I don't agree at all. Mods are good at self-aggrandizing.....but I remember reddit before it was chock full o power mods and it wasn't really like that. Also I've been a mod and there wasn't that much objectionable content that needed to be removed. Seems like being a mod these days is setting up a bot, doing nothing, then complaining about how hard your "job" is. Oh, also making sure no posts that disagree with your personal politics are allowed to stay up.
