reddit General

I haven't heard about any CP subs, but there are plenty of subs that probably have under-18 nudity slip through because they allow nudes of anonymous girls and only remove at mod discretion, which allows for a lot of leeway (she looks 18 to me!). Then you still have a few ageplay subs which are de facto for MAPs. There are also subs that still allow child models and the like, so long as the girl 'isn't sexualized' according to mod discretion.

There are plenty of Japanese porn subs where the girls look about 11 at the oldest but that could just be Asians being Asians.

Wasn't there an Hispanic porn actress who caused a massive drama bomb on those "age play" subreddits years back, because people posted pictures and video of her thinking she was under 18, but it turned out she was in her mid-twenties? If I remember right it basically ended her career because she ended up investigated by Interpol and had to publicly confirm her age, and after she did no producers wanted to book her. She was Columbian or Brazilian, I think.

Normally when people mention something like this, your instinct is to look it up and find out the story.

Then you realise searching for underage Brazilian porn is not something you want to be sticking in your search.
 
Is there anything to be done about it?

That's difficult to say. In theory yes, it should be easy. Everyone stops giving reddit money by buying those stupid emotes or gold or whatever the hell it is and leaves the site for better places. This way it becomes an example that people will not take this shit from companies or anyone actively trying to ruin a forum/community etc.

The reality however shows that people are not willing to do this. It's why YouTube and Twitter keep getting worse - no one actually wants to move to a different site that offers something better because change is scary and the alternatives are generally not as avaliable or appealing. It doesn't help that there are people that support these changes because they either benefit them or they dislike the group that was banned. Even with these changes, people are still buying reddit gold (someone on here literally posted a screenshot of a guy telling people not to guild his post because they are giving a site that is actively fucking them money so they can continue fucking them and deleting/banning people they dislike). No one is actually willing to do anything until either shit seriously hits the fan or they themselves are hit, but at that point it's too late.
 
Reddit only could become worse based on how it was designed. It was built around the idea that you should take your ball and go home instead of dealing with disagreement.
No, it was mostly ok when if you didn't like the direction a sub was going, you could go and make your own sub. This is now a bannable offense at the mods' discretion (meaning, they ban a new sub for "ban evasion" if the creator was banned from an existing kosher sub).

I think there's also a huge "politically correct" bias at play here, it's a huge taboo to talk about race, because people can change their cultures and national identities, sure, it takes a long time, but it's doable, however, people can't change their races.
A wholesome interpretation is possible (not saying it's what does currently drive that sentiment): even your birth culture is learned and earned, race you're born with.

Migrants are a cut above the rest but they will have witnessed the fate of the ones who couldn't move away. Nigerians can tell you what true poverty looks like, Indians can tell you about extreme pollution and Cubans can tell you about the horrors of communism.
Russian migrants are what's causing true poverty in Russia. I assume this holds for some other countries, too. Remember some jogger cunt threw a hissyfit in a uni trying to kick white people out of a cultural center (inb4 which one)? She was a rich "expat", not an African-American.

Sure, Ellen Pao was then ousted because of her actions but the damage was done
People have already answered with facts, opinions and theories, but that last line is easy to disprove in an instant: if she were fired for her actions, they would've been reverted.

It's one of those things that just popped back in my memory reading the post, that I'd forgotten after it happened until then. I wanna say her stuff had a presence on old internet shock sites too, the intent being to freak people out at what they thought they'd accidentally seen but really hadn't -- maybe Stile Project or Rotten back in their heyday?

Mostly I remember the reddit thing, because that was legitimately messed up.
 
Pao took the fall when knowingly unpopular actions were cemented, and then they rolled someone new in. That's the CEO's job. They get paid millions to eat shit and move on to find a new place to eat shit. If Susan ever got seriously unpopular to the point where it was affecting advertising income (hint: it's not), she'd be replaced with no material change as well. If people don't remember, Pao was only removed because during her era, people were actively fucking with the reddit advertising platform and exposing it for fraud. It would report millions more views to new, on-boarding advertisers than could be verified by subreddit owners, and this information was passed off to existing advertisers who demanded immediate course correction.

Users are not the owners of any platform, they are the product. You do not pay for reddit. You do not pay for YouTube. You do not pay for Twitter. Your attention is what is being sold, and not just in banner ads. What opinions are promoted, what people are popular, what things are liked and what things are reviled. That is all a carefully curated sales pitch from the true owners of these platforms to you, the product.

I think that was Lupe Fuentes. Some dude in Puerto Rico was charged with possession of child porn, some of which supposedly included her. She had to show her passport to show that she was 19 at the time. I don't think Reddit was involved, or at least I haven't seen anything that indicates that Reddit was being used.

Yeah that's exactly who I'm talking about, I'm glad someone besides me remembers that even if I got some of the details wrong. I forgot the prosecution actually brought in a pediatrician in that case. She was just a big favorite of the subreddits in question at the time, for obvious reasons.

I actually had forgotten the part about advertising fraud. Was it just straightforward falsified statistics, or were there allegations of exaggerated inorganic traffic to admin-favored subreddits at the time too? I never did look into those allegations at the time.

IIRC it was some sort of misunderstanding time, filtering, or accounts. I think it was a comparison of subscribers vs. unregistered daily views. Either way, the lack of clarity was the result of the advertising platform selling exaggerated statistics with unclear definitions to be more impressive.
 
Oh now I'm remembering things. If I'm remembering correctly it was that the stats sent to advertisers were vastly different from the public "users here now" and subscriber counts.

I can't remember if it was the advertiser numbers that were fraudulent or the subscriber numbers that were depressed.
 
I remember the advertiser numbers pointed out that The_Donald has 6 million active unique viewers? Imagine that wasn't daily, but who knows? The "official" numbers kept T_D down instead. T_D's sidebar was modified to brag about the "real" numbers for a long while after that.
Yeah now I'm remembering, they were fudging the subreddit subscriber counts while telling the truth to advertisers.

But just about T_D. They made so many changes specifically to fuck over T_D because of how popular it was. They changed the front page algorithm because the sub was gaming it.
 
So am I really surprised with the direction Reddit is now taking? Well not really, at least they're now finally being honest that they do have a racial bias and they're now open about hating white people while other platforms that have also gotten 'woke' keep denying that they hate anyone.

If you want me to be honest, Reddit died years ago. Reddit began to show its cracks when they began to cave to news media that would bash on them for hosting controversial content. But the floodgates wouldn't really open until then CEO of Reddit known as Ellen Pao banned the subreddit that is known as r/fatpeoplehate for 'promoting hated of fat people'. Sure Ellen Pao was ousted because of her actions but the damage was done and since then Reddit became more and more power hungry and censorship happy since then.

Now Reddit has always been pretty trashy before (it has the reputation of being filled with neckbeards and more recently far-left galaxy brains that almost makes Reddit be as bad as Twitter) but the way I see it the more they keep alienating people then eventually people are going to ditch Reddit for other platforms that aren't shit.

So here's to the death of Reddit and the other now cucked Web 2.0 platforms that sold themselves out to unhinged leftists and other dumb moral busybodies now.
IMO Reddit has been bad since they divested Aaron Schwartz and the other idealists in favor of trying to get venture capital as a consent manufacturing platform. That was years before Pao came on board.
Reddit was owned by a man who, unironically and without being a hint of a bit, married this:

Truth is, the game was rigged from the start.
I was banned once for calling her a gorilla. Trolling reddit is too easy, it's not even fun anymore.

This might be a little unrelated, but aren't most CEO's downright sociopaths?
