Could we compare hubski to a collection of small village communities in a larger nation of users that occasionally may interact. These interactions are,by and large, peaceful and thoughtful due to the well written constitution and it's bill of rights as created by the founding fathers of the United States of Hubski.
That seems too much like how reddit sees itself. Traditionally in online communities each community is it's own kingdom with a benevolent dictator. This is what reddit went with for a model for subreddits: each a kingdom unto itself with a top mod having final say over everything. This is why when you complain about some subreddit to the admins they'll say you should join another community or create one of your own. Not that I really have a better analogy to offer.
