This guy and his girlfriend(?) were radicalized on Reddit (as per his manifesto).
When will Reddit be held accountable for encouraging violent rhetoric?
No other major social media network gets the free pass Reddit seems to get.
It's not hard to go to, say, r/Politics or AdviceAnimals and find people encouraging political violence.
- robotnikman 1y agoAnecdotal, but over the last decade I have definitely seen a rise in calls for violence on Reddit, and just more negativity in general. Mostly contained to the most popular subreddits thankfully, the small subreddits focused on niche topics thankfully stay on topic.
