You act like the admins have any real power.. They don't. The abilities of an admin are fairly limited in scope, and none are permanent. Most admins do not derive great joy from the enhanced access, because every use of it is a chance to be called out and need to answer to your actions. The community can see how an admin uses their abilities. People have been deadmined. There are over 500 admins. Any can undo the action of any other. It would be ludicrous to claim there was a single large group of this size that conspired against someone.
In short, adminship *is* no big deal.. even though we make a big deal of it sometimes. As a result, don't expect anyone to get to worked up over your rant. If you've spotted something broken that only an admin can fix (such as a mistaken administrative action), assume good faith.. point it out.. and we'll all work together to make things run better.
