very good at opsec, but we've already had discussions in this community about the possibilities to infiltrate existing reddit subs.
honestly they don't even need to. Just find someone compliant who runs "/r/video" or "/r/interestingvideos" or "/r/vibeos" and promote them to default sub.

Literally doing nothing at all
/r/videos and /r/music, both huge subreddits, have said they're doing it indefinitely.
Reddit controls the platform and will no doubt just reassign mods at some point.
Possibly, but they'd either have to find new volunteers to manage some of the largest subreddits completely unpaid, or start hiring moderators.

The fash is preparing to infiltrate, are you?
they don't even need to infiltrate, those :reddit-logo: main subs are already full of botted posts and the mods never do anything.
What would they do when they get in though? If they do anything unfriendly to advertisers they'll get removed from the position
Would be fun while it lasts, I guess.
