>Unfortunately for them, the rest of the world is coming online and has a different view of things. We’re starting to see this with India and the EU.

Reddit moderation is especially going to clash with many Europeans view on immigration from Islamic countries.

I have no idea what you're implying by that, but do you know what else clashes with "Europeans view on immigration from Islamic countries"?

Views from other Europeans.

We're not an homogenic bunch as you think.

I am not talking about raging far-right people. I meant the swing to the right among the general population and politicians.

I didn't think you were talking about anything specific. Sorry if it came out this way.

My point is that any "Europeans view on immigration from Islamic countries" will clash with the views from other europeans.

Europeans are not single-minded about those issues. Views are probably way more varied than the US. Even an European-ran Reddit would ran into the same issues.
