Fixed it:
“We are aware you are taking actions in support of your community, using the authority you took when took on the moderation work with it. After all, you can’t moderate without the power to moderate.
However, we are now working against the interests of your community and so your actions are against our interests. We decouple the work you’ve done and take full credit for it and so now are questioning your authority.
We realise you add tremendous value but won’t frame it that way, instead we’ll give you a chance to return to your previous, effectively surrendering.
We wish you to please consider yourself lucky that we exist as we bring so much value to you and not think that it’s definitively the other way around.
We have forgotten that we are the forum that got lucky to become THE forum and are entirely replaceable, unlike your unique content.
Please enable the CEO’s delusions.”
