I really don't see this to be the breaking point.
They would wait for the whole matter to blow over as usual, smother & gaslight the tribals with sweet nothings & falsehoods, distract them with inconsequential outrage bait and the whole affair would be memory holed in 1~2 years.
The users on the other hand would whine about reddit's staff and it's battalion of jannies but they would never move on from the site. They'd complain about it... but they're far too comfortable & addicted to the kind of validation that reddit provides with it's "safe spaces".
Just look at the retarded juxtaposition of people using reddit's award system to validate a post about protesting reddit.
You make a fine point there.
I was talking about the social justice movement a a whole though, not just those within the confines of Reddit. I don't think that it is sustainable.
