Is it really protest for pricing changes at this point?
It can be about more than one thing. It started as a protest for pricing changes and then became about the lack of respect show to protestors and is slowly heading to attempts to burn it all down.
No. It's protest over a CEO who is rude to volunteer moderators.
Spez is Dolores Umbridge and we're watching Harry Potter 5 play out in real time.
Pethaps. Really, though, it's moved on to a general protest about the staggering lack of respect and disdain for the community that built Reddit spez and the executive team supporting him are showing the userbase.
I wish them all the best, and while fun, I hope eventually they realize the only way to win is to stop playing.
