Keep 2 things in mind
/r/conservative assholes are running amuck across all of reddit at the moment.
And, Reddit has been known to astroturf comments in the past and I 100% guarantee that they are probably working on that to some extent right now.
Why would /r/conservative support killing third-party apps though? I don't really see the connection.
I don't think people are united in their views about Reddit. I've seen a bunch of conservatives complaining that Reddit is a "woke leftist hive-mind cesspool" and that it deserves to die. So I guess they support the blackouts because it'll lead to Reddit's death. Oh, and they also claim that Twitter is great now that all the "leftists" fled the platform because they were getting banned by Elon Musk.
The Internet is weird sometimes.
