You're viewing a single thread.
Reddit enables more than just racist, it's a nasty cesspool the like of 4chan, riddled with bots, the CEO himself is a POS.
It's a fucked up website but if you think it's remotely as bad as 4chan then I've assumed you've never been to /pol/. Reddit doesn't allow the n word.

I went on /pol and did Ctrl f + n word, got 7 results. Can't say reddit is even slightly that bad. I'm sure it still gets said, but it's very much looked down upon. Where in 4chan it's just a normal word, and so is the f slur.
just a normal word
how and why
._.
and they make fun of reddit when they're not the right people to make fun of reddit
It's literally rule 1...
Rule 1 Remember the human. Reddit is a place for creating community and belonging, not for attacking marginalized or vulnerable groups of people. Everyone has a right to use Reddit free of harassment, bullying, and threats of violence. Communities and users that incite violence or that promote hate based on identity or vulnerability will be banned.

Not sure what subs you're on but I can't remember the last time I saw that word outside of the r/4chan mod bot saying the comment was removed for it and they were quarantined.
Considering I got permabanned for saying if we wanted to find out if the brazen bull was a real thing we could test it on child molesters the rule is very much enforced. That's way less bad than the nword.
users are still toxic
Yes, but the site does not promote those, unlike in 4chan
lol even mods don't follow rules on reddit and there are private subs where people do whatever the hell they want.
Go to r/4chan or r/Greentext, it's all over the comment sections there
… I mean you’re preaching to the choir.
Agreed. Spez's support of The_Donald was the beginning of the end (although as he was a mod of jailbait before it was banned, it was clear that Trump wasn't the genesis of Spez's sickness), and now there's nothing left of the communities that made it great. There's hasn't been anything rewarding about contributing there since about 2014.
Same with this site. All social media. All.
