I have been on reddit for just about 12 years now. Something I've noticed over time is just how hateful the place has become. A complete outrage machine. Every single sub became filled with it. I've filtered so many subreddits over the last few years, it's insane. I don't know enough about this place to be sure, but I do hope it doesn't become the same type of echo chamber of anger.

Online discourse has gotten to the point that if you disagree, you’re hateful

Hate is a meaningless word now, like so many over used words in this climate

    Yep, I saw a guy comment that "communism doesnt work" the other day on here and the first reply was someone calling them a "hateful bigot" and I was confused, since nothing in the first guy's comment had anything hateful in it, just a statement about communism not working.
