Prior to the protest reddit was in full support of the protest. Most polls on subs supported a shutdown. Now, seemingly every community cant understand why the protest was needed and they’re calling it a mod power trip. There is a 3rd possibility. This is an unfounded conspiracy but reddit themselves could be manipulating scores.

    Seems shady. Maybe there is a legit army of reddit protectors out there. It definitely wouldn’t surprise me if reddit employees or software was down voting.
