The title is from this video, although that one is very short.

I'm glad I've given up on Reddit after the blackout, this proposal to vote out moderators will only encourage raiding, as only the people who pay attention to the votes will decide who stays on. And let's not forget that one of the cornerstones if Reddit has always been that you can make your own sub.

It's amazing that they have had years of people complaining about mods and it's always been "if you don't like the moderation policy of a community, you can find one that better suits your tastes" but when it impacts them suddenly there is a need for a policy change and democracy.

"democracy" lol spaz manipulates everything, there's no way these votes are counted impartially.

It's like having a "Is Elmo the greatest man in history?" poll on twitter these days.

I wonder if they will in the future make Reddit even more democratic by allowing users to vote out Reddit admins, and even the CEO?
