    i’m of another notion, i think its more about controlling public space for discourse itself than it is about profit… they want to sever access to whatever they might consider subversive dialogue and control the next generation’s access to it.

      Occam’s Razor.

      The only thing that matters is profits. Those profits come from advertising. The businesses doing the advertising do not want their brands associated with things that are controversial or offensive to the general public.

      Therefore Reddit is bending to their will.

      Because profits.

      No conspiracy necessary.
