I mean the part of the problem is people have this irrational hatred of moderators. Like obviously some of them are power tripping people but I think people sort of forget these at the end of the day volunteers who are making the place actually usable for its purpose. Obviously this isn’t to give them a free pass and they are as fallible as any other human and should be held accountable when they make mistakes but it feels so many people want a perfectly moderated space but without the mods.

Hating stupidity, abusive behaviors, and hypocrisy isn’t irrational.
i just want mods who aren’t shitty people who think they know better than everyone else. all they need to do is keep away the spam and bots.
