MODERATORS
I'm guessing extremists (of both political sides, but in particular one) will be salivating at the prospect of getting moderator positions to manipulate more media.
Troll bot farms are already a thing. Who's to say the same groups aren't going to be trying to gain moderation over as many subs as they can?
Once all the good mods leave, which hasn't happened yet, it's going to be an absolute disaster
