Here’s the note Reddit sent to moderators threatening them if they don’t reopen

plans to pursue changes” that would let regular users vote moderators out more easily

I think that's a good thing in the long run. A lot of reddit moderators are absolutely shit people, and having an actual process to remove them is a good thing.

It should go without saying fuck u/spez and that his motives here are absolutely malicious in nature, but I do see some small good coming from this.

Who remembers the subreddits that Reddit did dirty?

The conservative subs got banned for promoting hate speech. If you don't want to get banned for promoting hate speech, it really is that easy.

As the saying goes, if 9 people sit down to dinner with a nazi, there are 10 nazis at the table.

I should also point out that private entities choosing not to allow you a platform for your hate speech is not censorship. You're still allowed to be a hate-mongering bigot, they're just not obligated to hand you a megaphone.

Building an echo chamber alone is hard.

The left doesn't love the state. Its a necessary evil in our current society. Dissolution of the state is a byproduct of achieving a post-capitalist society in classical Marxism. I think you're either using a wholly different definition of terms like left and right than I am, or that you're possibly confused about the naming conventions involved.
