reddit is heavily populated by stem heads the numbers don't lie. the humour is super forced and it's like a cubs scout meeting with everyone trying to one up each other super lame imo.
the lowkey subs is where reddit shines where the discussion is much more natural and relaxed.
not hating on reddit because i use it alot it's just the popular subs can get toxic very heavily and it's pretty pants for poltical discussion due to tribalism.
r/mma the only subreddit that isn't complete ass to me, hiphopheads is okay but the base is pretty butt
Reddit is plagued with subtle racism. They come at white supremacists but don't even realize when they are being racists themselves. I still frequent reddit, but avoid the comments
r/unpopularopinion and the amount of love some of those insane posts got is a perfect example of this
That whole r/waterniggas controversy was stupid asf too. Tons of ignorant privileged s***

Yeah, the whole site, especially before the updated version, looks like it was designed for STEM folks.
I get you about the cringeworthy humor. It can be funny, but sometimes they stretch it to the point where it just isn't anymore. You see these "chain" jokes where one person says something funny and others continue along. The ones towards the bottom are often the cringiest and most forced.
I'm a guy pursuing STEM, so it feels a little weird knowing STEM folks have this reputation. I noticed things changing with us younger folks, though.
I rarely go on reddit and even then it’s usually to find sports streams. There is a problem with racism on this site though and I’m not talking about white supremacy
some have already said this but back in the day its free speech absolutism allowed a bunch of racist subreddits to flourish
nowadays even the relatively edgy remaining subs are really nothing like they were back in the day

Shut up c***

On ktt or reddit? And what are you referring to?

Here, there seems to be a lot of black v asian racism, nothing too aggressive but subtle stuff. Still not good regardless of the severity though
The anonymity the internet gives people really shows the true colours of these racist pieces of s***s
Even though people claim that Reddit is mostly left leaning (they’re technically correct), from my experience there were still good amount of racism spread through various subs. Just sort by controversial and you’ll find them, sometimes they be at the top too.
That’s why I stopped using Reddit, people are just mostly negative on there and the added racism doesn’t help
Ps: Serena Williams admitted that she thought him to use wash cloths, he's just wrong all the way around
Reddit is the reason for 4 Chan etc?
4chan is older than Reddit
