Crushing the will of the people when it conflicts with profit? Okay, I'll finally admit I was wrong about reddit: Turns out it actually is a democracy
Don't worry, the redditors posting "fuck spez" on the /r/place revival will teach those admins!
This made me laugh...
Now, the community’s modlist currently has just one moderator: ModCodeofConduct.
What's the deal with all these forum refugees talking about the forum that made them refugees
For me this is unrelenting deliciousness. Absolutely thrilling and lovely. OMG I fricking LOVE this!!!!!!!!!
the comments are quite entertaining. yes there are the fuck spez stuff, similar to the use of emojis here on hexbear. but if you're willing to steer through the emotional fog, there are some quite humoresque responses:

Here’s my three.
u/spez was a moderator of a soft CP sub called r/ jailbait.
Reddit has killed third party apps because of greed.
Go fuck yourselves admins.I just appreciate the honest irony of that.

I'd like to be a mod because I think Spez is a dishonest creep, as is everyone involved in the ModCodeofConduct account, and I pledge to do my very best to burn all your efforts to the ground. This community will not accept scab mods.
Sorry, not trying to change your mind, I just love the freshness of it. I get the sense that r/malefashionadvice isn't having it. And I just love that their people are willing to fan the flames of a good dumbster fire.
I feel like it's a scream. About three months ago I was deplatformed from reddit for calling the mods of r/elonmusk "fucking nincompoops", this after coexisting relatively peacefully on the platform for 16 years. I find this melt down to be a delicious combination of flavors and ironies, in a "get your popcorn" kind of way. Especially given how u/spez is choosing to fall on his sword, almost like an Elon Musk mini-me. Real life comedy always beats the movies. Always.
