MODERATORS
Because it's extremely easy to convince people to make conservative decisions, but they have to actually be paying some level of conscious attention to get behind progressive ideas.
people really hate being warned about the consequences of their actions.
"you can do whatever you want, and we'll make sure nothing bad happens to you" will never not win votes.
