He's not particularly good at making his point, but it seems his idea is that reddit failed in some way because it didn't put more censorship in place. I'd take the opposite view: reddit's failure was to abandon its ideals, that the Internet needed a platform to enable free speech not merely the theoretical possibility of free speech happening somewhere.

From a moral position like that, reddit could have facilitated dialog between opposing communities. Instead they focused on banning whatever made reddit look bad to the public - whether it was r/atheism on the frontpage or r/fatpeoplehate.
