I say reddit barely edges out youtube. Youtube comments suck, but the class character of youtube seems to vary more than reddit (literally, “it seems like there are more poor and non-white people on youtube than reddit”). Also people generally don’t respect youtube comments or treat them as worthwhile, whereas reddit comments are “discourse.”
it seems like there are more poor and non-white people on youtube than reddit
I have really been noticing that there is absolutely nothing from poor people on reddit, lately. Can’t find a perspective on anything that isn’t from some “middle-class” shit head.
reddit. youtube is the broad masses, reddit is the reactionary inteligencia
Youtube. Reddit can get pretty bad but Youtube comments often feature full names spouting the most vile bigotry. It’s like reading writing on the bathroom walls.
YouTube for sheer derangement
Reddit for bazinga gibberish
The average individual YouTube comment is worse, but everybody knows YouTube comments are terrible. The problem with Reddit comments is that the people who write and read them think of them as legitimate discourse.
