    It’s amazing to me that so many people are willing to work as unpaid moderators so that Reddit’s investors can make more money.

      There was this one post for a call for mods about “doing a social good for the community”.

      Like bro, this is a video game subreddit. And you’re doing it for free, to help another dude get really rich.

      Ideally, it would be because they care for the community they moderate, which I believe is the reason most mods do it.

      Then you have creatures like awkwardtheturtle, who knows what motivates them.

        I would assume Awkward is motivated by narcissism and/or because they’re a power-hungry freakazoid, but who knows? 🤷

          I learned if you Google “fertility doctors who used own sperm”, there isn’t one or two incidents. It’s A LOT.

          I don’t understand why anybody would do such a disgusting thing. but it helps me understand narcissism and power hungry behavior.
