Destroy Reddit With Unpaid Mods

>https://www.protocol.com/bulletins/reddit-march-ipo >reddit is going public with an expected $15B valuation This is the perfect opportunity for a troll campaign that could destroy Reddit. The operation is very simple: We encourage Reddit moderators (who are unpaid) to unionize and demand wages from Reddit admins, and to shut down their subreddits until they are paid fairly. Reddit is absolutely full of leftwing Marxist types who hate big business and who love unions. If we do this we could literally see hundreds of leftwing mods on the site start shutting down every part of the website. Admins could ban the mods who do this but then guess what? The site would become completely unusable without mods, since the whole thing relies on free labor from no-life losers to keep things running. >why do this Because fuck Reddit. Convincing the leftwing mods to destroy their own site would be hilarious.

A screenshot of a text post proposes manipulating Reddit’s unpaid moderators into unionizing, demanding wages, and shutting down their subreddits to sabotage the site. A smirking young man in a suit appears below the post, creating a scheming reaction-image punchline. The joke is that Reddit’s dependence on volunteer moderators could be exploited to make the platform unusable, and the image is shared as an absurdly malicious plan or trolling reaction.
