SNOOcalypse - document, discuss, and promote the downfall of Reddit.

I disagree that this isn't implosive. If it had been normal users who applied in the comment sections of those calls for volunteers, it would be uninteresting, but powermods in particular are a frequent issue when it comes to mod abuse and the like, and seeing their spread to even more large subs is something that was both frequently-predicted and interesting to watch.

To your last sentence: The closer of "let it go" made your comment sound like the hundreds of other similar comments who want to stop seeing content about reddit. I offered the advice because there seem to be a lot of people browsing their "All" feeds and coming away upset there's so much content that displeases them. Similar advice is usually either met with either a clarification that makes the discussion more productive (which you did) or an admission that a block is the right course of action--both of which are a net positive for all involved. The "grandiose" tone or intent you imagine I had is your own cross to bear.
