The first part is well said. The second part seems pessimistic.

LOTS OF WORK, DONE FOR FREE

Means that everyone everywhere always has to call out the shit when they see it. Self-reliant self-authority modding, regardless whether you made the sub or not. We all need to police each other to maintain a modicum of civility.

That's not realistic. What you will get subs that claim to be committed to some virtuous ideology, but quickly turn into fascist hate subs that decent people want nothing to do with, and so they devolve into their worst possible form. To put it another way, this website is not voat, but I see no reason why it won't become voat.

If we aren't active we will be rolled over. Don't depend on police or soldiers or mods to do it for you. Don't be lazy and don't be a coward. Stand up, if only behind your keyboard.

Be active or lie down and die.

So what is your solution?
