All is not lost. FTA:

    Nothing to allow tyranny of the minority or majority. It’s all about free speech and open communication.
    However, this is balanced with the above spam marking, and potentially a “troll rating” that’s similar to a spam rating.

Additionally, keep in mind that if done right this could make it easier to have a moderated list. Rather than put some small set of brains in charge of keeping it clean, we just get the users to help keep it clean. Then you have a list system that is designed for a community to debate and argue while having what they want for communication without needed too much blocking human intervention.
