It’s hard to put my finger on the exact problems but it feels worse than the typical decline of large subs.

This thread posted today in response to the protest shows a lot of what I mean: https://old.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/14cbtjv/who_here_is_in_favor_of_just_replacing_these_shit/

Mob mentality, selfishness, scapegoating, lack of critical thinking… It’s just so toxic compared to where it was even a year ago.

I’m excited at the prospect of building a more positive, welcoming place here to discuss the NBA.

    I don’t think that tells the full story. It really didn’t seem like there was popular support there for the blackout. The threads about it beforehand, which kept getting deleted, were full of negative comments. I think people were going to criticize it regardless, and the way the mods handled it gives people another thing to make fun of.
