It's not a racist site, although online forums like reddit do provide an outlet for racist trolls to run wild. I don't think members of the coli grasp just how big a site reddit is, and how many subreddits there are. r/personalfinance r/worldnews r/fitness r/futurology r/science r/technology etc...there are several valuable communities within the site. And frankly, going to page 3 or 4 of reddit's Front Page is like seeing the future. There's shyt I see on reddit's 3rd page today that will blow up on FB and Twitter 2 days from now. That's just how it is. Unless you're one of those guys that thinks reddit steals from 4-chan, which is entirely possible.
