hahaha yeah, for real he's gone off the deep end at this point > “If you’re a politician or a business owner, you are accountable to your constituents. So a politician needs to be elected, and a business owner can be fired by its shareholders,” he told NBC. “And I think, on Reddit, the analogy is closer to the landed gentry: The people who get there first get to stay there and pass it down to their descendants, and that is not democratic.” Is anyone taking him aside and saying.. bro I don't know if anyone told you this but you invented Reddit and the way it's designed. If you wanted moderators to be democratically elected you would have implemented it that way from that start. You have repeatedly ignored users throughout the years who complain about unfair moderation. You throw your hands in the air and say moderators can run subreddits however they see fit. You tell them to create their own subreddits and run it how you want. Now that the moderators are running subreddits in a way you don't like you want moderators to be democratically elected? Why don't you make your own subreddits or invent a new class of subreddits that are administered by Reddit? You could promote your official subreddits over the unofficial ones and make it extremely difficult to run a community on your own. Hell, you could make the official Reddit subreddit API free and charge out the ass for self moderated subreddits. There are so many ways you can solve the problems you created for yourself. You've already fractured the entire community into two sides, why not just rip off the bandaid and fully embrace a two-tier subreddit system?
