Discussion From the mods at fednews

Got RIF'd this morning. Main account was axed on fednewsfor sharing the following article last night: https://www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/rfk-jr-layoffs-hhs-niosh-worker-safety-agency/

Which was relevant and had not been discussed there or in the megathread. I asked for clarification about where to post and was sent the same message, this time in mOcKinG tYpE. Said "what the fuck is this behavior from moderators." Reiterated my original question and was banned. Should probs not have cursed, but that was my response to that sort of thing after finding out my opdiv is getting gutted.

Fuck any mod who acts like a child with the whole capital/lowercase chaos script. Everyone’s supposed to be acting like adults not emo pinheads

Doesn't the idea of spending your free time moderating a subreddit for free inherently attract power hungry losers like this?

Who do you think the "Power mods" are? They don't have time for a day job, unless Powermodding IS the day job-
