This is classic case of low IQ vs high IQ.

The moderators (low IQ) somehow think they will partake in the financial success of the company. First they willingly worked for free and can leave at any time, second even if reddit is forced to hire moderators, they will just contract that out like ********, twitter, onlyfans ect all do. The moderators wouldnt even be reddit employees. Third we will see very soon that even those contract jobs will be replaced by AI, i mean most AI has already been pre-loaded and trained on all the same marxist totalitarian ideology that reddit mods love to enforce, you can just replace them with AI if they quit working for free.


As for the CEO (high IQ), it was a genius move to pay himself out in salary and also shows that he may be unsure of the future of the company. A lot of times owners/ CEOs of start ups will take low pay in return for shares and growth of the company. But now that he cashed out 200 million that is his forever, so if reddit stock tanks, if they go bankrupt, if they become the next MySpace and worthless, none of that matters to him because he paid himself a sky high salary while making zero profit and he invested that money else where. All the low IQ redditors could cheer if the company collapses and it doesnt matter CEO Shiekelstein Cuckerberg will still live in his gated mansion.

BTW, dont wanna read too much on Reddit.

What is the source of funding from reddit up until this IPO if they do not make money to even scratch the surface of profitability? Tech investor money?

Did he take out 200m just from their funding or he will take it out when they IPO? Also, if the company is on shaky grounds why would any major fund buy into the public stock?

LOL this. There is a whole science behind tricking young people to "fight for their cause" and do things they think are meaningful and will end up with some kind of reward. Was reading how media companies paying not even close to min wage to young journalism grads who think they are being real journalists.

Illusion of a cause and early authority works in a lot of scenarios.

Not exactly the same but I read somewhere that young people compete for applications to star in K-Pop music videos with some irrelevant cameo roles.

So that is that operational cost for free.

People do it to themselves. They believe the lies about if you just work hard you too blah blah blah.

lol, in a capitalist society, you are either exploiting, or being exploited. It you are in any position of authority in a company, you are likely experiencing both.

Everyone knows this, but they still get upset about it when it is shown to them.
In a capitalist society, it is up to you to determine what the output of your work is worth.

These people have determined that their output is worth zero. So therefore they are paid zero.

Who's fault is that?

What the ****?

The market determines what the output of your work is worth.

Yes, you are free to place whatever price tag you want but whether it manifests is determined by market dynamics.

Yes. So they were stupid and didn't do their research, and came up on their own with a value of zero.

You realize everybody is part of the market right? So mods being paid zero are part of the market.

You do know that there lots of people that are overpaid and lots that are underpaid compared to the average yes?

Those moderators are getting paid in allowing them to control something, which is the reason anybody becomes an unpaid mod.

To give someone who has zero control the ability to control something in their life is a powerful thing.

But when they do their research they will come up with the conclusion that their "skills" and "services" are worth virtually zero?


IMHO, this is volunteer activity - which is part of the market as well but they just misplaced their efforts for a for-profit company.

There are lots of paid mods. Twitter, Google, ******** have paid mods. I have no idea what they're paid, but they are paid.

Redditors are a special kind of stupid.

If you're willing to do it for free, that's what it's worth.

If they wanted to get paid, they shouldn't perform the duties for free.

Perhaps, but as people suggested above a lot of these folk might have a kinky hobby that satisfies them more than minimum wage.

I highly doubt the other companies give so much power to mods. That there liberal authoritarian high is very good.

Of course. It isn't about what deals he might have offered them in the past, it is about saying you have been a huge factor in me making this money-it needs to be distributed in a more fair way. I can still take 100 million-which I cannot spend in my lifetime & the rest to be distributed evenly. Where are these people's decency, gratitude, moral fibre etc?

These people are repulsive-that kunt who fixed medicine prices so high for nothing other than beyond obscene personal gain, not caring that people would die & sat there laughing about it in court, until the judge rebuked him. Musk who wastes 40 billion plus on Twitter & celebrates every time one of his pointless, nauseatingly expensive rockets blows up in space-while most of the world starves. Bezos whose workers are told to piss themselves rather than being allowed to go to the toilet & many who are calling emergency services saying they want to kill themselves. Fuk all of these parasites.

Reddit's been talking about an IPO for years. Years. Why didn't the mods demand to get paid? Demand to get shares? Oh right, because they have no idea how to persuade people.

What's your job? How much does your big boss make?

That little bit of power is likely the only power they have ever experienced in their life. It has gone straight to their heads and made them delusional enough to actually demand to be paid. It is beyond cringe.

Why the fk would you pay mods there?

Anyone can create a sub reddit and be a mod... you cant just "create" a position and expect pay

Soys, when will they learn
