Reddit going full mask-off 1984 huh? Next thing it’ll be illegal to downvote things Reddit likes to push… Or why even bother with the votes anyway, Reddit will just show you only the things that it deems good for you, like the benevolent Big Brother.
Fuck that place.
Also: welcome to all our new members! “We’re Not Perfect, But At Least We’re Not Reddit!” (TM)
Hopefully someone eventually leaks how much Reddit is manipulated by bots. Politics being a major sub where it’s obvious.
They even posted on the site that half of the comments in many subs are by bots, mostly political ones. Following Facebook and YouTube example by allowing more right wing to AstroTurf "center right comments"
