I moderated a subreddit that went from 50k to 200k subscribers and a lot of automation makes it easier to handle standard spam, but 5-6 mods still spent a few hours every day to make it work. This doesn't show up in any sorting. That&#

It's a bit perverse to watch how the US is eating itself from the inside. Is there anything that isn't a culture war? Are there any more third rails left in a time when white replacement theory is on primetime TV?
