maybe you should unsubscribe from subs you don't like. plenty of people like violent subs, like justicesurved or others.

  Mate I got news for you: they are getting so popular they are all over the front page. I sometimes wonder if Reddit has resulted in a generation completely unable of critical thinking.

    I don't understand what you mean by frontpage. it is made only from posts from subs you subscribed to. if you don't like it, unsubscribe. or the thing that bothers you is that other people like it and want to see it

      I get /r/politics all the time recommended to me, filled with hateful content. I can't "block" it even though I've looked.

        old.reddit.com is the only way to reddit.

    You're not alone! I feel exactly the same way. Not only the submission and upvoting of mean-spirited, tasteless content, but the utter sense of entitlement when someone tries to remove it: "it's our right to watch videos of people dying and being maimed!" At the same time, it seems impossible to find any sentence on Reddit that isn't just a few expletives mixed together with a stock catch phrase. That combination (ie: of depravity and vapid language) makes me snort with disgust at the idea that people conduct "serious debate" on Reddit. Maybe we should just embrace the concept of an Internet License, after all.

      > Maybe we should embrace the concept of an Internet License, after all :( Likewise. Regulation of communication is beginning to look like the only way out of this trap.
