Has anyone else seen what's getting upvoted on Reddit? It's crazy over there. They are saying and upvoting things I thought I would never see from a public internet crowd. I really hope some kind of manipulation is going on, else it's really fucked

Reddit is part of the US military-intelligence-surveillance permanent war economy, so it reflects that perspective. Worldnews for example seems to be moderated by IOF people. A former NATO lobbyist is very high up in the company. One time Reddit let slip where their largest concentration of active users was and it was some US air force base. All dissenting views are shut down and the site gets more openly white supremacist by the day.

Can you give a source on that air force base thing? Sounds interesting

Sure, here's an archive link to Reddit's own corporate blog. The page has since been removed from the blog.
