The whole ordeal is about how they feel the admins do not respect the moderators for being unpaid volunteers and keeping the site alive. Okay, then don't volunteer.

That is essentially what this is about. The mods have volunteered a lot of their time without any support from the admins, save Victoria. And Reddit sacked her, so it all came to a head.
Watched the revolt break out last night, pretty impressive. One has to wonder how long Ellen Pao can remain Reddit's CEO, as there is an evident and severe lack of clue at the top.
Also, perhaps related, the disaster that was Jesse Jackson's AMA:

Though if Reddit's BOG was shocked, they shouldn't be. When you bring in a race-baiting bigot for an AMA, you're not going to get friendly questions.
