> We need to recognize that reddit is a hate and porn site that has successfully masked its true nature with a thick layer of social chatter. Rubbish. Speaking specifically towards hate (I have no moral objection to consentually created porn), the highlighted subreddits make up a microscopic fraction of reddit's content and traffic. One might just as easily say 'The internet is a tool for the propagation of hate'. I'm perfectly willing to entertain an argument that reddit ought to censor more heavily (frankly, I'm not sure I've developed an opinion either way), but the implication that reddit is about hate, that this is what it's for, looks plainly ridiculous to me.
