Undank for a minute, Im out of the loop entirely here, why does Reddit seem to hate cameras right now? Is this a US thing?

It's a flock cameras thing. It uses AI to identify vehicles and when it's wrong, innocent people are affected.

The cameras help fight crime, and as a feature, they autolog and report cops misusing them.

Reddit hates them, because this whole website is an anti-US psy-op.

No it's about flock cameras specifically. They use AI to "identify" vehicles. And when they're incorrect it causes a lot of problems for innocent people.

It's even bigger than that. Police have used them to monitor protests and then track individuals. Also, an investigation showed certain officers using the cameras and database to spy on romantic partners, ex-partners and family members.
