Reddit decides if a community is NSFW — not the moderators.

Reddit is sending strongly-worded messages to moderators of certain subreddits that are marked as NSFW (Not Safe For Work), telling them to remove the tag or face being removed.

    When forced to make a choice between power or their principles, Reddit moderators are overwhelmingly choosing to abandon the latter.

    Oh no. Who will I work for free then?

    Doesn’t fuck spez know the meaning of the word volunteer? Mods Don’t depend on reddit, is the other way around.

      That is untrue. Reddit would do just fine without their mods. Mods dont moderate subreddits out of the goodness of their heart to volunteer their time. They do it because they like having power over their communities. Reddit is threatening to take away that power from them, which is why they all crumbled so fast. It is unbelievably easy to find new people to take power over an internet community.
