I think this is mostly what's goin on. Also I'd be pretty surprised if reddit didn't have it's own astroturfing force that accounted for a chunk of this backlash.

It certainly has a big astroturfing force. That's the whole subreddit drama with the few centralized mods owning the majority of subreddits. They're basically puppets and megaphones to amplify corporate Reddit's voice.
