I've been seeing a lot of pro-reddit, anti-mod comments, despite tens of thousands of up votes on Reddit blackout posts. Pro-reddit comments also have a ton of gold for some reason.

Is reddit trying to change the narrative towards hating on mods for "ruining everything" before they try and remove them?

I suspect there's also sampling bias. The types who are still using reddit are not the same who were heavily in support of the blackouts.

I'm seeing this a lot in the stickies for reopened subs discussing whether they want to continue the blackout. Last week they all wanted to protest, this week they don't want it anymore and prefer the sub to stay up. It's likely a different subset of people commenting.
