Social How long before the Reddit boardroom suggests that they need to expand beyond a progressive user base?

I admit i expected Reddit going public was going to be a disaster.

It has a big enough userbase so it could silo at least 2 camps that do not wanna share digital space and western quote unquote right wing users can be quite valuable.

So why not? The press is losing its ability somewhat to cancel people recently and it is facing cutback and i am somewhat doubtful about another Trump bump.That would mean reduced pressure.

Also how long before they tweak the downvote system? It is impractical and i imagine most users would be fine if like 20-50 downvotes would collapse posts not 4 or 5.
 
It has some notoriously right-wing sections with millions of users. r/conservative, r/conspiracy, probably being two of the largest.

The_Donald was huge a few years ago, but members kept going postal and killing people, so they had to shut that one down.

Who are these cancelled people I keep hearing about?

Arnie Hammer, Justine Sacco, Hulk Hogan, The head guy at Nerdist for being a bad boyfriend allegedly, Larry Summers lost his position over it, Gina Carano lost business over it...
 
You sure you've got this story correct? Perhaps you heard about someone who jumped out of a window after watching Joe's terrible latest Netflix special and lost the will to live?
Spam?

What? I'm not sure some of these people are even conservative. That Hammer dude wanted to eat people. Is that conservative these days?

Where did i say only self identified conservatives get cancelled? Nowhere.

There are people who are not progressives and not self id Conservatives.

So why cry about someone like Hammer, then? Dude had a cannibalism fetish, and the job offers dried up. Kind of seems understandable. He comes from ludicrous wealth, he'll be alright.

Cry? Me?
Why is it understandable? Is this not the movie industry?
It is not about him or his family wealth.

Well I'm glad you're keeping track.

I too am concerned about the well being of 71 year old wrestlers, obese former female fighters who someone got work in hollywood despite not being able to act.

And all those other people I've never heard of.

I'd make a thread about it but it appears you've beaten me to it.

Luckily, the TS is about reddit, so feel free to engage.

It would be if you could stick to a single subject but you're all over the place in your OP.


Does the press in America cover these people you mentioned?

Like Hogan is famous...

But the rest are bums. I'm not American so I don't know your z list celebrities.

Is your news that shit?

Or are you just making it up?

Why are you complaining about a billionaire nepo baby no longer getting movie roles because he wants to eat people? Be clear now. Tell me why I need to give a fuck?

I mean Hogan is 1000 years old and walks with a cane. I don't think he was cancelled I just think doing flying elbows off the top ropes isn't an option now.

He could barely rip his shirt at the RNC - where they were complaining about celebrities voicing their opinions on politics lol.
