It's not really about quantity. Reddit had subs for the content the article mentioned. I guess one way to look at it is "it's no big deal because only a tiny fraction of Reddit subs were devoted to neonazis, photos of corpses, stolen sex tapes, and child pornography." That's not how I view it.
- dionidium 8y agoI reject the framing that suggests these are the only two possibilities: 1) it’s no big deal; or 2) it’s reddit’s defining quality. Neither is true.
- charlesism 8y agoWell, I reject your framing of my framing! :) Actually, your interpretation is a fair reading of what I wrote, but I would prefer positioning 2) as "its presence is a deal-breaker." Like, if I go to a shopping center, and they leased three of their 100 lots to the KKK, NAMBLA, and ISIS... I'm probably not going back to that mall. It might not be the mall's "defining quality", but it's enough that I would think poorly of the property owners.
