Since Obama, the DNC has actively sought to influence and steer voters through the internet and social media, such as Twitter, Facebook and Reddit. They've ramped up censorship and control over social media (including Reddit) since the election of Donald Trump. This forum is an offshoot of 'the Gamergate forum', which means that it will draw attention one way or the other, as many have linked Gamergate 'to the rise of Donald Trump'.
That's why I agree with you on the issue of 'trolls', 'glowies' and 'counter narrative types', but they could also just be volunteers, 'socially motivated' types or online activists, or what have you. But the impending election definitely has something to do with it.
Election years are circus parades.
