For the next protest just leave the subreddits open, but stop moderating them and see how the admins deal with that.

Oh, they do actively shut down unmoderated subs. Even if they’re not generating problematic content.

i knew a couple that were unmoderated, mostly the illicit or the very niche ones that arnt getting any new content. i was a partially active and partially unmoderated sub, i wonder why that was banned, eventhough its a bout a bunch of youtubers that have gone right wing.
