As a lowly redditor I feel this has become a fight between a nomenclatura of moderators and Reddit. The moderators believe they are taking the rightful fight, but as far as I am concerned, they they don't represent a community since they are not elected by it. They elect themselves, right? So this is less of a grass roots movement than it may appear.
