This is pretty funny, but I still think it would piss investors off more if there was just a mass influx of gay porn without nsfw tags in every sub after the mod tools break. Hard to get advertisers that way. 🤷

What would really piss off investors is if nobody used the site. Posting memes to and visiting the site you’re trying to protest doesn’t achieve anything.

Don't even need porn. Just have a wave of spambots poised and ready. There's a non-zero chance many of the big moderation tools will break, and moderators using the site/official app could be overwhelmed, and I'd not be surprised if some spam/repost bot operators were waiting for precisely that moment, because the mods would be more limited in what they can do/use.

It irritates the puritans more.

That's fair. Bring on the cock!
