If part of someone's work responsibilities involves screening for child abuse and other direct violence, and every other depravity a user might try to post, that worker should be given the best possible mental health support, and be paid substantially more than any minimum wage. Like anyone serving in the military and possibly subject to all the PTSD and injury that combat can entail, these moderators are standing as a thin line against the worst things humanity can do to each other. They should be given respect and every possible consideration for their sacrifice. Their demands are merely a simple first step closer to the recognition they actually deserve. I would go much further.
