If they replace the mods with sympathetic mods, then maybe they can weather the protests.
Question 1 is can they find cooperative mods who will not betray them.
Question 2 is will they steer the community in the same way as the previous mods? Mods, for better or for worse, dictate the culture of a community.

Q2) No. The communities are already failing just because the exodus of power users is causing a lack of self-moderation via up/down votes. Add to that random tyrants who haven't built the community, and there is no way for them to survive.
