I wonder if the bad things you mention are a large part of what makes the site popular...

  Reddit hit critical mass when Digg went under, and I think that was a short window when Reddit was both hugely popular without its toxic culture. It was kind of a "Reverse September" moment, I think. I mean obviously jailbait existed and other embarrassments, but they didn't have a heavy impact on reddit's culture like the current infighting about misogyny and the like does.
