IIRC, the default subreddits do have mods, and a lot of them at that. So there really isn't absolute freedom except in new subreddits where the population is small enough to contain would-be delinquents with downvotes. This site also has a small population and even smaller divisions, and at this point remains largely untouched by annoyances. But how can we, as a community, prepare for a future where the scum of sites like reddit come here? Mods can be used to stave off the crazies, but copying the mod system from other sites could just push it towards the same ill-fated content that we left.
