    Leave Reddit!

    Not like that!

    They probably took the Reddit population at face value, not realising that so much of Reddit is either curated or controlled so that only reactionary views come through.

    When people have the freedom to say what they want without the five eyes fiddling with the algorithm, leading brigades, or outright deleting progressive and revolutionary-leaning content, the discourse and culture look very different.

    I’m not surprised that ordinary people won’t generally fall for the beehaw sales pitch. But they clearly don’t expect to ever see contradictory views.
