Difference here is that Soros is backing Reddit. That kind of artificial financial support negates normal market pressures.

Does it?

I disagree with that. I argue that artificial support only makes the situation worse. We have plenty of evidence that proves this. Look at yahoo, that company is dying a slow pitiful death before our very eyes.

Look at any subsidized company, like GM. GM makes shit cars. Shitty, overpriced cars that suck. Every year they lose business to their competition. GM does not care, they believe that they are too big to fail, and that the guberment will come and save them. They don't innovate, they stagnate.

Reddit is the same. In 30 days voat loses it's startup credits. I predict in 15-28 days we will see a fantastic new feature, something crazy awesome. We will see this, because voat is actively fighting to survive. That is where the best innovation comes from. This is a concept liberals do not get, do not understand.

Couldn't agree more. What I meant by negating market pressures is that by Soros keeping it afloat as his leftist propaganda bullhorn it doesn't need to even break even much less turn a profit. Take away Soros and we'd see Reddit fold very quickly unless they changed drastically.
