Open racism and slurs are fine to post on Reddit, says CEO

Good. I don't really use reddit anymore these days, largely because of their censorship policies, but this is a step in the right direction. Free speech is an important western value, and having it available on the internet is a positive thing. Let abhorrent views be aired publicly and die by being refuted, not be hidden and fester into extremist madness.

I&#x27;m pretty sure they banned all the racist subreddits at one point. Was that not the case?<p>I&#x27;m not a fan of the more fascist aspects of the reddit userbase. There&#x27;s immense value, I think, in allowing ignorant people free speech and over-labeling things as hate speech can be dangerous. For a while the site has been more about shouting and downvotes and less about dialog.
