There’s a lot of people saying

“Can we not do that reddit thing here?”

Like it or hate it, reddit is a monolithic cultural icon. The things you think are “reddit” things are part of the most popular internet culture.

Have you not heard of Barbara Streisand? As reddit fractures, it’s culture will bleed into every corner of the web their users occupy.

You will not contain a culture with your opinions or words. Your options are:

Accept it. Bite your tongue. Downvote. Don’t engage.

Or

Be miserable.

For the love of God, stop complaining about it and trying to control it. Barbara Streisand.
