Yep, most of the shit there is rigged, posts are rigged, comments are rigged. Whole place is rigged as fuck. They just follow whatever their sponsors tell them to do, which is basically push that teen vogue narrative that their parent company loves so much.

The covert advertisements masquerading as comments and posts used to drive me nuts when I was on Reddit years ago. The whole place is designed for mind control -- control the topics, control who posts, control who reads, control what they read.

I was on there for about the first 12 years. Those first waves of school kids before the Digg invasion were doing heavy damage. Probably even more so than "Aaron Swartz" did with his whole 'reddit-founder' scam.

But I will say that I owe my entire coffee setup to r/coffee. The locally light-roasted beans. The "Baratza Encore Conical Burr Coffee Grinder". The $9.99 French Press. The Bonavita BV382510V 1.0L Digital Variable Temperature Gooseneck Kettle. A gram scale to weigh the beans. And a (liveleak) mug. It's unfortunate that even the informative subs are populated by "redditors". That was one of the last subs I read before finally abandoning reddit entirely.

Had already given r/tea the boot when they began accepting posts about tea in bags...

But yes, pretty much everyone owning, working at, or employed by reddit should be meinkrafted in real life. Anyone living an undercover life as a secret conservative should recognize the risks they're taking as an "apparent" enemy combatant. For referencing their current location in the near furture, this article about their upcoming move is relevant: https://www.sfchronicle.com/business/article/Reddit-leases-office-in-SF-s-Mid-Market-14487015.php

It probably gets more viewers than cable TV and look at the money and effort and cabal parties they'll put together there to keep your attention.

Dude that ain't even the half of it. Reddit is owned by Advance publishing, which has controlling stakes in Discovery, and Spectrum. Reddit was conceived of as a way to promote the failing magazines from Conde Nast and Advance publishing. Such magazines as teen vogue, GQ, wired, ars technical, basically everything that defined women's fashion, nigger fashion, soy boy faggots(remember peter bright the pedo faggot that worked for them?) The new Yorker. All that leftist bullshit came from reddit's owners, and reddit was made to drive traffic to their websites. In the beginning 95% of the posts were articles associated with the parent company and official channels, but the site was small so they'd let anyone post shit.

Reddit was rigged from the beginning, and they murdered Aaron Schwartz one of the original developers, because he didn't want to play ball. He wanted to keep reddit free speech, but it was corporate owned from the get go. They made it seem like it was free speech by having the original mods and admins talk to themselves, regurgitating google knowledge. But the guiding philosophy has been of the parent company from the get go. That full on mind control leftist crap. That's why they push that shit on there, all media is in cohoots, they all push out the same message and they have their controlled opposition. They have to, because that's where the money is, these fucks are slaves to the dollars from advertisers, and reddit gives the illusion of consensus. That illusion is powerful, and is worth a fuck ton of money.
