    Wait bro you’re a social worker?

    Are you a black male?

    If we could talk that would be great fr. I’m a sophomore social work major and I got a lot of questions about how it is and what the treatment towards black men is. I want to become a VA case manager.

    Yeah, both. You can pm me, although this site doesn't notify me when I get messages so it might take a minute for me to get back at you.

    Lost fist fight

    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

    You realize reddit has a higher active user base than twitter right? Browsing through /thedonald is a lot different than browsing through /premierleague. Don't understand how you can make such a general statement.

    Niche subs are dope, the main ones suck and imo Reddit is more subtle with racism and actually has bigger problem with sexism. I only go on there for product/service reviews and an artist subreddit I frequent

    Its all in the subs that don’t make it on the front page.

    Sometimes I’ll get high and sink 3 hours into Reddit just getting myself pissed off by searching for the most f***ed posts I can and they never cease to blow me away

    The worst part is how casual it is tho. Misogyny is pretty much just as bad too. Someone posts “I hate minorities” and it seems ironic. Someone comments “bro you shouldn’t say that even if you’re joking. It makes us look bad”
    Next reply: “I’m not kidding tho”
    “Wtf?”
    “N-words (uncensored) disgust me”

    This is the s*** you can see happen 500 different times on Reddit daily and is the so so so far from the worst on that site

    Yea I mean when half the user base is angsty teenage men of course there will be misogyny . Same way tumblr was ripe with misandry.

    But honestly I don’t follow any main subs so I can’t really say anything on the racism in there. Only sub I go on that “tolerates” hateful language is wallstreetbets, but that s*** is f***ing hilarious to me and is clearly just jokes.

    Idk if you're gonna read this op but if you go on any post that has black people in all you have to do is sort by controversial. It even leaks into Hhh all the time.

    Another good way to find them is to go to any r/music post with a black person dying (juice, xxx, etc) and you will find a lot of racist s***. The lil Wayne seizure thread was headache inducing for this reason.

    On top of that there are many subs that house supremecists but r/conservative is the biggest and pcm has many people being openly racist "but it's all fun and games because it's political jokes" - those users will even go as far as to flair up what their compass result is and there's a ton of blue and purples acting wild

    Also you can look at what happened to dababys sub too

    If you sort by best, sort that stuff by controversial and you'll see some wild s***

    I do agree for the most part it's a very liberal site but there's a lot of dark s*** mixed in

    I second this

    It’s sadly not hard at all to find a f*** ton of racism on Reddit. Just cus they push bernie s*** to the front page doesn’t mean s***

    nah cause i play devil's advocate on that site just to see reactions and even the most subtle conservative leaning comment gets me downvoted immediately.
    it's one of the most popular social media platforms tho so there is bound to be all types of views.

    Depending on your sub. Look at r/realmichigan and r/conservative

    There's soooo many secondary sub echo chambers now for conservatives and supremacists to hide in now

    Downvotes don't matter to these people, they still brigade and are still posting their "beliefs" meaning they very much are on reddit. The front page isn't even a tenth of all of reddit

    from what i have seen r/conservative aside from maybe the more controversial rated comments seems to not be white supremacist unless you're someone who considers white supremacist values to be intrinsic to conservatives

    All I got left to say is I've spent nearly a decade there and subtle racism is all over the place, blatant racism comes out in certain big threads.

    If you're barely using reddit and only look at the front page you won't see much but that's not how the site is intended to be used and the majority of users don't use it that way, since the front page sucks ass anyways
