it seems like the people aren't getting what the admins are saying: "Look, we don't like everything you guys do here, but we'll tolerate it as long as it's not blatantly illegal and you don't attract attention from outsiders who can end up shutting us down."

Exactly my sentiments. The few, and I really do mean few, legitimate critiques in here of how this went down focus on how, exactly, you handle the situation when something does inevitably meet those criteria and cannot be tolerated. But for the most part, it's just people complaining about inaction against things that offend them and, like it or not, making those kinds of judgement calls is extremely dangerous and fundamentally antithetical to an open platform.
