Reddit is much worse that Facebook. Yes, Facebook. Reddit is extremely fast to censor and hide opinions, even without the knowledge of the person silenced. Different opinions are not tolerated. Completely wrong and ignorant comments get thousands of upvotes and maintain very high visibility despite stating things that can be proven false by elementary textbooks or a single google query. There's a toxic pretend-academic mindset, based around "science" and "sources" as infallable, religious-type absolute proofs of opinions. Hundreds of the top thousand posts are covert advertisement, many with fake upvotes and comments, created by either PR companies, botnets, or Reddit's own ad services. And all that without going into the toxic environment of users mindset, corrupt moderators (yes, actually taking money from companies and scammers) and other problems. Reddit is very close to everything wrong with the internet. And on top of that, they're trying to turn into a facebook-like abomination, because the anonymous, free-for-all nature of the past Reddit has not been proven to be profitable or controllable enough.
