    I dont know how to break this to you but there has always been a LOT of incorrect bullshit on Reddit, and it’s always done just fine.

    If the Boston Bombing didn’t do the platform in, canning surely wont.

      It’s not about Reddit. The platform will continue. It’s about the communities with some built-in danger reducing the bar for safety, potentially leading to death.

      The internet is pretty callous, but someone dying over this would be bad, right? That’s still a living person who might not do enough research or follow the unsafe article and get hurt or die. Reddit as a platform aside, and even if you or someone else believes they should have been more careful, people dying in part because of this is the issue.
