So what happens if I instead submit a billion slasher reports that claim the eth foundation nodes have all lied, none of which contain valid evidence, and continue to do so every second. If there's no gatekeeper for these reports, then they're all valid. And they still need to be voted on, right?

Nothing, nothing happens. You can't just lie about slashing, the term "proof" is being used in the computational sense. The submission you're describing requires a cryptographic proof of that validator submitting two or more existing invalid blocks that they signed. You can't just falsify that without their private keys, so what you're suggesting is not possible.
