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.

what you’re describing is the difference between a protest and a riot. I’m not saying the latter doesn’t have its place, but protest does intend to provoke, at least, compromise, if not capitulation. riot is the escalation when reason and civility fail, and is just an expression of collective outrage.
personally, I don’t see the point in participating in the riot, as the worst thing any of us could do to reddit is not to vandalize it, but to simply leave. en masse.
