I have been on reddit for just about 12 years now. Something I’ve noticed over time is just how hateful the place has become. A complete outrage machine. Every single sub became filled with it. I’ve filtered so many subreddits over the last few years, it’s insane. I don’t know enough about this place to be sure, but I do hope it doesn’t become the same type of echo chamber of anger.

    A repeating pattern I noticed on Reddit: Whenever a video of a woman hitting a man was posted (which is of course wrong, not condoning violence at all!), the comments were always filled with hundreds of guys happily proclaiming their readiness to knock tf out a woman given the right circumstances. Just waiting for an excuse to get violent.

      I see you’ve been to /r/ActualPublicFreakouts (I don’t think what you say here necessarily is true, but if you go to the one I mentioned or any other violent sub, like /r/FightPorn, the comments will be dominated by the kind of people who likes the type of stuff the sub is made for.)
