I have been on reddit for just about 12 years now. Something I’ve noticed over time is just how hateful the place has become. A complete outrage machine. Every single sub became filled with it. I’ve filtered so many subreddits over the last few years, it’s insane. I don’t know enough about this place to be sure, but I do hope it doesn’t become the same type of echo chamber of anger.
Real people do post hate, though, at least in some capacity. I left Facebook over a decade ago and never went back because of all the insanely hateful shit some of my family posts. My wife’s still on Facebook (marketing manager, she kinda has to be) and every once in a while she’ll show me the stuff my family is still posting.
I mean, maybe my family is just particularly shitty?
