Because the top end of US education is still very strong, with some of the best colleges in the world.

Strong capital markets makes the US probably the easiest place to start a company and seek funding.

This is the desired result. Personally I'd love to see Reddit forcefully remove mods from top subs and have to find replacements.

1) it's a big pain, and probably takes away from their timeline of delivering worsening UX and monitization features

2) the new mods will probably be even bigger power trippers than the old ones.

These aren't inconsistent.

Freedom of speech does not mean freedom of consequences, if said consequences do not restrict future freedom of speech.

Due to the way the internet evolved, it is now the case that the majority of discourse flows through a handful of private companies.

If you are a private company absolutist, I guess you could argue that these companies have the same rights to prevent people from saying whatever they want on private property.

Others believe that these platforms are large and powerful enough to warrant a different set of views and regulatory scrutiny.
