Several subreddits had begun allowing porn and not safe for work content to protest Reddit. In response, the platform has removed entire moderator teams from the affected subreddits.

I get why they were trying to dialogue with Reddit Inc. at the start, but at this rate it's hopeless - a protest only makes sense if there's a reasonable chance that the other side will listen.

Instead they should be 1) encouraging migration, and 2) causing as much damage as possible in their way out, to discourage other businesses from taking the same approach.
