Reddit’s CEO edited comments that criticized him
there are many sides to this.<p>for one, the CEO should be thinking "oh shit what did I do", because he's now responsible for every event on reddit. good job, I can't wait to see what happens, if anything.<p>for two, it really shows how violent people are towards those with differing political opinions.<p>note, I'm not referring to /r/The_Donald, I'm referring to everybody who thinks that /r/The_Donald should be shown the door with no other reason than "I don't agree with their views".<p>you're shouting at someone to shut up because you don't like what they're saying instead of arguing.<p>note, I don't like the folks there either very much, but they are people, with opinions, and they founded a place to share them, and it just so happens that they're pretty loud and easily spotted.<p>have some decency. stop calling for a total ban or witch hunts on the people you don't like, because you look <i>exactly like them</i> to the outsider. and outsiders are all over.<p>develop some common decency. your fellow man isn't as terrible as you think he is. polarization will only cause more problems.<p>spez, the CEO of reddit, can't make this conclusion, which is kind of funny. if you can't do this, then can your users? can the users who're friends of the users? do you understand how this represents your community? clearly not.<p>I'll be sitting back and watching the outcome. at the most, it's social commentary. at the least, it's cheap entertainment.
