Ah yes, all redditors are equal, but some are more equal than others. Content contributors just matter more.

And if joe schmoe browsing the subreddit wants to vote in favor of the blackout, you're naturally gonna count that as a vote of support, even though they're not a content contributor, right?

Why, how would you count it? Because either they matter, in which case they support the blackout more than they do not as the votes have overwhelmingly demonstrated, or if you think they don't then who is left to pin the "most people like things the way they are" claim onto?
