Reddit has called moderators actions "malicious" and against the wishes of the community members. The numbers tell a different story. These are COMMUNITY protests and marking them otherwise is simply misinformation from reddit staff.

Don't even get me started on the "It's not ok to show people NSFW content when the don't want to see it." message that reddit has been sending out. The people clearly want this and even if they didn't, REDDIT HAS A NWFW TOGGLE! As well as nswf blurring. No one who hasn't flipped that toggle is seeing nsfw content.

When spez says "We don't want to show NSFW to users" they mean they don't care how many users voted, they are saying "We don't want to give a bad impression to users that will use Reddit no matter what".
They just don't care about anything else that isn't money, if they could replace Reddit users with tiktok users they would be thrilled, even if they lose 12+ year old accounts with thousands of comments.
With this I'm not saying the protest is useless, it has the power to basically kill Reddit if enough users participate in it.

He means "NSFW hurts ad revenue"
