You're subbed to the wrong subreddits. You could be getting a lot more out of reddit than you are. The comments here make it sound like 95% of all conversations are about race and politics, but if that's what you're seeing, then that's really just a reflection of what you're reading.
There are subreddits about everything. Most of them don't include conversations about police shootings or Islam.
- vkou 9y agoYes, the guys wearing white hoods will probably not collectively crap all over the knitting club. That doesn't make the overall situation any better, nor is it a good idea to have them make up a large part of the site's userbase. (And the only reason it seems that they aren't a problem is because moderators of more specialized reddits have to delete their posts, and ban the posters.) Some customers aren't worth keeping.
- dionidium 9y agoYou seem to concede my point, but then proceed with your argument that it's still a problem, anyway. I don't know how to respond to that except to say that I hope nobody actually listens to you. Reddit has some great communities and people shouldn't be scared to participate in them.
