Yeah it seems like this subreddit somehow attracted all of the center right austerity consultants or something. Just such animosity towards the poor and underserved and an “I’ve got mine” mentality

I think that's a big part of it. I also think DC in general, and this subreddit in particular, draw in "law & order" types from both the right and center. And local news deciding to harp on it constantly of late doesn't help.
Citations Needed did a news brief episode on it recently that's a good listen: https://soundcloud.com/citationsneeded/news-brief-dc-medias-fare-evasion-meltdown
