It can't be very high if they sit and mod a conspiracy group all day. He's really gonna miss out on my grand Mountain Dew conspiracy that predicts the alteration of our genetics to make our children into spartan future soldiers.
That sub is modded by power-mods and users who mod topmindsofreddit (a watering hole for shills). I know the conspiracy sub is infested by trolls out govt, liberal/neocon establishment, but probably less compromised at mod-level than the conspiracytheories sub. Aaron Swartz must be rolling in his grave over the censorship and efforts to control the narrative via propagandistic talking points, smear campaigns, paid for likes, shares, upvotes, downvotes and reports to suppress and censor wrongthink. This is social media manipulation and Google and Youtube helps, as do "fact checkers" like Snopes, politifact, Atlantic Council/Belingcat, Factcheck.org.
Basically what MSM does to old people, these efforts aim to do to the younger online crowd. Infiltrating and co-opting subs (just as is done to leftist/progressive groups/organizations and protests using agent provacateurs) propagandizing communities and with misleading and false talking points (actual disinformation), shaping and controlling the narrative and discourse, smearing anti-war/establishment/censorship pro-free press leftists, smearing and sabotaging subs and their community if they resist. We know dems like Hillary and Biden/Kamala have people on here (Twitter and elsewhere) but I'm sure the security state does as well. Just as they scrub/sanitize Wikipedia pages to protect certain figures while editing others to smear/read as opposition research.
